As Ukraine and Russia are about to hold another round of peace talks, this time in Geneva, key territorial disputes remain unresolved, with Russia maintaining an uncompromising stance on seizing large parts of eastern and southern Ukraine.
Bohdan Nahaylo, Editor-in-Chief of the Kyiv Post, joined this episode of World Talks to discuss what to expect ahead of the Geneva talks, emphasizing that major breakthroughs are unlikely.

Meanwhile, Ukraine is pursuing internal reforms, highlighted by the arrest of former Energy Minister Herman Halushchenko in a major corruption case, signaling a commitment to accountability despite the pressures of war.
