Intelligence Squared

Are Vladimir Putin's days numbered? Or is the Russian leader as strong as ever? New from Intelligence Squared we bring you a subscriber exclusive series 'After Putin' where we explore whether after twenty three years of rule in Russia Putin's time in power is coming to an end. Through interviews with policy-makers, military personnel, journalists and academics, we reflect on whether a mutiny led by Yevgeny Prighozin's Wagner forces on Saturday June 24 2023 has set the wheels in motion for a Russia without Putin and what could come next.  In this first episode we're joined by Anne Applebaum and Owen Matthews to discuss whether Putin has lost control.  The episode is hosted and produced by Conor Boyle.  Clips from: MSNBC, DW News, Sky News Music: - 220522 piano loop by donaldtimo The first two episodes will be available to all, here on the Intelligence Squared podcast.
