As Europe heads into the cold winter months, there still no indication of the war between Russia and Ukraine coming to an end.
The Ukrainian army has made major advances and taken back much of their country. Meanwhile, Russian casualties are piling up and the Putin’s forces are now responding with a barrage of missile attacks, a strategy that inadvertently led to the deaths of two people in Poland.
So what does this mean for the European economies, particularly Ukraine and Russia? With its back to the wall, could Russia pull the trigger on a nuclear weapon? And is there a risk of the rest of the world stops caring about the struggle of the Ukrainian people?
Today, Damien is by joined Newshub Europe correspondent Lisette Reymer, who has visited Ukraine five times this year, for an update on the ongoing war.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
