St. James’s Foreign Policy Group Partners with The Telegraph to Enhance AI-Powered Translation of Ukraine: The Latest

St. James’s Foreign Policy Group is proud to have played a key role in supporting The Telegraph as it pioneers AI-powered simultaneous translation for its flagship podcast, Ukraine: The Latest. This initiative, announced by The Telegraph on the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, 24th February 2025, will provide Ukrainian- and Russian-speaking audiences with real-time translations of the podcast, expanding access to vital insights on the war and its global implications.

Recognising the critical need for accuracy and nuance in foreign policy discourse, St. James’s Foreign Policy Group contributed its expertise by advising on the integration of AI-driven translation software while ensuring linguistic and contextual precision. Working alongside The Telegraph, the Group facilitated the involvement of native-speaking analysts and linguists to refine translations, preserving the depth and integrity of the original discussions.

“The war in Ukraine is a defining geopolitical event of our time, and access to reliable information is essential,” said Aliona Hlivco, Founder & CEO at St. James’s Foreign Policy Group. “We are pleased to assist The Telegraph in leveraging AI technology to bridge language barriers and provide Ukrainian- and Russian-speaking audiences with direct access to expert analysis.”

This partnership highlights the growing role of AI in the media sector, demonstrating how technology, when combined with human expertise, can enhance global understanding of complex international affairs. The AI-driven translation of Ukraine: The Latest represents a major step in ensuring that critical reporting reaches those most affected by the war, in their native languages.
