    Ukraine Part Two: Ralph Goff & Glenn Corn - CIA Directorate of Operations (Ret.)

    For the last year or so, I’ve traveled regularly to Ukraine to cover the war for The Australian Financial Review. My travelling companions have been Ralph Goff and Glenn Corn, two recently retired intelligence officers from the CIA's Directorate of Operations. We sat down in Kyiv on the last night of a recent trip to discuss current developments. Thank you to Ukrainian artist Indie Elephant for contributing some of the score.
