Is Europe ready to hit the Russian war machine where it hurts? In the first episode of Series 2 of The DipTel, Audley Director Harry Wynne-Williams speaks to Sir Bill Browder: Founder and CEO of Hermitage Capital Management, author, and activist, whose campaigning has brought sanctions against Russia and its allies under the Magnitsky Acts.
