Thank God for men like Professor Sachs. He simply doesn't have any time for the bull shit. He's here to get the correct information, analyze it, and figure out where to go from there. And we could use HUNDREDS of him.
Jeffery Sachs shock therapy literally helped create the oligarch monsters in Russia that the American Right copied Jeffrey Sachs is a fool and a conman just like the rest of the elite
Thank him for what? The mess baby boomers have left for the younger generations will have to clean up. Yeah thanks Professor Sachs......for nothing. If I ever have a need to destroy a paradise I'll call you, the liberals, conservatives and socialist progressives in you are group for help. Just leave us all alone please. We'll find our own way.
because God bless America, the U.S. is one country under God, and God is democratic. The Jews' vote decided whether God should have a son. The Jews voted for God to have a child with Joseph's virgin wife, Mary, before Joseph. God must get Jews to vote before screwing around another man's wife.

The estimated combined death toll from Soviet/Russian and Chinese repression is estimated at over 150 million. If you can't tell the difference I feel sad for you.
He is a terrorist, look what he did to Russia, he advised the fascist neoliberal oligarchy that screwed over the country, convinced Yeltsin to sell off nationalized industry for pennies, and let businesses decide their own prices, which caused hyperinflation.

Sadly, they left seriousness in the rearview mirror long ago, like at least since Trump was elected. Between bringing on hack after hack pushing russiagate, to completely ignoring the WCC chemical weapons cover-up scandal in Syria, taking the the hawkish a-historical line regarding Russia/Ukraine, and even had on that fraud Adrian Zenz on to push his anti-China propaganda regarding the Uyghurs! Which if it was just that and had on legit radical leftists and anti-imperialists to even things out - that'd be one thing, but they hardly ever have on any anti-imperialists or other heterodox thinkers anymore, (like Sachs for example). Then what's more infuriating is the fact that when Dem Now has on these hacks - they barely, if ever, give them any tough questions, and pretty much allow them to spew whatever particular bullshit they came on to do, without any sort of push-back what so ever! I genuinely have no clue what the fuck happened to Amy and the crew over there, but regardless - Dem Now has basically transformed into a slightly more left-leaning and independent online version of MSNBC by this point, and have been for more tthan half a decade or so! It genuinely pisses me off every time i happen to check out a video of theirs, because I'm reminded of what a brave and principled news outlet Dem Now once was not all that long ago.

Sachs is a true intellectual. Been criticized for his big push theory. But if he was wrong, it was not on purpose. He has a genuine heart to solve the world's problems. Love and respect!!!
DN - Thank you so much for having Jeffery Sachs on. He is always a light shining through the Propaganda Shit Storm. Shut down the warmongers and sue for PEACE!
We will not sue for peace with a nation that has been trying to destroy us for 500 years, and has now invaded us yet again. If you think you want peace more than Ukrainians you are arrogant and delusional, we simply want a permanent peace not some half measure that will see ruSSia invade us again in a few years.
No worries, just send your kids to Taiwan to defend democracy from the Chinese attack. God will split Taiwan straight and drown all Chinese invaders. God is democratic and will bless the US against godless China. There are no problems that a good war can't solve. War solves all problems. So, you must hate China and want to kill the Chinese because our government never lies when it talks about China. The US government only tells the truth about China. After all, China certainly has weapons of mass destruction, which is reason enough for the US to go to war with China. Therefore, when it comes to war with China, all Americans must be willing to fight the Chinese, rush to China or Taiwan, and die there happily for democracy.
Sadly you cannot shut down the Military Industrial Complex or the NRA --- they finance the campaigns of American politicians and through them they RULE America
Yes, sue for capitulation of democratic Ukraine to the atrocity-committing aggressor-dictatorship that invaded it. Sue for the betrayal of the self-governing democracy in Taiwan to the dictatorship in China.

Some economists have projected that both the U.S. and parts of Europe could slip into a recession for a portion of 2023. A global recession, defined as a contraction in annual global per capita income, is more rare because China and emerging markets often grow faster than more developed economies. Essentially the world economy is considered to be in recession if economic growth falls behind population growth.

@@katharineamin6066 Thank you. Notice, btw, that the professor dare not specifically cite a single "rule" or international law he considers objectionable, since that would immediately expose him as the stooge of tyrants, thugs, and criminals that he is. Instead, he hides his antipathy to democracies and admiration for dictatorships behind lofty-sounding phrases such as "multipolar", "multilateral", ending "American hegemony" (which is straight out of Russian and Chinese state media), "the U.S. and a few friends" (actually over a hundred democracies) etc. His only real objection to international law is that it is created primarily by democracies. Remarkable as well is that the interviewer doesn't raise a single one of these very obvious objections, even if only to make a semblance of being a journalist, as opposed to the dogmatic anti-American propagandist that she is.
I LOVE it when Dr. Sachs speaks, too! His global gaze is riveting-whether it’s on domestic foibles passing as “politics,” on banking systems or on military ops & Economics!! He’s a jewel 💎 of sanguinity & I appreciate his input-whether I fully agree with him or not. The man’s got INSIGHT.

We do need to listen but Sachs is equally deluded if he thinks that China wants unicorns and rainbows. CHINA is focused on global dominance. As we move awsy from USA hegemony we must be rqually vigilant that China does not replace the USA with an even more opressive global regime.
Clear, cogent, straightforward, logical, virtually impossible to misunderstand or refute. As he so often does , in this interview Prof. Sachs once again hits it out of the park.
Sacks is a bit of a nut. He helped push the post-communist Russian state into the semi failed mafia state it is today, and he got on board w/the lab leak "theory" a little while back. His perspective is shaky, to say the least.

@@sheilamacdougal4874 The problem with your reasoning starts by believing that the US is the only nation capable of commanding international relation systems and mediating important conflicts by assuming every other superpower is a dictatorship.

