Joshua Yaffa is a correspondent for\xa0The New Yorker, the author of\xa0Between Two Fires: Truth, Ambition, and Compromise in Putin's Russia, and has been reporting from Ukraine for the last several weeks. His most recent article is\xa0"What the Russian Invasion Has Done to Ukraine."\n\u201cI\u2019m not at all a conflict reporter. I don't like it, though who would like being in these situations? But this is the story, right? If you cover this part of the world, if the war in 2014 felt like the tectonic plates of history were shifting, now they're just erupting, crashing. This is the asteroid-impact event for this part of the world with effects that will last similarly long going forward.\u201d\nShow notes:\n\n@yaffaesque\n\njoshuayaffa.com\n\nYaffa on Longform\n\nLongform Podcast #379: Joshua Yaffa\n\nYaffa's\xa0New Yorker\xa0archive\n\n03:00\xa0"On the Road With Ukraine's Refugees"\xa0(Sabrina Tavernise \u2022 The Daily \u2022 Mar 2022)\n\n7:00\xa0"What the Russian Invasion Has Done to Ukraine"\xa0(New Yorker \u2022 Mar 2022)\n\n12:00\xa0"Ukraine's Unlikely New President, Promising a New Style of Politics, Gets a Taste of Trump's Swamp"\xa0(New Yorker \u2022 Oct 2019)\n\n33:00\xa0"In the Rubble of Kharkiv, Survivors Make Their Stand: \u2018It\u2019s a War, and It\u2019s a Dirty War\u2019"\xa0(Yaroslav Trofimov \u2022 Wall Street Journal \u2022 Mar 2022)\n\n33:00\xa0"A Russian airstrike kills 9 civilians in Mykolaiv"\xa0(Michael Schwirtz \u2022 New York Times \u2022 Mar 2022)\n\n\nLearn more about your ad choices.
