Aga and Adam start this episode by discussing the upcoming NATO summit, fears linked to a potential nuclear sabotage at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, and tensions between Ukraine and Georgia over the state of health of Mikheil Saakashvili.

Aga then sits down with Marek Menkiszak, the Head of the Russian Department at the Centre for Eastern Studies in Poland and a lecturer at the Centre for East European Studies at the University of Warsaw. Together, they discuss the origins of Prigozhin's march on Moscow on 23-24 June, its conduct, the surprising resolution of the crisis involving Belarus' Alyaksandr Lukashenka, and potential aftermath for all parties involved.
