Description

Alastair Crooke is a former British diplomat and the Founder of "Conflicts Forum" based in Beirut. He was formerly an advisor on Middle East issues to Javier Solana, the EU Foreign Policy Chief. Crooke argues that Europe has bet everything on the proxy war against Russia. Europe has sacrificed its legitimacy, economy, security and relations with Russia, China and the US. Europe has already entered a pre-revolutionary moment.

The attempt to get the people in Europe used to the thought of an upcoming war with Russia is demonic indeed. Thank you for having such a wise guest.

Please do not underestimate the stupidity of the political class in Europe. They are very capable of sending your sons and daughters to war to keep themselves in power.
