It's been a potentially monumental day as Russia says it’s drastically pulling back its assault on Kyiv and Chernihiv. US officials say they see a major strategy shift on the ground, as Moscow appears to be pulling its forces away. Russia’s defense minister this morning said the main tasks of their operation are completed. And Turkey’s foreign minister hailed today’s negotiations in Istanbul as the “most meaningful progress” yet. Joining the show to analyze these myriad developments are former US Ambassador to NATO Ivo Daalder and the Director General of Russia's International Affairs Council Andrey Kortunov.
Also appearing in today's episode: the UN’s Matilda Bogner, who is heading up their human rights monitoring mission in Ukraine; and David Beasley, executive director of the World Food Programme.
