There’s much much (justifiable and needed) coverage about the risks and courage of Ukrainians standing up to President Putin. That said, the Sunday morning political shows have a mission beyond informing the public about the latest events—their mission seeks to elevate dialogue about US policy. Today on Polilogue we ask: how did the shows do at that function on the topic of Ukraine. We also go deeper on the US decision to scrap the deal to provide Ukraine fighter aircraft.