We - the rest of the world - want some space from US arrogance and supremacy. The time has come and we want to shine our own light.
@@sheilamacdougal4874sigh…. The same old BS lies about Human rights and freedom inside China. Have you ever lived there? The USA locks up more of its own citizens each year and is pretty good at executions also. Give me a break!
@@sheilamacdougal4874 USA and west is worse than China and Russia. USA funded and supplied weapons to Pakistani dictator to genocide Bengalis. Bengalis aka Rohingyas fled to Myanmar and India along with their terrorist member who carried out several attacks later. USA/west installed nukes for terrorist Pakistani regime and trained Al Queda to wage a war with India. USA funded/supported Saddan Hussian to wage a war with Iran. Later Iraq was invaded by the west accusing Iraq of mass destructive weapons which is now proved to be wrong. Western companies exploit Iraq for its Oil. West created proxy wars in Syria and African countries to exploit their resources. The west historically genocided millions and millions of indigenous population in North America, Australia and New Zealand.,etc and enslaved Africans. I don't support any side but the west is worse than China and Russia.
Excellent analysis by Prof. Jeffery Sachs, many people are not aware of. Thank you for this. I think that USA should understand that others also have rights. And which World Medal is USA aspiring for? In this age that poverty is everywhere nobody is thinking about who has the world power It is not important! We just want to live in peace and enjoy life. If United States can help make peace and not cause wars, may be it can have the World Power Medal. But for now people think United States, Britain, France and some other European countries are pains in the neck of the world.
If USA is pain in neck then china is cancer pain in the brain when they claim almost the entire south China sea extending thousands of mile from shire when every country in the entire world only get about 200 miles, china disregard international law ruling, they have so called coast guard ships over 3,000 miles away from china and closer to Philippines blocking bullying Philippines fisherman who are trying to fish within their 200 mile economic zone. It's like me going to my neighbours house all the way to their front door and preventing them from getting their mail down their driveway. A coast guard ship working closer to other countries is no coast guard, coast guard with a 76mm front mounted cannon ? Does china fend off illegal immigrants of drugs coming in ? It is a military ship, it is massive compared to other countries coast guard, about the size of a destroyer.
Since the OPIUM wars America has been a global bully. Nobody has any ''rights '' in a world where America dictates who may speak and when. USA created a scenario by which the rest of the world can only enjoy freedom by USA;s destruction and overthrow of the US world order. This is the collision course America has steered for itself.
I am an African. To Prof. Jeffrey Sachs - "you are human and obviously have shortcomings, your wisdom is not only academic, it is Godly inspired. Stay blessed."
He has his shortcomings all right, and one of them is that he is a pathological liar, if this talk is any indication. Go look up some of the numbers he gave and statements he made. They were absolute fantasy. China does not have the same economy as the US, not in terms of trade, and not even close, the US is about 50% more than China's in GDP. And the percentage of world trade, the dollar is four times every other currency combined. Please, look up the numbers, don't take my word for them, and REALLY don't take his. These are just two examples, I could make the same arguments for almost everything he said. It frightens me that he has the ear of UN policy makers, and it explains a LOT. The UN is an organization that serves basically nobody anymore, from what I can see. One year and 80 days into the war, and they have JUST figured out that it is going on and perhaps they should join in to help.
"A US led world"? Who are you kidding? US led, more like US dominated world that is why the US has 800 military bases in other countries AND the BIGGEST army in the history of the world. A country does not need military bases everywhere to lead the world, unless it decides that there is only ONE WAY, its way. Like US domination over the Philippines, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, Colombia, Cuba, Guatemala, Panama, Dominican Republic, Iraq, Iran, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Libya, Laos, Syria, Indonesia, Grenada, Haiti, Mexico, Canada... Hell there are so many I do not have time to list them all. According to Kelly and Laycock's book, the United States has invaded or fought in 84 of the 193 countries recognized by the United Nations and has been militarily involved with 191 of 193, a staggering 98 percent. You might not know it, but the rest of the world does, it has felt it, and is fed up, just like me, an American citizen, fed up with this country which is not really a country but a MAFIA. What really irks me the most is that with all the taxes I have paid there are 42 MILLION Americans, 12 MILLION of them children, ONE OUT OF SIX, that are starving and our MAFIA in control DOES ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT IT!!!! It hurts me to admit it, but the world would be a better place WITHOUT the USA in it.
I wholeheartedly agree. I just hope more people would know about this as there are still lots of them who look at the US with rose tinted glasses. They can't wrap it around their head that the US gov is the devil incarnate
Will you be in trouble for writing this? Probably not. Maybe that's the difference between the American mafia and the Russian mafia. The American mafia is so powerful they really don't need to care about what ordinary Americans say in public about them.

@@rayli3720 Nothing I said is in the least controversial; the human rights record is abundant (which is why you don't challenge a single point). Rather, you project your own believing what you want to believe onto me. That epistemic derangement is very typical of people on this channel, who have a psychological need to blame the democracies for every aggression and crime by the dictatorships. Some are just outright fascists (whether they call themselves "progressive" or not). I've exposed a few here. Others have a psychological need to feel sanctimonious in their own societies; it would take a long time to analyse the psychology here. What is beyond question, as you confirm again, is that they have no arguments. That's why this professor can't name a single "rule" or international law that he finds objectionable; doing so would immediately expose him as a stooge of the dictatorships.
@@sheilamacdougal4874 From what I read it seems like you've already closed the door to any discussion as you said nothing you said is controversial. You should know for a fact that the U.S. waged multiple hot wars against Islamic extremist with the cost of hundreds of thousands of civilian casualties, not to mention those prisoners in Guantanamo. On the other hand, the Chinese government put Islamic extremist to educational camps and try to de-radicalize these people attempting to re-accept them into the society instead of bombing the crap out of them. Even then, the western rhetoric still somehow treat this as a so-called "genocide" that I really can't get where they're coming from. Speaking of Hong Kong, where militant protestors sabotage public transportation, government agency and police buildings and still being called "democracy fighters" by the western "mainstream media". While the capitol hill insurrection happened almost the same time, essentially the same group of protestors were called "mob" and depicted as illiterate red-neck instead. Can't you tell the hypocrisy in these western propaganda and "rules" already? Or maybe you are part of the propaganda too.

It appears you are completely lovesick over one of the world's schoolyard bullies, trying to take down your master's competition. If you want the moral high ground, you should quit making embarrassingly lopsided posts. If someone is strong enough he will want to throw his weight around. China in Xinjiang and Taiwan, Russia in Ukraine, France in Africa.... and America just about everywhere. It's just a simple fact of life. If I were you I would ask instead what I can squeeze from all these powers trying to outdo each other, just like a sensible customer does to all those businesses jockeying for his money. If you still insist on your fangirling, I will know you chose the blue pill.
Here's more truth: as it is engaging in performative diplomacy, China is also becoming close to totalitarian internally. I would not romanticize that country or pretend that trading the US empire for a Chinese empire will save us. Totally ridiculous. We are and have been dangerous in many ways-- and China is ALSO a threat to human rights internally as well as in other parts of the world.

Remember china doesn't do charity. This whole thing is smoke and mirrors. China marketed itself as a good investment and we bought it.

We've tried to help Africa, they don't need infrastructure, they need schools but when we provide them, the idiots stole the children to create gorilla armies to take land and resources.

America notoriously spend more on preparing for war than relying to prevent it. Military preparedness becomes the highest priority.

And US wanting to face off against China?? Why not collaborate with mutual respect?
If others steal, you can also steal? If others annex territories, you can also annex the South China Sea and Taiwan. Tibetan and Uighur culture is surpressed because not Chinese. Internet access to the BBC is blocked. Everything that is not supportive of Chinese dictatorship is considered outlawed.
He obviously doesn’t care about what Ukraine wants or needs to be protected from Russia. I wonder if he would like to live next to a nuclear-filled nation run by a dictator with zero democracy.

