Evan GershkovichGUEST
Uh, I'd reported a story about how Putin was getting information from the front and making decisions about the war.
Evan GershkovichGUEST
I'd gone to Pskov, which hosts the 76th division of the, uh, Russian airborne forces that had occupied Bucha, uh, in, uh, Ukraine and committed a series of war crimes.
Evan GershkovichGUEST
And so I don't...
Evan GershkovichGUEST
You know, I suspect they weren't really happy with what I was reporting on.
Evan GershkovichGUEST
Perhaps they didn't enjoy that.
Evan GershkovichGUEST
I went to Pskov, where the 76th, uh, division of the Russian Airborne Forces is based.
Evan GershkovichGUEST
They had occupied Bucha in Ukraine, committed a series of war crimes.
Evan GershkovichGUEST
Talked to s- you know, uh, servicemen, their relatives in Pskov.
Evan GershkovichGUEST
I can't imagine they liked that story either.
Evan GershkovichGUEST
At the same time, Putin around then addressed the FSB, which was formerly the KGB in the Soviet era, the domestic intelligence agency, had told them in, in the next year, in the new year, in '23, the year I end up getting arrested three months later, they need to do a better job of catching traitors, foreign spies, and saboteurs.
Alexander MercourisGUEST
There was one amongst them, for example, who, um, had, uh, been to England and had learned English, for example.
Alexander MercourisGUEST
And this was in a city, a town called Pskov, which is right on the border with Estonia.
Alexander MercourisGUEST
There's a major military unit there.
Alexander MercourisGUEST
So I was able to talk to them.

In the history of the ancient Greek republics, and especially in that of the medieval commonwealths, we find numerous examples of this struggle.

Florence and Pskov are especially interesting in this connection.
Agnes Robert BaerNARRATOR
In this sense, therefore, Jacobinist and anarchist have existed at all times among reformers and revolutionists.
Agnes Robert BaerNARRATOR
In past ages there were even great popular movements of this latter, anarchist character.
Evan GershkovichGUEST
Uh, I wrote a story near the end of '22, uh, about how Putin was getting information from the front and making decisions about the war.
Evan GershkovichGUEST
I wrote another story from Pskov, where the 76th division of the Russian airborne forces is based, and they had occupied Bucha in Ukraine, committed a series of war crimes.
Evan GershkovichGUEST
So I was clearly doing stories they weren't too happy with.
Evan GershkovichGUEST
Uh, and the story, uh, that led to my arrest, uh, or was the trap for my arrest, was Ukraine was telegraphing that it was going to be conducting this counteroffensive in the summer of '23, uh, heading south, cutting Russian lines, trying to isolate Crimea, and that's, that way force Putin back to the negotiating table.

Conrad FranzHOST
I know the Anthony Westgate Book Club did it recently just, uh- Bit of a coincidence, but, you know, Loris, the characters there are from [clears throat] you know, they're from around here.
Conrad FranzHOST
They're from northern Russia, and he eventually ends up in, in Pskov.
Conrad FranzHOST
But I'm gonna go with this, unless Franz von Gart can, can come in and, and weigh in here, because I think he'd be able to g- he says this is good.
Conrad FranzHOST
This seems to be about exact...

This king brought the lands belonging to his realm into closer connection with Kiev by giving them as governors his own sons instead of other princes.
