Russian-born journalist Julia Ioffe is one of America’s most influential voices on Russia-US relations, reporting on Putin’s regime for over 15 years. Her new book, Motherland – which has been longlisted for the 2025 National Book Award for Non-Fiction – tells the stories of the many women who have shaped modern Russia, from feminist revolutionaries to the fearless members of Pussy Riot and Yulia Navalnaya. In December 2025, Ioffe joined CNN chief international correspondent Clarissa Ward to share her insights on life inside Putin’s Russia and the possibilities for political change. She explored the history of modern Russia through the lives of its women, from the Bolshevik revolution to the present day, shining a spotlight on the remarkable women who, with enormous courage, defy Putin’s regime and are fighting for a better future for their country.

  • Welcome to Intelligence Squared, where great minds meet.

  • I'm producer Mia Sorrenti.

  • For this episode,

  • we're rejoining for part two of our live event with award-winning journalist Julia Joffet.

  • Joffet joined us recently at the Kiln Theatre in London to discuss Putin,

  • Russia, and the women fighting for a better future.

  • She explored the history of modern Russia through the lives of its women.

  • from the Bolshevik Revolution to today,

  • then shining a spotlight on those who courageously defy the regime.

  • She was in conversation with Clarissa Ward, CNN Chief International Correspondent.

  • If you haven't heard part one, we recommend jumping back an episode to get up to speed.

  • And a minor content warning that this episode does contain some strong language.

  • Let's rejoin the conversation now, live at the Kiln Theatre in London.

  • you have this kind of surge in the influence of traditional values,

  • of the Orthodox Church, is that the most,

  • and I understand as well exactly what you're saying,

  • there's kind of a backlash against this like enforced emancipation,

  • which basically is just adding another job.

  • without the support needed.

  • Is that when you start to see the real shift?
