On episode 60 of the show we are joined by Nikolai Azarov, a Ukrainian politician and former Prime Minister of Ukraine (2010-2014). He was also the First Vice Prime Minister and Finance Minister (2002-2005 and again 2006-2007). Azarov had served ‘ex officio’ as an acting prime minister in the First Yanukovych Government when Viktor Yanukovych ran for president at first and then upon the resignation of his government. Following the victory of Viktor Yanukovych in the 2010 presidential election, Azarov succeeded Yanukovych as leader of the “Party of Regions” and was appointed as Prime Minister in March 2010. After the coup d'état in Ukraine, Azarov fled to Russia and according to Azarov himself, was offered "political refugee status on the personal instructions of Vladimir Putin".
