    Is Ukraine winning the war?

    Welcome to the first episode of Mildly Alarmed, a new weekly podcast about European and global security hosted by Anastasiia Lapatina, Fabian Hoffman, Minna Ålander, and Karen-Anna Eggen. To set up the show, we are dedicating the first three episodes to recent trends in Ukraine, Europe, and global security. This episode dives into the state of the war in Ukraine. With things looking brighter for Ukraine after a brutal winter, we discuss if they are headed for victory, and if the peace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia have achieved anything.
