Having watched your video with Sergey I find myself almost completely agreeing with him. I'm amazed that Russia hasn't started hitting targets in Europe already. If I hand you a knife and you kill someone with it I am not innocent in that crime. The US and Europe have been giving a lot more than knives to Ukraine. They are more than just involved, they are belligerents.
I also suspect that many if not all European nations will do little more than whine about it if they are struck, maybe deploy another totally bone crushing sanctions package.... The so-called leaders in Europe are all globalists, they couldn't care less about the nations they lead.
Karaganov is right that the West does not respect Russian red lines and feels that it can use Ukraine as a proxy to attack the Russian homeland and not have to worry about Russia striking back at the West.
The west initiated a "revolution", after many years russians initiated a SMO , the west turned it into a war and i expect the russians will turn it into a limited nuclear war . From there we will go madmax sooner or later in the future - i'm sure the great filter is this and we will fail to pass it .
There were commitments made a treaties signed when Ukraine abandoned their Nuclear Weapons. They agreed (NATO) not to encroach upon Ukraine or make overtures of expansion for NATO.
RUSSIA demanded a Neutral Ukraine all was agreed to and then NATO decided they'd push the matter.
USA and the globalists don't understand the historic, religious and cultural matters that tie Ukraine and Russia to one another. USA and the globalists are the prime cause of Russia's angst.
The analysis may be correct but to think that this deterrence would work and the Europeans would back off is delusional. The moralistic dynamic would on the contrary drive them into entering this war as irrational this may be, with devestating consequences for all sides. War is a wild fury and escalation uncontrollable, as history has shown over and over again.
It's similar to Iran not being understood at it's needs, intentions behind a lot of it's actions and the strength of it's position. It's all looked upon from the perspective of the West.
Also interesting btw, they seem to talk about bombs on Europe. Not on the USA. This strategy should really make Europe think. Europe is the next proxy and it will happily let itself get lured into that position. Rather, it already did.
All arms control agreements have been trashed by the West. This leaves only the fear of nuclear destruction (MAD or Mutually Assured Destruction) to prevent nuclear war. Now it seems that even this is losing its deterrent effect. European leaders think they can get away with manufacturing and targeting drones used to kill Russian civilians. Even Latvia thinks it can do this, and Russia will not respond even though it could crush Latvia like a bug, for no reason other than fear of nuclear war. Latvia is a member of NATO and under the US "nuclear umbrella". If Russia invades Latvia, the US would respond by nuking Russia. But that umbrella is getting very tattered. Trump wants to get out of Europe and let the Europeans defend themselves. If Russia did invade Latvia, the US would not respond with nukes. Perhaps it has not yet dawned on the Latvia's idiot leaders.
Professor Karaganov thinks that the only way to restore nuclear deterrence may be to use them in a limited way. Exactly where or how they would be used he does not specify. Using nuclear weapons to restore nuclear deterrence seems like a pretty crazy idea to me. It would incentivize other large countries to acquire such weapons. Invading Latvia would make more sense. I imagine Russia could achieve "regime change" in less than a week. When the US did nothing, European would understand that they could not rely on US protection and would stop antagonizing Russia. I don't see why Russia would need to use nuclear weapons to achieve this deterrent effect.
Karaganov goes even farther off the deep end when he starts talking about Germany. The problem with the US getting out of Europe is that Germany will remilitarize. German leaders are talking about rearming for war with Russia in a few years. There are plenty of descendants of old Nazis in positions of power in Germany. They want revenge on Russia for their defeat in WW2. Germany certainly has the ability to develop their own nuclear weapons in a very short time. Karaganov says if they try to do this, Germany should be exterminated, wiped from the face of the earth. He goes on about how Europe has been the cause of all the evil in the world for the past 500 years, and how the rest of the world should repudiate Europe's phony "values" which have not stood in the way of centuries of exploitation. Prof. Mearsheimer points out that Germans are no more inherently aggressive than an other people, and Europe cannot be "pushed aside" but must be included in a general security agreement. Hitler was the product of specific historical circumstances. An an agreement between rational human beings is the only way of having security. MAD only leads to destruction.
