Episode 17. Frankly Speaking Podcast Series: Special Focus on the Russian invasion of Ukraine
23 June 2022: In Episode 17 of Friends of Europe’s Frankly Speaking Podcast’s special on the war in Ukraine, host Jamie Shea is joined by our Senior Fellow for Peace, Security and Defence, Paul Taylor. We discuss the connections between space-based capabilities and the surprisingly significant role they have played in the evolution of the Ukrainian conflict. Fresh off the launch of Taylor’s latest European Defence Study entitled “Running out of space: European security in space” on 20 June, we cover the power dynamics that exist between vying nations, from powering the internet, to running our banking systems, and why it matters for Europe. Tune in to find out what our speakers have to say.
