Welcome to the World in Ten.
In an increasingly uncertain world, this is The Times' daily podcast dedicated to global security.
Today with me, Stuart Willey.
At the weekend, we generally bring you extended interviews from Times Radio's front line,
and there'll be another of those tomorrow.
But today we're taking the opportunity to catch up with Christina Lam.
Christina is Chief Foreign Correspondent of the Sunday Times,
and in her 37-year career has reported from far and wide, including most of the world's conflict zones.
So we jumped at the chance to catch up with her on a recent visit to the newsroom here in London.
Christina, welcome to the World in Ten.
Thank you.
They say the only constant in life is change, and at the moment it feels like everything's changing.
What are you making of it all?
Everything, everywhere, all at once.
Yeah, I've never known a time like it, I have to say, in 30s, seven years of being a foreign correspondent.
Everything that we kind of, I suppose, took for granted, for example,
that the US was on the same side as Europe but now all seems to be very much up in the air.
And you can say, well,
Europe took advantage of the United States for years and just kind of assumed that they always had our backs,
and so should have been better prepared, but it's easy to be wise after the event.
