Ukrainian Podcast #1 and Boldozer Consulting Launch New Weekly Geopolitics and Risk Series

Ukrainian Podcast #1, in partnership with Boldozer Consulting, is launching a new Weekly Geopolitics and Risk Series, bringing sharp and timely analysis of today’s volatile world.

The series will air as 15–20 minute conversations, covering up to two key topics per episode, and is designed for global trade policy-watchers, business leaders, diplomats, and media stakeholders.

Hosted by Ukrainian Podcast #1, each episode will feature insights from Viktoriya Zakrevskaya, founder of Boldozer Consulting. Zakrevskaya is a Zurich-based strategic communications and geopolitical risk consultant with expertise in compliance, AI governance, and high-risk sectors such as commodity trading, energy, and gaming.

The program will premiere next week as a pilot extension of the Policy Room initiative by the United Ukraine Think Tank. Listeners can expect expert discussions on the forces reshaping today’s global order — from shifting trade routes and sanctions regimes to energy corridors, maritime security, and the competition for influence in emerging markets.

“This series is about unpacking the new realities of trade, security, and global alignment. We want to give listeners a clear view of how these shifts affect business, institutions, and long-term strategies,” said Zakrevskaya. “The focus is global, but the rules have changed since the war in Ukraine. Business has become geopolitics — supply chains, sanctions, and market access are no longer just economic issues, they are strategic ones. And that is precisely why we draw perspective from Kyiv, the city at the heart of Europe’s fight for security and independence. It gives us a vantage point that is both immediate and globally relevant.”

The Weekly Geopolitics and Risk Series will be available on Ukrainian Podcast #1 starting next week.
