The Internationalization of the Far Right
from Kellogg's Global Politics · host Anita Kellogg
In this episode, we begin with the latest developments in the Russia-Ukraine crisis, where war appears imminent. We’ll consider how the West will respond and what the Ukrainian resistance might look like. Then onto the Canadian Convoy protest and what it signals for the larger populist movement on the right both in the US and elsewhere. Finally, we’ll wrap up by visiting the national elections in France and Hungary where many of the same themes seen in North America are front and center. Also, check out Anita’s appearance on the Clubhouse’s ‘The Big Picture’ hosted by Pyotr Kurzin where she fields questions about Russia-China relations and the impact of the Ukraine crisis.Topics Discussed in this EpisodeRussia-Ukraine: Likelihood of war and the West’s response - 9:40Canadian Trucker Protest and the Global Right - 29:30French and Hungarian National Elections - 43:00Articles Mentioned in EpisodeRussia-Ukraine: Likelihood of war and the West’s response Biden Says Putin Has Chosen ‘Catastrophic’ War Over Diplomacy (NYT)Can Ukrainian Resistance Foil a Russian Victory?