In 250 years of existence as a nation, the US has fought (some successful, some not, some in complete failures) against 29 sovereign countries. (In Fact, since 1785, US have been involved, for 219 years, in some kind of war. And this wars, against all varieties of sovereign nations. From going against the Sultan of Morocco, to invading the tiny island of Grenada. Well, this means that in its entire history, it has only had 17 years of peace, and even fewer, cuz here the almost 5 years (1861-1865), of its Civil War of Secession are not counted (Union/Confederates), since this war was not with another country, but against US. And the wars against the Native Nations of America are not counted too, for the same reason). Anyway: US fought against 29 countries. It has "Grown" 711 times the size of its territory from the original 13 colonies. It has provoked with total impunity, Genocides, inside and outside its own borders, and assassinations of Gov’t. Leaders, Coups d'État and Economic Blockades in 6 UN member nations. (Between 1947 and 1989, the US tried to change other nations gov’ts. 73 times. It includes 66 covert Ops. And 7 overt ones. In Civil Wars: The US has taken advantage of and intervened without justification in the following Civil Wars: In Cuba (1898 and 1960). In Haiti (1813 and then 1915-1934). In Colombia (1899-1902 and 1948). In Mexico (1847 and 1914 and again in 1916). In Russia (1918). In the "Republic Banana Wars" of Central America (1912-1934). In Venezuela (1945 and again in 1948). In China (1857, and 1900, and again in 1945-1946-1949). In Korea (1950-1953). In Viet Nam (1959-1975). In Panama (1964 and again 1989). In Central Africa (1969-1974 and 1982-1988). In Nicaragua (1937 and 1985). In Bosnia (1995). In the Philippines (1898 and 1900)... In Kosovo, Libya, Lebanon, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Yemen, Afghanistan, etc.). And more: US has almost 800 Military Bases scattered around the world; 93 of which are against China. On the other hand, China and Korea (The "Axis of Evil"), in 1,000 years of history have NEVER invaded anyone. These nations have fought their Civil Wars, defended themselves against foreign invasions, and secured their immediate borders, but they have never been meddling or aggressor countries. Do you know how many Military Bases China or Korea have outside their territory? None. Zero. Any. NADA! They do not have a single Base. These are verifiable facts. Neither China nor Korea will invade the world; US does... that's DONE, as US does in the Middle East. Iran also does not have a SINGLE MILITARY BASE outside its national territory, and it is surrounded by 16 US Bases, and it is US who call the Iranians Terrorists. Well, very good. You already know. Now, compare the Greatness of the US with the Greatness of China. The "Greatness" of the US is built on the foundations of Piracy, Slavery, Genocide, the Assassination of opponents, Opium Traffic, or Cocaine in its case, and is under the foundations of the weakness of other sovereign nations.
Thank you for telling it as it is -the truth related to U waste of US dollars. US picking a fight and making Russia and China uncomfortable by getting too close…
As someone living in Europe I often fail to get my point of view across on the Ukraine conflict mainly because it has so many factors and people don't see how it all ties together. Mr Sachs really gives us a broad perspective on the issue. Thank you for this report
Actually, Mr. Sachs gave us Russian propaganda. For him to talk about Putin's "red line" as if it had any legitimacy whatsoever is disgraceful. Putin's "red line" literally means "Ukraine will do what I want, or I will destroy Ukraine". There is no reason for any country to take that garbage into consideration. It shows a complete lack of respect for Ukraine's independence and sovereignty. That lack of respect is also clear in Putin's repeated remarks about Ukraine being "not a country" and having an "illegitimate" government. There is nothing wrong with Ukraine taking Putin's concerns into account when UKRAINE decides for itself what alliances it will or will not join. Sachs repeatedly left Ukraine out, implying that the US is making decisions for them, which there is no evidence for, and which is pure, unadulterated Russian propaganda. As a side, Putin's belief that Ukraine's government is not legitimate is rich coming from a man who literally rigged his own election and changed laws to pave the way for him to become dictator-for-life. I was actually in Ukraine during Zelensky's campaign. Support for him was organic, even as far east as Mariupol. There is zero evidence for claiming that Zelensky was installed by the US.
Such a breath of fresh air to hear western people speaking like normal intelligent people. As an Indian born in E Africa, raised in then central africa and a South African citizen with strong links to India and travelled extensively to including the west...normally west is, we know, we are the benchmark blah blah. Well done on this discussion.
Except that China has publicly stated many times that they want to be the pre-eminent power in the world... replacing the USA! Which do you think is better? A US-led world or a China-led world? Yeah! Neither is a great option... but I think that China will be a worse replacement1
go to breath fresh air in India .....or in Africa..... you don't like the West?? Ok, stay at your home. Tell me why India, South Africa are with Putler....why?? c'mon explain !! 🤣🤣🤣
Mr Sachs is both cogent and wise. Let the adult in the room speak and be heard. I hope and pray that perpetual war doesn’t prevail. Earth is fickjng fragile. Well only need one impact or flare to end us all. China doesn’t seek an end to the USA.

This guy's right ... How much trauma must the American ppl go through for American so called strategic objectives ? Our leaders fail us over and over again ...
If US Admin had been a caring nation and not spending 90% of its time since its removal of American Natives to form USA, there would be no need to urgently push for a multi polar world. Without collusion with past white colonial powers, US hegemony couldn't be implemented. BRICS countries must be extra careful in dealing with all ex-colonial powers particularly the G7 nations.
America should see this period in time as an opportunity to reinvent the political posture, to curtail military spending, to invest inself, increasing broad-based prosperity., while working on global collaboration. It's almost as if in a well-functioning world Chi and Biden would be meeting all the time!
I wholeheartedly agree...to accomplish this we need at least a third political party that shuns all corporate sponsorship. However this seems like daydreaming
The changes coming following Covid exposed the flaws with doing business with Regime led corrupt countries. China and co trying to profit from everyone's misery while the USA, Europe, Oz etc pulled together. Brics nations haven't presented factual economic data in over 3 years and their countries are socially unstable. The question by 2025 wont be 'are we going to war with China?' It will be 'are we going to feed the over populated hell scapes still because we're socially responsible or will we just throw open our borders and swallow up their healthy youth with potential?'. The Internet and ease of travel has screwed these countries long term. There's only so much the poor brics populations can endure before they just revolt... in a huge way. Its disturbing to think of young Ukrainian and Russian kids dying for old men with an antiquated view of civilisation. Fingers crossed in a few decades, teens now will have forged a new world order together and enjoy equality no matter where they were born.

