6/6/24 Branko Marcetic on the Unnecessary, Futile and Dangerous Prolongation of the War in Ukraine

Scott interviews Branko Marcetic about what’s happening with the war in Ukraine. They discuss the recent Russian proposals to move the conflict from the battlefield to the negotiation table and the West’s ongoing refusal. They also take a step back and review all the missed opportunities to bring the war to an end that would have left Ukraine better off with more leverage than surely will have in any future peace process. Discussed on the show: “Putin may be at the door. Why is Biden ignoring the bell?” (Responsible Statecraft) Debate - Should the U.S. Fund Ukraine War Again? Branko Marcetic is a writer for Jacobin Magazine, a fellow at In These Times, and host of the 1/200 podcast. He is the author of Yesterday’s Man: The Case Against Joe Biden.
