UDSS is pleased to share a final reminder for an HAC-hosted live panel Q&A with The Telegraph’s award-winning podcast Ukraine: The Latest.
UDSS Co-Chair General Sir Richard Barrons KCB CBE will join podcast presenters and guest experts — including Orysia Lutsevych (Chatham House) — to examine the current state of the war, the UK’s response, and the evolving role of the Armed Forces and Reserves.
