World Briefing Plus (Video): Viruses, Wars & Warnings
Reporting live from Moldova - conflict, contagion, and a ceasefire that may not hold
This week's World Briefing Plus is coming to you live from Moldova, where I've relocated after evacuating Odessa, due to the deteriorating security situation in the southern Ukrainian port city. It's been a week that demanded attention on multiple fronts - a quietly spreading virus that's drawing uncomfortable comparisons to early 2020, a war in Iran that's already disrupting travel in ways most people haven't felt yet, and a three-day ceasefire in Ukraine that I'll be honest with you about. I also share details about two upcoming speaking engagements in Alberta that I'd love for you to be part of if you are in the province. First up this week on May 14 - the annual Kyiv Konnection Banquet in Edmonton. Hosted by the Ukrainian Foundation for College Education (UFCE), the banquet supports the work of MacEwan University’s Ukrainian Resource and Development Centre (URDC), which builds academic partnerships and community connections between Canada and Ukraine.
