Last week, US President Donald Trump put forward a 28 point peace plan as a proposed resolution to the war between Ukraine and Russia — with an initial expectation of response by the 27th of November.
The initial plan included an agreement by NATO to hold dialogue with Russia, to refuse current and future Ukrainian access to NATO, and not station troops in Ukraine, and Europe commit $100 billion to the investment into Ukrainian construction; also providing “financial compensation” for the role of the United States in mediation.
Following backlash from European leaders as well as negotiations between Trump and Zelenskyy, the plan has been refined, with further discussions to take place over the coming week.

Molly is joined in the studio by Toody Cole, the aptly dubbed 'Godmother of Rock n Roll'. Toody has returned to Aotearoa to play music from the catalogue of the infamous garage-rock pioneers Dead Moon and Pierced Arrows. Toody played bass and sung in both bands alongside her husband Fred Cole, who passed away in 2017. This time around, Toody's band is comprised of Pierced Arrows bandmate Kelly Haliburton, as well as Kelly's bandmate, Christopher March, from Jenny Don't & The Spurs. Toody plays Tāmaki tonight before heading across the country and then making a final stop back at Galatos for The Others Way 2025. Whakarongo mai nei!
Molly speaks with Craig Robertson, a professor in Media Studies at Northeastern University over in the U.S., former writer for Aotearoa’s longest running music mag Rip It Up, who's back in Aotearoa to tour his newly published book, Chris Knox: Not Given Lightly. Published via Auckland University Press, the biographry is a comprehensive account of Knox's life and career from Invercargill to current day. It's an honest account of an artist who's innumerable creative outputs since the '70s have cemented his place as behemoth in the musical landscape and cultural history of this country.
You'll be able to catch Craig in conversation with Russell Brown at Real Groovy from 6pm, alongside Don McGlashan and SJD, Groopchat and Gemma Gracewood.
