2025/10/17

As they say, it is always darkest before the dawn. Though this discussion was recorded at noon, Brussels time today, figuratively speaking it took place before the “dawn” that arrived at 8pm when the Kremlin released a lengthy summary of the just completed two-and-a-half-hour phone call between Presidents Putin and Trump. To all appearances, that … Continue reading Conversation with Professor Glenn Diesen, 16 October: NATO-Russia War May Now Be Unavoidable →
