31 分钟You're listening to the Briefing, first broadcast on the 20th of November, 2024 on Monocle Radio.
Hello and welcome to the Briefing, broadcasting live from our studios here at Midori House in London.
I'm Chris Chermak.
Coming up on Today's program, the U.S.
embassy in Kyiv closes out of an abundance of caution amid fears of a major Russian missile attack.
But what are Ukrainians making of the warning after that?
In the run up to the elections, Austrian Chancellor and People's Party leader Karl Niehammer admitted that the political establishment had been left playing catch up.
Austria's current chancellor appears to have a deal to remain chancellor despite his party losing September's elections.
We'll also look at a plan by Australian authors to educate their politicians on the Middle East.
We'll get a fashion roundup.
And we'll hear from Monaco's Chris Lord, recently back from Los Angeles, about the city's new sanctuary city ordinance.
All that right here on the Briefing with me, Chris Termack.
As Russia's invasion of Ukraine passes the 1000 day mark, it would appear that both sides are looking to consolidate gains before Donald Trump enters office.
With Vladimir Putin reportedly ready for some kind of conversation today, the United States Embassy in Kyiv and others have closed over fear of a major missile attack by Russia.
The news coming just as the Biden administration has agreed to give anti personnel mines to Ukraine to halt the forward progress of Russian forces in the East.
Well, joining us for the latest is Olga Tokaryuk, Monaco's Ukraine correspondent and a Chatham House Academy fellow.
Olga, always good to have you on the show.
There's a lot of news to get to, but let's start with this US Embassy warning.
What are Ukrainians making of it?
Hi, Chris, and thank you for having me.
