    MaxTucker Is by far the Times Radio best Reporter… When I listen to Ukrainian the latest I feel like sometimes it’s more ego and opinion driven reporting where as Max is on the ground and speaking first hand with clear and concise information… Your a brave man Max.. Your reporting brings home the true horror and intensity of this brutal invasion by the Coward Putin
