Ukraine has been rocked by a major corruption scandal surrounding the country’s energy sector, amidst ongoing Russian attacks on electricity infrastructure. An alleged $100m scheme, involving money laundering and kick backs, has led to the resignation of senior ministers and engulfed prominent allies of Volodymyr Zelensky.

This week, Lucy Hockings and Vitaly Shevchenko are joined by Ukraine correspondent James Waterhouse, and BBC Verify’s Olga Robinson. They discuss the fallout from the fifteen-month investigation, and answer all of your questions.
Could we see a western-backed referendum in the occupied territories? Will Ukraine reduce the age of conscription? And how much do Russia and the US cooperate beyond headline diplomacy?
