Today On Deadline is looking at Russia under Vladimir Putin. 

From nukes in space and interviews with Tucker Carlson to a dead presidential candidate, and an incarcerated and blindfolded ballerina, the last few weeks have been busy ones for Russia in the headlines. We'll unpack it all for you. 

'On Deadline' is hosted and produced by Lauren Barry, Joe Hiti, Christy Strawser and Myron Kaplan. Sound design by Joe Hiti.