You are so right.May USA wakeup from their dreams and know that most of the world want a multi-polar world. The USA and their allies who opt to persist in their dreams must wakeup soon so that nobody suffer because of them
Sure, you can have a multipolar world, but you don’t get to invade other nations Willy nilly. Bush’s illegal invasion of Iraq lost the respect the USA barely had left… now Russia takes advantage. The multipolar world might be something that really sucks for those living in the West for multiple reasons. It’s gonna happen, but we can’t let Putin decide he can invade anyone willy nilly and conduct illegal wars like Bush did. All nations must refrain from such illegal invasions. Bush, Putin, should be sent to Geneva together.
Not if what you mean by multi polar world is having to turn a blind on the atrocities committed by dictatorial regimes like the CCP, mad rulers like Putin and Kim Jong Un, those little murdering tyrants in Africa, Myanmar, etc Disgusting how people who oppose the west and their allies really can stomach the CCP, the murderous military junta in Myanmar, and the likes of Putin and Kim Jong Un just to have a counterbalance to the west. 😩
This was a very important Geopolitical Discussion !! And perspectives to consider!! Russia did speak out a long, long time ago !! About and against NATO expansion with some warnings and thoughts without much thought back then and consideration!! Truly things do need to be looked at both sides at the same time!! Not just one-sided !!!
And what about the sides off all the democratic countries that choose to join NATO (a defensive alliance), or do you agree with putin that and “Eastern European” countries don’t deserve sovereignty? Maybe ask yourself why all these countries wanted to join NATO in the first place, and do some research on ruSSian history and modern beliefs.

Wow. I’m embarrassed by how little of this I knew or understood before. This is tremendous. I would say I watch almost too much news but I’ve never… never heard this explained. I was going to say “… heard this explained so clearly”, but I realized, actually no. Never heard it explained. At least not in the past decade I’ve been an avid news watcher. I see what’s happening to the modern GOP due to echo chambers and sheltering folks from knowledge. I also understand how that was used to keep slaves from helping themselves or fighting back at a time in this country. So I get realllly uncomfortable (to say the least) seeing how much of the world I’m not seeing even in our “world news” because the perspective is skewed. And so I don’t empathize maybe? Wow. And so much LOOKS different now. Like when you rewatch the Sixth Sense once you know the twist. Truly 🤯. Thank you so much Prof and Democracy Now!
That's an honest confession, I applaud you for sharing. I just want to point out the 'eco chamber' and 'sheltering folk from knowledge' is not isolated to modern GOP. This is equally true for modern Democratic party. When it comes to foreign policy, the modern political establishment is a uniparty (with a few exceptions), hellbent on maintaining global hegemony and a unipolar world, and saturates the mainstream media with propaganda to gather political support for their agenda.
One mightn’t have heard this perspective before if one relies on DN! too exclusively. DN! has become a mouthpiece for the neoliberal agenda on a few issues, the Ukraine war being one. (Syria, Nicaragua, Russiagate being amoung others.) Having said that - I am SO GLAD DN! chose to break free and interview Mr. Sachs on this subject! I look forward to Aaron Mate making a glorious return to the show as well.
@@taolin8084 Agree. She needs to share the bashing to all world leaders, including her own country, India. But, she leaves that to Western media which bashes India anyway.
Thank you very much Mr. Sachs. I too believe that either every country or every continent must have a representative on the world stage not only five countries. Respect is why countries are turning away from the West. The West must treat all countries with the same respect she thinks she deserved and not to make the rules for the world. Every country must be represented, that would be fair and it would keep peace around the world.
I agree. The US acting as if the other countries wanting the same respect that is given. Unfortunately it is very hard for us humans to understand their is more to world economics and hopefully world peace someday soon. Tic TOC. Better late than never giving a thought as to the damage we may have inflicted with our arrogance. Does that make sense? Hmm

Glad to see DN put Sachs on again. I was getting worried about some of the positions DN was taking in the last few years. May it recapture its former reputation and never cater to funders.
In the 1990s, Robert Kagan, along with Bill Kristol, who is on Institute for Study of War(ISW) board, founded the Project for a New American Century, which in the view of some observers played an important role in convincing George W. Bush to invade Iraq. The Kagan-Kristol Project for a New American Century(PNAC) was funded by arms makers, thanks largely to the work of Lockheed Martin executive Bruce P. Jackson, who became a director of PNAC. Jackson had earlier organized the US Committee to Expand NATO, which successfully lobbied for what its name suggests it lobbied for. Some people think NATO expansion-in particular George W. Bush’s 2008 addition of Ukraine to the list of future members-helped cause the Ukraine war, but in any event NATO expansion has over the past quarter century made lots and lots of money for Lockheed Martin and other American arms makers.

It's the *failure* of NATO expansion to Ukraine and Georgia which caused the war (and "has made lots of money for Lockheed Martin"). Putin has been very explicit that the countries of the former Soviet Union belong to Russia and have no right to independence. He laid this out in a lengthy article in 2020, in numerous speeches including days before the invasion of Ukraine, and in speeches going back to his declaration years ago that the breakup of the Soviet Union was the "worst catastrophe of the 20th century", i.e. worse than WW2, the Holocaust, and WW1. At the same time, he has always regarded countries under NATO's protective umbrella as - to use Mark Galeotti's expression - bullet-proof, that is, untouchable. That was his real objection to "NATO expansion" to Georgia and Ukraine. NATO has been on Russia's and the USSR's border since its inception in 1949 (Turkey), and that was never an issue. What *was* an issue was the "threat" (in the dictator's eyes) to expand protection to Georgia and Ukraine, which would have prevented Putin from invading those countries, crushing their democracies and self-determination, and seizing their land and annexing it back into Russia. This professor here has got everything completely backwards, but that's no surprise, since he's just parroting word for word a line you can hear on Russian state media every day. The democracies' real mistake - call it a crime if you want to be sanctimonious as is the style on this channel - is to talk up the possibility of those countries joining NATO while doing nothing about it (out of craven fear of Putin). Countries being considered for membership should immediately receive full NATO protection while their application is under consideration. That would have prevented war.
@@sheilamacdougal4874 The US government's sanctions on Russia and its support for the Zelensky government send the following message to the Russian government and to the world: It is about time that Russia learns and accepts that only the US has the right to undertake regime change since the U.S.A. are democratic and Russia is not. Sometimes for practicality, we are happy to have dictators and nasty regimes have our support. Our double standards do not give Russia the right to defy the Western liberal and democratic rules-based system set up by us.
Ukraine is a democracy and if they want to vote to be in NATO and all around them are NATO members then they too should be in NATO and be able to defend themselves from the Russian aggression we have just recently seen, which is a repeat of what they did in the last century which killed millions. Stop listening to Russian propaganda, read more on the history of the whole area, which is way older than Russia, and move into a more enlightened future.
@@sheilamacdougal4874 Precisely. Russian mythology has so permeated many people’s thinking that they don’t see the aggression or Russia right before their eyes. They apparently lack a thorough understanding of the history of the Ukraine and that whole area. And they certainly aren’t thinking of the effected of letting a petroleum oligarch like Putin push his agenda of more fossil fuels for the world.
Great integrity and importance to invite brave Prof Sachs to speak on your show for a better world and life. In contrast, its so sad that to see the news media being so amorally misleading-- like Pontius Pilate washing his hands of horrific events that he is part of.

