Ambassador John Bolton, who served as National Security Adviser under President Donald Trump, tells Ukrainecast that another Trump presidency would leave Ukraine in a very difficult position and that if re-elected Trump would cut off US aid. He also warns against the democratic presidential candidate, Kamala Harris, insisting that neither option would be good for Ukraine’s fight against Russia.

And he gives his verdict on Russia’s President Putin who he has met on several occasions - calling him a ‘cold blooded’ individual who has had the same agenda for the last twenty-five years.

Today’s episode is presented by Jamie Coomarasamy and Vitaly Shevchenko.

The producers were Clare Williamson, Arsenii Sokolov, Cordelia Hemming and Ivana Davidovic. The technical producer was Dafydd Evans. The series producer is Tim Walklate. The senior news editor is Richard Fenton-Smith.
