Europe’s Missed Chances & Ukraine’s War: Conversation With Former Maltese FM Evarist Bartolo

In this thought-provoking interview, we speak with Evarist Bartolo, Former Foreign Minister of Malta, about Europe’s dramatic transformation — from a continent focused on social welfare and diplomacy to one increasingly defined by militarisation and conflict.We discuss how Brexit strained Malta–UK relations, the missed opportunities for peace in Ukraine, and Europe’s failure to pursue genuine diplomacy after the Cold War. Bartolo reflects on the 1989 Malta Summit between Gorbachev and Bush, and how the promises made then were later broken — paving the way for NATO expansion and escalating tensions with Russia.We also explore:How Libya’s disarmament was betrayed by the WestWhy Ukraine could have thrived as a neutral stateThe economic self-sabotage of GermanyThe US role in destroying the Nord Stream pipelineAnd what future awaits European security in a multipolar worldAs wars rage in Ukraine and Gaza, we ask: Has the West’s strategic vision collapsed? And is Europe now paying the price for blindly following Washington’s lead?📌 Don’t miss this frank and sobering conversation with someone who has seen European diplomacy from the inside.Subscribe for more in-depth discussions on geopolitics, Islam, and emerging tech.🔔 Turn on notifications so you don’t miss upcoming interviews.Visit us at: 🌐 www.kianistan.comSupport our sponsors: 💼 www.worldwidelistings.co.uk Follow Evarist Bartolo: evaristbartolo.mt/#Israel #USA #Gaza #Geopolitics #Empire #DavidGibbs #USForeignPolicy #MiddleEast
