Summary
Economic support, drone capability, defence under new management: the tide may have turned for Ukraine. But domestic politics and perceptions will define what kind of win the country might hope for. We examine how Home Depot, the world’s largest DIY chain, is a window into America’s ailing housing market. And what is pinching the supply of England’s famed cricket bats. Guests and host: Oliver Carroll, Ukraine correspondent Vinjeru Mkandawire, news editor Andrew Rummer, Britain contributor Jason Palmer, co-host of “The Intelligence” Topics covered: Ukraine war America’s housing market, Home Depot cricket bats, supply chains Get a world of insights by subscribing to Economist Podcasts+ .
