58 分钟With you at the center of it all.
UBS.
Banking is our craft.
You're listening to The Globalist, first broadcast on the 12th of May 2025 on Monocle Radio.
The Globalist, in association with UBS.
Live from London, this is The Globalist with me, Emma Nelson.
A very warm welcome to today's programme.
Coming up, Vladimir Putin says it's time to talk directly with Ukraine.
We do not rule out that during these negotiations it will be possible to agree on a new truce,
a new ceasefire.
We examine why the Russian president has decided that this Thursday in Istanbul is the right time and the right place to engage in direct discussions with Kyiv.
and whether this will mean President Zelensky and Putin will meet face to face.
Also coming up, a fresh round of talks between Iran and the US.
We'll hear the latest on any progress made over the weekend.
And also ahead,
Albania elected a new parliament yesterday in a poll seen as critical to the country's path to EU membership.
We'll have the latest.
Plus, the papers and...
The unbridled joy of an outdoor sauna.
That's all ahead on The Globalist, live from London.