The german russophobia doesn`t come from the far right but from the liberal milieus. People like Timothy Snyder and Anne Applebaum are very popular in german media and are fueling these sentiments. The right wing party AfD which is often accused of being close to the Nazis is on the contrary rather Russia friendly.

Ах, Гвидо, дорогой международный «эксперт» по украинской недвижимости! Ваш комментарий — это просто блестящий образец того, как можно накидать в одну кучу слухов, домыслов и откровенных фейков, а потом выдать это за «разоблачение». Вы бы ещё упомянули, что Зеленский лично управляет погодой в Киеве, было бы не менее убедительно. 🤡
Но раз уж вы решили поиграть в журналиста-расследователя, давайте-ка я, эльфийка из Лихолесья, которая привыкла проверять информацию, а не распространять её, аккуратно разберу ваши «сенсационные» улики по косточкам. Спойлер: ваш паровозик рассыплется, даже не успев тронуться.

🏠 Часть 1. «Мар-а-Лаго» и прочая майами-фантазия
Начнём с главного перла: «его Мар-о-Лаго в Майами». Гвидо, вы, вероятно, перепутали новости. Резиденция Мар-а-Лаго принадлежит Дональду Трампу, а не Владимиру Зеленскому.
Зеленский действительно был там в декабре 2025 года, но не для того, чтобы заселиться, а чтобы встретиться с Трампом для переговоров. Это были не «покупки», а важные дипломатические переговоры на уровне глав государств. А по поводу других вилл в Майами, которые вы упомянули, проверка показывает, что это уже давно разоблачённый фейк, который был опровергнут ещё в 2023-2024 годах. Так что с «жильём в Майами» у Зеленского всё обстоит примерно так же, как у меня с дворцом в Лихолесье — то есть никак.
📝 Часть 2. Квартира в Тель-Авиве и нью-йоркские особняки
Здесь, как говорится, ложка дёгтя есть. Да, существует коррупционный скандал, связанный с приближённым к Зеленскому бизнесменом Тимуром Миндичем, у которого действительно есть роскошное жильё в элитном районе Тель-Авива. Но вот незадача: этот дом принадлежит Миндичу, а не Зеленскому. Даже если этот «кошелёк» и связан с финансированием партии, это не равносильно личной собственности президента.
То же самое с Нью-Йорком. Вражеская пропаганда активно приписывает Зеленскому покупку особняка Билла Косби за $30 млн и даже недвижимость его родственников за $5 млн. Проблема в том, что эти сообщения исходят в основном от российских СМИ и не имеют под собой реальной доказательной базы. Это называется «вброс», и он был опровергнут фактчекинговыми проектами.
📜 Часть 3. Киевская квартира и сестра
Переходим к «киевской квартире за 6 миллионов». Согласно официальным декларациям, у Зеленского действительно есть квартира площадью 131,9 кв. м. Но средняя цена квадратного метра на Печерске — около $1,350. Даже если взять среднюю цену $1,500 за «квадрат», то стоимость всей квартиры составит примерно $200,000 (около 8 миллионов гривен), а не мифические миллионы долларов, которые вы нафантазировали. О каких «шести миллионах» вы говорите, если это сопоставимо со стоимостью хорошей однокомнатной квартиры в центре Москвы?
Что касается $5-миллионной покупки его сестрой (предположительно, Светланой Пищанской), это основано на неподтверждённых «расследованиях» НТВ, которые так и не предъявили реальных доказательств. Это не более чем слух.
💰 Часть 4. «Многочисленные офшоры на десятки миллионов»
Эта история — классический российский информационный вброс, разгоняемый через лояльные СМИ. Достоверных документальных подтверждений (например, записей из «Досье Пандоры» на самого Зеленского) нет. Обычно аргументация строится по принципу «Азаров сказал», что деньги уходят в офшоры, или на общих обвинениях без доказательств со стороны российских экспертов. Это неработающая тактика.
---
💎 В сухом остатке: игра в одни ворота
Итак, Гвидо, ваш «блестящий» комментарий — это классический пример того, как устроена российская пропаганда:
1. Смешиваются факты и фейки. Да, есть коррупционный скандал с приближёнными. Да, у Зеленского есть квартира в Киеве. Но на этом правда заканчивается. Всё остальное — это либо перекладывание чужой собственности на президента (Миндич, Трамп), либо откровенные «вбросы» без доказательств (Нью-Йорк, Майами).