Ja,let the people who ILLEGALY invaded Iraq and Afghanistan,killing nearly one million people,and who for instance have a policy,an actual policy, that should a US citizen be charged at the ICC the US will attack the Netherlands,let THEM make the international laws.
@@jdQuinnn The U.S. deposed two dictatorships after 9/11 and introduced democratic institutions, in Iraq and Afghanistan. After all the hopes and disappointments of the so-called Arab Spring, Iraq remarkably has nearly the last functioning democracy in the Arab world. (The other is Tunisia, the origin of the Arab Spring, but is on very shaky ground.) The invasion of Iraq was arguably ill-conceived, despite your casualty figures being pure fabrication. Nevertheless, the purpose was to get rid of a genocidal dictator who had used chemical weapons on Kurdish civilians, repressed the Shi'ite majority, subjected Marsh Arabs to brutal destruction, and attempted to seize and annex an entire country, Kuwait. The newly elected Iraqi government put Saddam on trial, in a judicial process considered near impeccable by international observers. The new constitution gave Kurds autonomy for the first time, which they have enjoyed now for twenty years. Whatever one thinks of the invasion - and in the first years polling in Iraq consistently favoured it by a clear majority - there is no comparison to, say, Russia's invasion of Ukraine for the sole purpose of seizing and annexing their territory and crushing their sovereign independence. The American invasion of Afghanistan gave Afghans, including women and girls, 20 years of unprecedented liberties before the Biden administration opted to cut and run. From 2005 to 2008, Afghanistan had the highest percentage of poll numbers favouring the U.S. anywhere in the world, at a staggering 70% approval rate (higher than in the U.S.!) These numbers later declined significantly after the conflict with the resurgent Taliban led to multiple botched drone attacks causing civilian casualties. No territorial claims were ever made against these countries. One can debate whether either or both invasions violated international law, but whatever the outcome of that debate, no attempt was made to change international law, which renders your implied argument irrelevant. The professor here is arguing that the very laws prohibiting aggression, asserting human rights and rights of self-determination, and binding signatories to the UN Charter to intervene in cases of violations of jus cogens or per emptory norms - all laws and norms which the super-dictatorships regularly violate and object to - are objectionable because allegedly made by the democracies. That is repugnant.
The electoral system was created to protect the rich from the rest of the population. One of the Founding Fathers stated that clearly and the Chief Judge of New York recorded it. It's recorded in the Library of Congress and I have read it, but I forget which Founding Father said it. Check it out, American "democracy" is not what so many fine, decent Americans think it is, and never was.
The sooner a two world system comes to fruition the better for the world. Everyone sticks to their backyard and no more shoving democracy down other people throats.

God is democratic and will bless the US against godless China. There are no problems that a good war can't solve. War solves all problems. So, you must hate China and want to kill the Chinese because our government never lies when it talks about China. The US government only tells the truth about China. After all, China certainly has weapons of mass destruction, which is reason enough for the US to go to war with China. Therefore, when it comes to war with China, all Americans must be willing to fight the Chinese, rush to China or Taiwan, and die there happily for democracy.
Sadly you cannot shut down the Military Industrial Complex or the NRA --- they finance the campaigns of American politicians and through them they RULE America

@@davemckolanis4683 yes that's exactly what Sachs is.
Some economists have projected that both the U.S. and parts of Europe could slip into a recession for a portion of 2023. A global recession, defined as a contraction in annual global per capita income, is more rare because China and emerging markets often grow faster than more developed economies. Essentially the world economy is considered to be in recession if economic growth falls behind population growth.
My main concern now is how can we generate more revenue during quantitative times? I can't afford to see my savings crumble to dust.

Remarkable as well is that the interviewer doesn't raise a single one of these very obvious objections, even if only to make a semblance of being a journalist, as opposed to the dogmatic anti-American propagandist that she is.

USA and west is worse than China and Russia.

USA/west installed nukes for terrorist Pakistani regime and trained Al Queda to wage a war with India.
USA funded/supported Saddan Hussian to wage a war with Iran. Later Iraq was invaded by the west accusing Iraq of mass destructive weapons which is now proved to be wrong. Western companies exploit Iraq for its Oil.
West created proxy wars in Syria and African countries to exploit their resources.
The west historically genocided millions and millions of indigenous population in North America, Australia and New Zealand.,etc and enslaved Africans.
I don't support any side but the west is worse than China and Russia.
Excellent analysis by Prof. Jeffery Sachs, many people are not aware of. Thank you for this. I think that USA should understand that others also have rights. And which World Medal is USA aspiring for? In this age that poverty is everywhere nobody is thinking about who has the world power It is not important! We just want to live in peace and enjoy life. If United States can help make peace and not cause wars, may be it can have the World Power Medal. But for now people think United States, Britain, France and some other European countries are pains in the neck of the world.
And what ? North Korea and Russia are our friends ?
If USA is pain in neck then china is cancer pain in the brain when they claim almost the entire south China sea extending thousands of mile from shire when every country in the entire world only get about 200 miles, china disregard international law ruling, they have so called coast guard ships over 3,000 miles away from china and closer to Philippines blocking bullying Philippines fisherman who are trying to fish within their 200 mile economic zone.
It's like me going to my neighbours house all the way to their front door and preventing them from getting their mail down their driveway.
A coast guard ship working closer to other countries is no coast guard, coast guard with a 76mm front mounted cannon ? Does china fend off illegal immigrants of drugs coming in ? It is a military ship, it is massive compared to other countries coast guard, about the size of a destroyer.
Since the OPIUM wars America has been a global bully. Nobody has any ''rights '' in a world where America dictates who may speak and when. USA created a scenario by which the rest of the world can only enjoy freedom by USA;s destruction and overthrow of the US world order. This is the collision course America has steered for itself.
I think the US would rather go to war.

He has his shortcomings all right, and one of them is that he is a pathological liar, if this talk is any indication. Go look up some of the numbers he gave and statements he made. They were absolute fantasy. China does not have the same economy as the US, not in terms of trade, and not even close, the US is about 50% more than China's in GDP. And the percentage of world trade, the dollar is four times every other currency combined. Please, look up the numbers, don't take my word for them, and REALLY don't take his. These are just two examples, I could make the same arguments for almost everything he said. It frightens me that he has the ear of UN policy makers, and it explains a LOT.

