In this installment of the Issues of Contemporary Politics Play List, I discuss the latest moves by the major actors in the unfolding drama of war and peace in Ukraine. Putin offerd his terms of peace in late May 2024 and Zelensky wants to convene a Peace conference in Geneva but without Russia. Macron is ready to send troops and Biden allows to shoot missiles hitting targets in Russia. What response would come from Russia? Are we on the bink of nuclear war? Why are the Western leaders pushing for escalation? Do they mean to fight? And if they do, will it not lead to the split in NATO? How ready are the publics and electorates in Europe to fight a war against Russia? Is Biden pushing Europe to a suicide or plain refusal to follow the US as Hungary has done? These are the ssues discussed here.