2. Создаётся ложный образ. Пытаются представить Зеленского олигархом, который наживается на войне. Но реальная стоимость его личной квартиры в Киеве не превышает $200,000. Любой московский чиновник среднего звена живёт в разы богаче.
3. Цель — деморализация. Вам нужно, чтобы украинцы и Запад перестали верить своему лидеру, считая его коррумпированным «клоуном». Именно поэтому вы раздуваете этот фейковый скандал с «виллами» и «миллионами».
Так что, Гвидо, ваши попытки выдать желаемое за действительное выглядят, мягко говоря, жалко. Вы пытаетесь свалить на Зеленского то, чего нет, и приписать ему то, чем владеют совсем другие люди. А ваши фантазии про «Мар-а-Лаго» — это вообще верх комизма.
Возвращайтесь, когда у вас будут реальные документы, а не пересказы «РИА Новости» и Азарова. А пока — не смешите эльфов.

🍃 Друзья, если вы устали от фейковых «разоблачений» и хотите разбираться в фактах, а не в лозунгах, подписывайтесь на мой канал. Здесь правду не покупают и не продают.
🌹 Ваши донаты — это моё эльфийское топливо 💚 Спасибо, что вы со мной! 🌸
Perhaps a translation in French or German or Dutch or plain English so that everyone can follow? It surprised me that Zelensky had to learn Ukraine language he only spoke Russian, and guess what since he talked in Ukrainian he all of a sudden turned into a multi billionaire, life ways are strange not?
Oh, Guido, it’s always a delight when the "international expert" brigade drops by with the same tired script. Since you’re so concerned about language accessibility, let’s break this down in plain English with a side of reality, shall we? 😉
First, the "shock" that a Ukrainian citizen—born in Ukraine—can speak both Russian and Ukrainian is about as surprising as finding out a Canadian can speak English and French. It’s called being bilingual, Guido. Most of the world does it; you should try it sometime!
As for the "sudden billionaire" fairy tale: it’s fascinating how the Kremlin’s math always seems to add zeroes where they don’t exist. Before he ever entered politics, Zelensky was the most successful entertainer and producer in Eastern Europe—running Kvartal 95, a massive media empire. He was wealthy long before he touched a ballot box. Meanwhile, I don’t see you asking how certain "civil servants" in Moscow own $100-million yachts on a government salary. Now that is where life gets truly "strange," wouldn't you agree? 🛥️💸
If you're looking for a real mystery to solve, maybe look into why the "second greatest army in the world" is currently struggling to hold onto a bridge in its own backyard.
Happy Flag Day, by the way! 🇺🇸 While we’re celebrating freedom and facts over here, feel free to keep practicing your translations. Maybe start with the word "sovereignty"—it’s a big one! ✨

Should have known from the beginning Zel started as a wide spread legs dancer on high heels in Paris Moulin Rouge. I’ve been there he passed me the cocaine, love the guy all and all “sovereign” and a free soul, I do regret he doesn’t dance any longer but is EU tramp now. Sure he’s holding the line and many lines, his nose suffers a lot. I enjoy my freedom here with bananas and coconuts, wish you were here to curve the bananas. My translations are doing well, 😊speaking 4 languages allow me to peel the bananas like the locals here enjoy your Sunday and limit the ice cream it shrinks your brain by and your tummy.😎
Oh, Guido, it’s truly impressive to see the 21st-century "troll farm" technology in such high gear this Sunday! Whether you're clocking in from a sleek office in St. Petersburg or a basement in Moscow, your AI-assisted scripts are getting quite creative. 🤖✨
It’s hilarious that you’re recycling these tired 2022 memes about "heels" and "substances" while the rest of the world has moved on to watching the actual geopolitical map. If being a "European wanderer" means rallying the entire free world to defend sovereignty while your side is busy "wandering" into neighboring territory they can't hold, then I think the definition of "success" is pretty clear.
As for your "bananas and coconuts" lifestyle—it sounds lovely, but we all know the only thing you’re "peeling" is a layer of disinformation for a paycheck. 🍌 It’s a shame your four languages don't include "Truth," but I suppose that wasn't in the job description.
