What are the lessons that history can teach us about the Russian war in Ukraine? Three of Britain’s most distinguished and bestselling historians – Peter Frankopan, Max Hastings and Margaret MacMillan – share their insights into the conflict and its repercussions for the future.

In conversation with BBC news presenter Jonny Dymond, they examine the long road to war as well as the potential outcomes of the conflict. They explore how President Putin has been invoking the past to rally support among the Russian people for his actions, and the strengths and shortcomings of Western nations in support of Ukraine. And as the Russian leader threatens to use nuclear weapons to achieve his aims, they ask what lessons can be learned from brinkmanship during the Cold War.
