Show notes

Einar Tangen is a Senior Fellow at Teihe Institute and a Senior Fellow at CIGI. Over the past decade, the US has increasingly been pushing adversaries such as Russia and Iran into China's arms. While Trump promised to reverse this mistake, he is now doubling down by also pushing friendly states such as India into the Eurasian group. Each threat against BRICS countries increases the incentive to reduce dependence on the US economy.

Mark Episkopos: Last Chance - Terms For Ukraine Peace Agreement Aug 04, 2025

Show notes

Mark Episkopos is an Eurasia Research Fellow at the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, and Adjunct Professor of History at Marymount University. Episkopos argues the window of opportunity for a peace agreement is closing fast, yet a peace is still possible. The gap is wide, but Ukraine is desperate as it is on the brink of collapse. The challenge is to link a Ukrainian peace agreement to a wider pan-European security agreement that ends NATO expansionism. Europe is a destructive spoiler seeking to prolong the war, although Europeans can be sidelined.Read article by Mark Episkopos: https://responsiblestatecraft.org/western-weapons-ukraine/