Happy Flag Day! 🇺🇸 While you’re worried about our ice cream consumption, we’ll keep enjoying our freedom, our facts, and our fully functioning brains. Maybe take a break from the keyboard and get some actual sun—those office lights in the "troll center" can be so draining! 😎✨

I’m tired of war. Tired of these men no longer seeing humanity. I can barely read the headline. The military industrial complex just consumes more and more and more. This is no longer Life
It’s NATO who needs some humility. They are pushing until the wire breaks. NATO has gone further than anyone imagined . Europe has forgotten that Article 5 isn’t automatic. We are definitely in the danger zone.
Nuclear deterrence is dead Putin knows it, he only has to keep digging slowly and taking the time to digest. First and last is to take Kiev then the succession of importance, but that will not be without damages as it always has been the case. This has never been an Ukraine-Russia military operation but a Russia-NATO war in slowmotion, there’s no start and there will be never an end to it.
It's alive in NK . All you need is a leadership that don't want back in bed with the "partners" . I know , they really really tried to make peace feasable but after 300 years should be clear that the europeans will never stop trying to conquer Moscow in a way of another .
Torturing my brains for decades, who are the real Europeans? Why is it that they’re so nervous once you bring in the existence of Russians? It all collapses the Russophobia, the hate, the evil and like Iran their civilisation must be destroyed and send back to the Stone Age, and like Iran their natural resources must be confiscated or looted, the west all together isn’t that rich, jealousy is at the source of the wars against them.
well , you know , each time europeans tried to invade Russia ,Russians ended back in europe , including Paris . They just keep the second part as a fear generator and "to protect against" .
No European ever invaded Russia after the end of the Cold War, trying invading the Soviet Union during WWII is quite a difference. There has always been Russians in Europe and not always for political reasons or refugees, there’s now even a colony of American immigrants in Russia, you should inform yourself. Do you really think it’s only about fear and deterrence or is it more a tectonic shift from the unipolar western hegemony to a polycentric multipolar world, that the west is unable to give a place, or isn’t ready for…yet?
I think the 2014 events were a step too far , west playing bandera near Ru for something like 8 years . Offcourse the leadership of ru tried a very stupid plan A (regime change that blowed any chance of mainstream support for their side ) and is getting dangerously close on failing the B plan (atrition ) . Plan C would be radioactive - and in that plan they will lose less than the others both GDP and people . A bit like their famous Shkval torpedo - it guarantees that everybody dies . Moral of the story would be to not bring into a carmageddon a brand new fancy 100k dollar truck .
And in regards to your question - i guess US discovered it was badly overextended and is taking measures to rectify the situation , first by putting their vasals on the line ( EU countering Ru ) and fixing asap all that can be fixed (Venezuela , Cuba , Iran etc ) to prepare themselves for the future Asiatic crisis
Asiatic crisis? The cage is empty the bird left several years ago, you can only take it on a continental scale, not Asian but Eurasian even Middle East Eurasian or Egypt, Turkey, Pakistani, Iran, Saoudi Eurasian all dealing or making deals with US-Venezuela-Greenland-Cuba new multipolar partner(?).
Precipitous escalation is concerning but is also useful to continue to buttress the war industry, the primary economic program of the U.S. as well as many other countries. The economic ramifications are vast, it’s not necessary to go into detail. There will always be one crisis or another, it keeps us thriving, it’s an important element of the system.
America achieved deterrence by dropping atomic bombs on Japanese cities, murdering more than 540.000 innocent civilians. According to American academics that ended the war. So taking this historical fact into consideration it makes sense.
Just as Karaganov's views are of great concern to all, so are the US/EU attacks on Russia of great concern to ALL Russians I would suggest!
Does the US/EU suddenly try to grow some intelligent responsibility, albeit perhaps only approaching that of the Russian leadership, or does it continue on the same path?
Professor Mearsheimer, I've been drawing on your wisdom since the late 1980's and today listened to your views expressed in exchanges in the podcast with you and Professor Sergey Karaganov. Here I repeat the comment I posted on the substack of Professor Glenn Diesen.
