And yet rumours of paranoia, deserting elites, and strange defections abound. To decipher what exactly is going on in Moscow, Patrick and Tom are joined by Russia-watcher extraordinaire, Mark Galeotti. Hosts: General Sir Patrick Sanders and Tom Newton DunnGuest: Mark GaleottiProducer: Shabnam GrewalExecutive producer: Fiona LeachImage: GettyListen here to Mark's podcast, In Moscow's Shadows Hosted on Acast.