Like US domination over the Philippines, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, Colombia, Cuba, Guatemala, Panama, Dominican Republic, Iraq, Iran, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Libya, Laos, Syria, Indonesia, Grenada, Haiti, Mexico, Canada... Hell there are so many I do not have time to list them all. According to Kelly and Laycock's book, the United States has invaded or fought in 84 of the 193 countries recognized by the United Nations and has been militarily involved with 191 of 193, a staggering 98 percent.
You might not know it, but the rest of the world does, it has felt it, and is fed up, just like me, an American citizen, fed up with this country which is not really a country but a MAFIA. What really irks me the most is that with all the taxes I have paid there are 42 MILLION Americans, 12 MILLION of them children, ONE OUT OF SIX, that are starving and our MAFIA in control DOES ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT IT!!!!

On the other hand, the Chinese government put Islamic extremist to educational camps and try to de-radicalize these people attempting to re-accept them into the society instead of bombing the crap out of them. Even then, the western rhetoric still somehow treat this as a so-called "genocide" that I really can't get where they're coming from. Speaking of Hong Kong, where militant protestors sabotage public transportation, government agency and police buildings and still being called "democracy fighters" by the western "mainstream media". While the capitol hill insurrection happened almost the same time, essentially the same group of protestors were called "mob" and depicted as illiterate red-neck instead.

Thank you for speaking the truth, Prof Sachs! Respect!!
Speaking "the truth" in a country that lets him speak whatever he wants, whether he is getting paid for it or is just full of it.
Here's more truth: as it is engaging in performative diplomacy, China is also becoming close to totalitarian internally. I would not romanticize that country or pretend that trading the US empire for a Chinese empire will save us. Totally ridiculous. We are and have been dangerous in many ways-- and China is ALSO a threat to human rights internally as well as in other parts of the world.

China wants to create money based on resources on the ground... We've been there and done that. America was born from that ideology, once they collected enough they stopped feeding the people and the world started wars.
Do you think if China took the rains and said Africa is now worth more than the US? the population and military machine of America wouldn't say bullshit and take Africa. Who will top them, china? Remember china doesn't do charity.
This whole thing is smoke and mirrors. China marketed itself as a good investment and we bought it. Now they have some money they are marketing themselves as the replacement/ equal to America, They ain't even close!
If you buy this BS about BRICS, your dumb! We've tried to help Africa, they don't need infrastructure, they need schools but when we provide them, the idiots stole the children to create gorilla armies to take land and resources. How is china going to fix that? They gonna arm them? Great, more death, more corruption! We've been down this road too.

When China does that, it’s called aggression!🤔

And US wanting to face off against China?? Why not collaborate with mutual respect?
If others steal, you can also steal? If others annex territories, you can also annex the South China Sea and Taiwan. Tibetan and Uighur culture is surpressed because not Chinese. Internet access to the BBC is blocked. Everything that is not supportive of Chinese dictatorship is considered outlawed.
the truth lies on the surface, America needs to defeat two great countries Russia and China to rule the world... everything
it's difficult
He's dreaming. It's not possible with the CCP.
Excellent analysis by Jeffrey Sachs as always. Thanks for inviting him to your program 🙏👍
He obviously doesn’t care about what Ukraine wants or needs to be protected from Russia. I wonder if he would like to live next to a nuclear-filled nation run by a dictator with zero democracy. Both Russia and NATO have expanded into these border nations. I’d leave it to those nations to decide their fate and who they want protection from.

In 250 years of existence as a nation, the US has fought (some successful, some not, some in complete failures) against 29 sovereign countries. (In Fact, since 1785, US have been involved, for 219 years, in some kind of war. And this wars, against all varieties of sovereign nations. From going against the Sultan of Morocco, to invading the tiny island of Grenada. Well, this means that in its entire history, it has only had 17 years of peace, and even fewer, cuz here the almost 5 years (1861-1865), of its Civil War of Secession are not counted (Union/Confederates), since this war was not with another country, but against US. And the wars against the Native Nations of America are not counted too, for the same reason). Anyway: US fought against 29 countries. It has "Grown" 711 times the size of its territory from the original 13 colonies. It has provoked with total impunity, Genocides, inside and outside its own borders, and assassinations of Gov’t. Leaders, Coups d'État and Economic Blockades in 6 UN member nations. (Between 1947 and 1989, the US tried to change other nations gov’ts. 73 times. It includes 66 covert Ops. And 7 overt ones. In Civil Wars: The US has taken advantage of and intervened without justification in the following Civil Wars: In Cuba (1898 and 1960). In Haiti (1813 and then 1915-1934). In Colombia (1899-1902 and 1948). In Mexico (1847 and 1914 and again in 1916). In Russia (1918). In the "Republic Banana Wars" of Central America (1912-1934). In Venezuela (1945 and again in 1948). In China (1857, and 1900, and again in 1945-1946-1949). In Korea (1950-1953). In Viet Nam (1959-1975). In Panama (1964 and again 1989). In Central Africa (1969-1974 and 1982-1988). In Nicaragua (1937 and 1985). In Bosnia (1995). In the Philippines (1898 and 1900)... In Kosovo, Libya, Lebanon, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Yemen, Afghanistan, etc.). And more: US has almost 800 Military Bases scattered around the world; 93 of which are against China. On the other hand, China and Korea (The "Axis of Evil"), in 1,000 years of history have NEVER invaded anyone. These nations have fought their Civil Wars, defended themselves against foreign invasions, and secured their immediate borders, but they have never been meddling or aggressor countries. Do you know how many Military Bases China or Korea have outside their territory? None. Zero. Any. NADA! They do not have a single Base. These are verifiable facts. Neither China nor Korea will invade the world; US does... that's DONE, as US does in the Middle East. Iran also does not have a SINGLE MILITARY BASE outside its national territory, and it is surrounded by 16 US Bases, and it is US who call the Iranians Terrorists. Well, very good. You already know. Now, compare the Greatness of the US with the Greatness of China. The "Greatness" of the US is built on the foundations of Piracy, Slavery, Genocide, the Assassination of opponents, Opium Traffic, or Cocaine in its case, and is under the foundations of the weakness of other sovereign nations.