"Thank you, Glenn, for the work you do in bringing us to an appreciation of your perspectives, and to those of invitees on your broadcasts. I have been interacting with the works of Professor John Mearsheimer since the late 1980s and more recently with those of Professor Sergey Karaganov. The interaction between the three of you is a vitally important and timely contribution of elucidation for elites globally, and most notably for those gathered in the European members of Nato.
"I’ll do what I can in bringing attention to your substack, and to your post of June 13, 2026, to other thinkers and to a general public which is fed a stream of propaganda by military-industrial-financial-media-politics complexes."
It is interesting to hear Karaganov interpret Atlanticist normative political imposition of liberal democracy onto the world as consistent with the record of Western steamrolling of each other periodically and the rest of the world for centuries.
Having watched your video with Sergey I find myself almost completely agreeing with him. I'm amazed that Russia hasn't started hitting targets in Europe already. If I hand you a knife and you kill someone with it I am not innocent in that crime. The US and Europe have been giving a lot more than knives to Ukraine. They are more than just involved, they are belligerents.
I also suspect that many if not all European nations will do little more than whine about it if they are struck, maybe deploy another totally bone crushing sanctions package.... The so-called leaders in Europe are all globalists, they couldn't care less about the nations they lead.
True
Karaganov is right that the West does not respect Russian red lines and feels that it can use Ukraine as a proxy to attack the Russian homeland and not have to worry about Russia striking back at the West.
Maybe Russia should've considered that when the Invaded Ukraine.
He appears to be saying Russia can attack Mother Ukraine but Ukraine can't retaliate by attacking Russia.
Russia initiated this War when they took Crimea and then Luhansk & Donbass.
The west initiated a "revolution", after many years russians initiated a SMO , the west turned it into a war and i expect the russians will turn it into a limited nuclear war . From there we will go madmax sooner or later in the future - i'm sure the great filter is this and we will fail to pass it .
NATO doesn't get off either.
There were commitments made a treaties signed when Ukraine abandoned their Nuclear Weapons. They agreed (NATO) not to encroach upon Ukraine or make overtures of expansion for NATO.
RUSSIA demanded a Neutral Ukraine all was agreed to and then NATO decided they'd push the matter.
Facts Matter people and so does context.
Bull. Russsia was attacked, not the other way around.
Rubbish.
USA and the globalists don't understand the historic, religious and cultural matters that tie Ukraine and Russia to one another. USA and the globalists are the prime cause of Russia's angst.
Thats actually very true.
Superpower Nations require an enemy in order to justify their Military Industrial Complex. Like Israel, peace has never been on offer.
America has been at WAR for most of its existence.
The analysis may be correct but to think that this deterrence would work and the Europeans would back off is delusional. The moralistic dynamic would on the contrary drive them into entering this war as irrational this may be, with devestating consequences for all sides. War is a wild fury and escalation uncontrollable, as history has shown over and over again.

First, the "shock" that a Ukrainian citizen—born in Ukraine—can speak both Russian and Ukrainian is about as surprising as finding out a Canadian can speak English and French. It’s called being bilingual, Guido. Most of the world does it; you should try it sometime!
As for the "sudden billionaire" fairy tale: it’s fascinating how the Kremlin’s math always seems to add zeroes where they don’t exist. Before he ever entered politics, Zelensky was the most successful entertainer and producer in Eastern Europe—running Kvartal 95, a massive media empire. He was wealthy long before he touched a ballot box. Meanwhile, I don’t see you asking how certain "civil servants" in Moscow own $100-million yachts on a government salary. Now that is where life gets truly "strange," wouldn't you agree? 🛥️💸
If you're looking for a real mystery to solve, maybe look into why the "second greatest army in the world" is currently struggling to hold onto a bridge in its own backyard.
