For the first time in almost 80 years, we will celebrate Christmas with a major war going on in Europe. This means, for example, that Christmas is brought earlier in Ukraine. Hear about how the people of Ukraine have been encouraged to hold on to tradition, albeit adapted and small-scale.
We are facing a few difficult months and perhaps that is why Christmas is more important than in a very long time in Europe. An opportunity to take a break from all the hard work in everyday life and enjoy a few days. Hear from our correspondents in Berlin and London about what Christmas is like there. What are the subjects you might do best in not bring up at the Christmas table if you want to protect family peace, for example. In addition, Christmas gift distribution to Europe.
