Silicon Bites Ep428 | 2026-10-20 | Putin wants three men at a table to decide Ukraine’s fate – but without Ukraine. Authoritarians of the world are getting a club, Putin and Xi, with aspiring autocrat Trump. Compared to Russia and China’s strongmen, he is an amateur still, a pretender to the club. But the membership fee may allow him admittance – no more nor less than the carve up of the world, and betrayal of sovereign democracies. The Dark Yalta is taking shape. It will happen. Ukraine will not surrender, and I can tell you, Europe is in deep, deep trouble.
