In convo with Irene Kenyon & Sergej Sumlenny

Are we doing enough in the West to aid Ukraine and counter Russian aggression?

That was what Scott and I set out to answer in our convo with Irene Kenyon and Sergej Sumlenny. What is being done and can be done on through sanctions, and financial and economic measures to reduce Russia’s ability to continue the war, and the status of political unity, especially in Germany, France and Italy. We also discuss the moral underpinnings of our commitment.

Russia’s foreign outlook is flavored by officially approved far-right and anti-Western ingredients. And it’s not only Vladimir Putin savoring the taste.