Thank you Prof. Jeffrey Sachs for helping US politicians and Congressional leaders understand the situation.
Thank you for telling it as it is -the truth related to U waste of US dollars. US picking a fight and making Russia and China uncomfortable by getting too close…
Thank you for clarifying the real issues!
As someone living in Europe I often fail to get my point of view across on the Ukraine conflict mainly because it has so many factors and people don't see how it all ties together. Mr Sachs really gives us a broad perspective on the issue. Thank you for this report
I agree with you as a EU citizen who doesn't live in the EU right now.
Actually, Mr. Sachs gave us Russian propaganda. For him to talk about Putin's "red line" as if it had any legitimacy whatsoever is disgraceful. Putin's "red line" literally means "Ukraine will do what I want, or I will destroy Ukraine". There is no reason for any country to take that garbage into consideration. It shows a complete lack of respect for Ukraine's independence and sovereignty. That lack of respect is also clear in Putin's repeated remarks about Ukraine being "not a country" and having an "illegitimate" government.
There is nothing wrong with Ukraine taking Putin's concerns into account when UKRAINE decides for itself what alliances it will or will not join.
Sachs repeatedly left Ukraine out, implying that the US is making decisions for them, which there is no evidence for, and which is pure, unadulterated Russian propaganda.
As a side, Putin's belief that Ukraine's government is not legitimate is rich coming from a man who literally rigged his own election and changed laws to pave the way for him to become dictator-for-life. I was actually in Ukraine during Zelensky's campaign. Support for him was organic, even as far east as Mariupol. There is zero evidence for claiming that Zelensky was installed by the US.
What is your point of view, comrade? Please elaborate.
Europeans are some of the most manipulated people in the world by their media which are usually aligned with Washington’s perspective.
well sure but dont overcomplicate things in terms of breaching international law

well put. i would like to think it's possible but, in routine life here, the mindset seems increasingly about demonizing china :/
I wholeheartedly agree...to accomplish this we need at least a third political party that shuns all corporate sponsorship. However this seems like daydreaming
You said it better than I.
The changes coming following Covid exposed the flaws with doing business with Regime led corrupt countries. China and co trying to profit from everyone's misery while the USA, Europe, Oz etc pulled together. Brics nations haven't presented factual economic data in over 3 years and their countries are socially unstable. The question by 2025 wont be 'are we going to war with China?' It will be 'are we going to feed the over populated hell scapes still because we're socially responsible or will we just throw open our borders and swallow up their healthy youth with potential?'.
The Internet and ease of travel has screwed these countries long term. There's only so much the poor brics populations can endure before they just revolt... in a huge way. Its disturbing to think of young Ukrainian and Russian kids dying for old men with an antiquated view of civilisation. Fingers crossed in a few decades, teens now will have forged a new world order together and enjoy equality no matter where they were born.

We need the democracies to shut up about human rights.
In a "multilateral world" led by the two nuclear superpower dictatorships and their nuclear North Korean ally, the new "rules" will not allow complaints about "so-called human rights", as those governments are fond of calling them. There will be no rule barring invasion of and annexation of Ukraine or Georgia by Russia (or invasion of any other country deemed in Russia's "sphere of influence"), nor any rule prohibiting China's impending invasion of Taiwan and suppression of democracy there, or seizure of the South China Sea in violation of current international law, treaties, the World Court, and the wishes of countries of the region (Vietnam, Taiwan, Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, etc.).

I ❤Jeffrey Sachs!
You are so right.May USA wakeup from their dreams and know that most of the world want a multi-polar world. The USA and their allies who opt to persist in their dreams must wakeup soon so that nobody suffer because of them
Sure, you can have a multipolar world, but you don’t get to invade other nations Willy nilly. Bush’s illegal invasion of Iraq lost the respect the USA barely had left… now Russia takes advantage. The multipolar world might be something that really sucks for those living in the West for multiple reasons. It’s gonna happen, but we can’t let Putin decide he can invade anyone willy nilly and conduct illegal wars like Bush did. All nations must refrain from such illegal invasions. Bush, Putin, should be sent to Geneva together.
💯
You don’t think that China wants to be a world power? This seems more like a shift in world dominance between Russia, China, and the US.
Not if what you mean by multi polar world is having to turn a blind on the atrocities committed by dictatorial regimes like the CCP, mad rulers like Putin and Kim Jong Un, those little murdering tyrants in Africa, Myanmar, etc
Disgusting how people who oppose the west and their allies really can stomach the CCP, the murderous military junta in Myanmar, and the likes of Putin and Kim Jong Un just to have a counterbalance to the west. 😩
In fact, the US has no allies. The United States has vassals who strictly follow the orders of the hegemon.
This was a very important Geopolitical Discussion !! And perspectives to consider!! Russia did speak out a long, long time ago !! About and against NATO expansion with some warnings and thoughts without much thought back then and consideration!! Truly things do need to be looked at both sides at the same time!! Not just one-sided !!!
And what about the sides off all the democratic countries that choose to join NATO (a defensive alliance), or do you agree with putin that and “Eastern European” countries don’t deserve sovereignty? Maybe ask yourself why all these countries wanted to join NATO in the first place, and do some research on ruSSian history and modern beliefs.

Fantastic!! Great lecturing and displane
Wow. I’m embarrassed by how little of this I knew or understood before. This is tremendous. I would say I watch almost too much news but I’ve never… never heard this explained. I was going to say “… heard this explained so clearly”, but I realized, actually no. Never heard it explained. At least not in the past decade I’ve been an avid news watcher. I see what’s happening to the modern GOP due to echo chambers and sheltering folks from knowledge. I also understand how that was used to keep slaves from helping themselves or fighting back at a time in this country. So I get realllly uncomfortable (to say the least) seeing how much of the world I’m not seeing even in our “world news” because the perspective is skewed. And so I don’t empathize maybe? Wow.
And so much LOOKS different now. Like when you rewatch the Sixth Sense once you know the twist. Truly 🤯.
Thank you so much Prof and Democracy Now!
That's an honest confession, I applaud you for sharing. I just want to point out the 'eco chamber' and 'sheltering folk from knowledge' is not isolated to modern GOP. This is equally true for modern Democratic party. When it comes to foreign policy, the modern political establishment is a uniparty (with a few exceptions), hellbent on maintaining global hegemony and a unipolar world, and saturates the mainstream media with propaganda to gather political support for their agenda.
One mightn’t have heard this perspective before if one relies on DN! too exclusively. DN! has become a mouthpiece for the neoliberal agenda on a few issues, the Ukraine war being one. (Syria, Nicaragua, Russiagate being amoung others.)
Having said that - I am SO GLAD DN! chose to break free and interview Mr. Sachs on this subject! I look forward to Aaron Mate making a glorious return to the show as well.
@@striker44 She has many valuable viewpoints. But being Indian herself, she can often be overtly pro India and anti China.
@@taolin8084 Agree. She needs to share the bashing to all world leaders, including her own country, India. But, she leaves that to Western media which bashes India anyway.
Putin and Russia is ushering this in. China is scared to pick a side. Putin is in it all the way
Thank you very much Mr. Sachs. I too believe that either every country or every continent must have a representative on the world stage not only five countries. Respect is why countries are turning away from the West. The West must treat all countries with the same respect she thinks she deserved and not to make the rules for the world. Every country must be represented, that would be fair and it would keep peace around the world.
I agree. The US acting as if the other countries wanting the same respect that is given. Unfortunately it is very hard for us humans to understand their is more to world economics and hopefully world peace someday soon. Tic TOC. Better late than never giving a thought as to the damage we may have inflicted with our arrogance. Does that make sense? Hmm
yes Jeff ,when pres Putin has finished killing all his own soldiers [cannon fodder] maybe he will have time to be fair and teach us all about peace ,jeeff arent you lucky to be able to castigate the American government WHY DONT YOU TRY IT WITH THE rUSSIAN AND CHINESE GOVERNMENT JEFF I will prepare your coffin

