Luke Harding: Susan Ward Memorial Talk - Trump, Putin And The New Age Of Conquest
A gripping, on-the-ground account from the award-winning foreign correspondent of a world sliding back into great-power rivalry.
Trump's America backs Putin's war in Ukraine, Europe is recast as an enemy, and an anti-West bloc of China, Russia, Iran and North Korea emerges.
Travelling from bombed Ukrainian villages to Korea's divided peninsula, Luke Harding captures a dangerous new age of conquest where modern firepower meets 19th-century imperial ambition.
