RUSSIAN TANKS have poured into Ukraine in what is all-out war. Host Anne McElvoy asks The Economist‘s editor-in-chief Zanny Minton Beddoes, defence editor Shashank Joshi and business affairs editor Patrick Foulis whether Ukraine’s defensive capabilities can withstand Russian forces, and we assess Vladimir Putin’s endgame. Also, we analyse the financial fallout of war and the effectiveness of Western-imposed sanctions. Runtime: 31 min
