You're listening to Monocle on Saturday, first broadcast on 22 February 2025 on Monocle Radio.
Hello there, It's Emma Nelson here broadcasting to you live from Midori House in London.
This is Monocle on and on today's program,
we'll be looking through the week's news and culture with Simon Brooke.
Simon, good morning.
What keeps us.
Good morning.
Well,
the FT has an interesting analysis of just where we are
with regard to President Trump's initiative to bring peace to Ukraine
and his relationship.
The bromance continues with President Putin.
Thank you very much indeed for that.
Then we'll be hearing from Georgina Godwin on her travels.
Our literary event was a private salon hosted
in the home of Smita Bajaj of the Jacaranda Literary Agency
and attended by her stellar list of local authors.
More from Georgina in a moment.
That's all coming up on Monocle on Saturday with me, Emma Nelson.
First though, a look at the headlines.
