RADIO WAR DAY 1,056: Hegseth, Rubio, and Ukraine

Russian missiles pounded Ukraine's border with Poland in a desperate bid to cripple critical infrastructure, but Ukraine remains operational with heat, water, and electricity this winter—proving resilience.

Meanwhile, Trump’s Defense and State nominees share mixed messages about Ukraine's fight for freedom, echoing 2018 clashes over Europe's energy dependence on Russia.

As new leadership emerges, questions loom: will Washington recognize Ukraine as an ally offering unmatched battlefield expertise, innovation, and resources—or push for neutrality, which Ukrainians equate with death? Watch for insights into Ukraine’s pivotal role on the world stage.

RADIO WAR DAY 1,057: UK Prime Minister Faces Russian Drones in Kyiv—A 100-Year Pact Announced

LVIV—In a dramatic visit to Kyiv, the UK Prime Minister arrived by train not long before Russian drone strikes targeted the heart of the city—mere blocks from high-level meetings with Ukrainian leaders.

This report delves into the clash of ideals, the untold strength of Ukraine's grassroots war effort, and why some argue Western intelligence overlooks the true heartbeat of this nation.
