For more than a year, John Batchelor has, on radio Tuesday evenings, discussed developments in Ukraine with Prof. Stephen F. Cohen. These discussions offer a sharp contrast to U.S. media coverage. There is no rush to demonize Russian President Vladimir Putin on the John Batchelor program, Tuesdays, with Prof. Cohen, who, the past year, has called attention to the absence in the U.S. media of debate on Ukraine.

Another Russian expert, Paul Gregory, also appears on the Batchelor show with some regularity, although for a shorter amount of time than is accorded Prof. Cohen. Gregory sticks to the media's anti-Putin party line.

LPR would like to hear a Cohen-Gregory debate on Ukraine and Putin, moderated by John Batchelor.