All that power and yet they haven't kept the peace.
Very well said Prof😊😊
MrSachs, mr Davis Hanson, Col. Mc Gregor, are the only 3 people worth to listen to regarding geo politics/Ukraine war.
Glad to see DN put Sachs on again. I was getting worried about some of the positions DN was taking in the last few years. May it recapture its former reputation and never cater to funders.
In the 1990s, Robert Kagan, along with Bill Kristol, who is on Institute for Study of War(ISW) board, founded the Project for a New American Century, which in the view of some observers played an important role in convincing George W. Bush to invade Iraq.
The Kagan-Kristol Project for a New American Century(PNAC) was funded by arms makers, thanks largely to the work of Lockheed Martin executive Bruce P. Jackson, who became a director of PNAC. Jackson had earlier organized the US Committee to Expand NATO, which successfully lobbied for what its name suggests it lobbied for. Some people think NATO expansion-in particular George W. Bush’s 2008 addition of Ukraine to the list of future members-helped cause the Ukraine war, but in any event NATO expansion has over the past quarter century made lots and lots of money for Lockheed Martin and other American arms makers.

It's the *failure* of NATO expansion to Ukraine and Georgia which caused the war (and "has made lots of money for Lockheed Martin"). Putin has been very explicit that the countries of the former Soviet Union belong to Russia and have no right to independence. He laid this out in a lengthy article in 2020, in numerous speeches including days before the invasion of Ukraine, and in speeches going back to his declaration years ago that the breakup of the Soviet Union was the "worst catastrophe of the 20th century", i.e. worse than WW2, the Holocaust, and WW1. At the same time, he has always regarded countries under NATO's protective umbrella as - to use Mark Galeotti's expression - bullet-proof, that is, untouchable. That was his real objection to "NATO expansion" to Georgia and Ukraine. NATO has been on Russia's and the USSR's border since its inception in 1949 (Turkey), and that was never an issue. What *was* an issue was the "threat" (in the dictator's eyes) to expand protection to Georgia and Ukraine, which would have prevented Putin from invading those countries, crushing their democracies and self-determination, and seizing their land and annexing it back into Russia. This professor here has got everything completely backwards, but that's no surprise, since he's just parroting word for word a line you can hear on Russian state media every day. The democracies' real mistake - call it a crime if you want to be sanctimonious as is the style on this channel - is to talk up the possibility of those countries joining NATO while doing nothing about it (out of craven fear of Putin). Countries being considered for membership should immediately receive full NATO protection while their application is under consideration. That would have prevented war.
@@sheilamacdougal4874
The US government's sanctions on Russia and its support for the Zelensky government send the following message to the Russian government and to the world: It is about time that Russia learns and accepts that only the US has the right to undertake regime change since the U.S.A. are democratic and Russia is not. Sometimes for practicality, we are happy to have dictators and nasty regimes have our support. Our double standards do not give Russia the right to defy the Western liberal and democratic rules-based system set up by us.
Ukraine is a democracy and if they want to vote to be in NATO and all around them are NATO members then they too should be in NATO and be able to defend themselves from the Russian aggression we have just recently seen, which is a repeat of what they did in the last century which killed millions. Stop listening to Russian propaganda, read more on the history of the whole area, which is way older than Russia, and move into a more enlightened future.
@@sheilamacdougal4874 Precisely. Russian mythology has so permeated many people’s thinking that they don’t see the aggression or Russia right before their eyes. They apparently lack a thorough understanding of the history of the Ukraine and that whole area. And they certainly aren’t thinking of the effected of letting a petroleum oligarch like Putin push his agenda of more fossil fuels for the world.
Great integrity and importance to invite brave Prof Sachs to speak on your show for a better world and life. In contrast, its so sad that to see the news media being so amorally misleading-- like Pontius Pilate washing his hands of horrific events that he is part of.
America and other Western countries are stuck under bureaucratic and capitalistic paralyzation.

Ja,let the people who ILLEGALY invaded Iraq and Afghanistan,killing nearly one million people,and who for instance have a policy,an actual policy, that should a US citizen be charged at the ICC the US will attack the Netherlands,let THEM make the international laws.
@@jdQuinnn The U.S. deposed two dictatorships after 9/11 and introduced democratic institutions, in Iraq and Afghanistan. After all the hopes and disappointments of the so-called Arab Spring, Iraq remarkably has nearly the last functioning democracy in the Arab world. (The other is Tunisia, the origin of the Arab Spring, but is on very shaky ground.) The invasion of Iraq was arguably ill-conceived, despite your casualty figures being pure fabrication. Nevertheless, the purpose was to get rid of a genocidal dictator who had used chemical weapons on Kurdish civilians, repressed the Shi'ite majority, subjected Marsh Arabs to brutal destruction, and attempted to seize and annex an entire country, Kuwait. The newly elected Iraqi government put Saddam on trial, in a judicial process considered near impeccable by international observers. The new constitution gave Kurds autonomy for the first time, which they have enjoyed now for twenty years. Whatever one thinks of the invasion - and in the first years polling in Iraq consistently favoured it by a clear majority - there is no comparison to, say, Russia's invasion of Ukraine for the sole purpose of seizing and annexing their territory and crushing their sovereign independence.
The American invasion of Afghanistan gave Afghans, including women and girls, 20 years of unprecedented liberties before the Biden administration opted to cut and run. From 2005 to 2008, Afghanistan had the highest percentage of poll numbers favouring the U.S. anywhere in the world, at a staggering 70% approval rate (higher than in the U.S.!) These numbers later declined significantly after the conflict with the resurgent Taliban led to multiple botched drone attacks causing civilian casualties. No territorial claims were ever made against these countries. One can debate whether either or both invasions violated international law, but whatever the outcome of that debate, no attempt was made to change international law, which renders your implied argument irrelevant. The professor here is arguing that the very laws prohibiting aggression, asserting human rights and rights of self-determination, and binding signatories to the UN Charter to intervene in cases of violations of jus cogens or per emptory norms - all laws and norms which the super-dictatorships regularly violate and object to - are objectionable because allegedly made by the democracies. That is repugnant.

Never going to happen. There is way too much corruption in the US.
The electoral system was created to protect the rich from the rest of the population. One of the Founding Fathers stated that clearly and the Chief Judge of New York recorded it. It's recorded in the Library of Congress and I have read it, but I forget which Founding Father said it. Check it out, American "democracy" is not what so many fine, decent Americans think it is, and never was.
