Episode Rebuilding Ukraine under the shadow of a presidential row
Ukraine’s allies are gathering in Gdańsk to talk about rebuilding the country — even as Russia continues to destroy homes, power stations and critical infrastructure.
Zoya Sheftalovich reports from the Ukraine Recovery Conference, where governments, banks and businesses are trying to turn political promises into real investment. She and Sarah Wheaton look at the money on the table, Poland’s hopes of playing a major role in the reconstruction effort and the diplomatic row between Polish President Karol Nawrocki and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who stayed away from the conference as tensions escalated.
Plus: Why some European fossil fuel companies could still appear in investment funds marketed as supporting the green transition — and why the European Council wants influencers at EU summits, but only if their content does not go against “EU values.”