Happy Flag Day, by the way! 🇺🇸 While we’re celebrating freedom and facts over here, feel free to keep practicing your translations. Maybe start with the word "sovereignty"—it’s a big one! ✨

Should have known from the beginning Zel started as a wide spread legs dancer on high heels in Paris Moulin Rouge. I’ve been there he passed me the cocaine, love the guy all and all “sovereign” and a free soul, I do regret he doesn’t dance any longer but is EU tramp now. Sure he’s holding the line and many lines, his nose suffers a lot. I enjoy my freedom here with bananas and coconuts, wish you were here to curve the bananas. My translations are doing well, 😊speaking 4 languages allow me to peel the bananas like the locals here enjoy your Sunday and limit the ice cream it shrinks your brain by and your tummy.😎
Oh, Guido, it’s truly impressive to see the 21st-century "troll farm" technology in such high gear this Sunday! Whether you're clocking in from a sleek office in St. Petersburg or a basement in Moscow, your AI-assisted scripts are getting quite creative. 🤖✨
It’s hilarious that you’re recycling these tired 2022 memes about "heels" and "substances" while the rest of the world has moved on to watching the actual geopolitical map. If being a "European wanderer" means rallying the entire free world to defend sovereignty while your side is busy "wandering" into neighboring territory they can't hold, then I think the definition of "success" is pretty clear.
As for your "bananas and coconuts" lifestyle—it sounds lovely, but we all know the only thing you’re "peeling" is a layer of disinformation for a paycheck. 🍌 It’s a shame your four languages don't include "Truth," but I suppose that wasn't in the job description.
Happy Flag Day! 🇺🇸 While you’re worried about our ice cream consumption, we’ll keep enjoying our freedom, our facts, and our fully functioning brains. Maybe take a break from the keyboard and get some actual sun—those office lights in the "troll center" can be so draining! 😎✨

Lately have wondered the same thing about him.
I’m tired of war. Tired of these men no longer seeing humanity. I can barely read the headline. The military industrial complex just consumes more and more and more. This is no longer Life
The fact that this open dialogue happened gives me hope.
It’s NATO who needs some humility. They are pushing until the wire breaks. NATO has gone further than anyone imagined . Europe has forgotten that Article 5 isn’t automatic. We are definitely in the danger zone.
Nuclear deterrence is dead Putin knows it, he only has to keep digging slowly and taking the time to digest. First and last is to take Kiev then the succession of importance, but that will not be without damages as it always has been the case. This has never been an Ukraine-Russia military operation but a Russia-NATO war in slowmotion, there’s no start and there will be never an end to it.
It's alive in NK . All you need is a leadership that don't want back in bed with the "partners" . I know , they really really tried to make peace feasable but after 300 years should be clear that the europeans will never stop trying to conquer Moscow in a way of another .
Torturing my brains for decades, who are the real Europeans? Why is it that they’re so nervous once you bring in the existence of Russians? It all collapses the Russophobia, the hate, the evil and like Iran their civilisation must be destroyed and send back to the Stone Age, and like Iran their natural resources must be confiscated or looted, the west all together isn’t that rich, jealousy is at the source of the wars against them.
well , you know , each time europeans tried to invade Russia ,Russians ended back in europe , including Paris . They just keep the second part as a fear generator and "to protect against" .
No European ever invaded Russia after the end of the Cold War, trying invading the Soviet Union during WWII is quite a difference. There has always been Russians in Europe and not always for political reasons or refugees, there’s now even a colony of American immigrants in Russia, you should inform yourself. Do you really think it’s only about fear and deterrence or is it more a tectonic shift from the unipolar western hegemony to a polycentric multipolar world, that the west is unable to give a place, or isn’t ready for…yet?
I think the 2014 events were a step too far , west playing bandera near Ru for something like 8 years . Offcourse the leadership of ru tried a very stupid plan A (regime change that blowed any chance of mainstream support for their side ) and is getting dangerously close on failing the B plan (atrition ) . Plan C would be radioactive - and in that plan they will lose less than the others both GDP and people . A bit like their famous Shkval torpedo - it guarantees that everybody dies . Moral of the story would be to not bring into a carmageddon a brand new fancy 100k dollar truck .
And in regards to your question - i guess US discovered it was badly overextended and is taking measures to rectify the situation , first by putting their vasals on the line ( EU countering Ru ) and fixing asap all that can be fixed (Venezuela , Cuba , Iran etc ) to prepare themselves for the future Asiatic crisis
Asiatic crisis? The cage is empty the bird left several years ago, you can only take it on a continental scale, not Asian but Eurasian even Middle East Eurasian or Egypt, Turkey, Pakistani, Iran, Saoudi Eurasian all dealing or making deals with US-Venezuela-Greenland-Cuba new multipolar partner(?).
Precipitous escalation is concerning but is also useful to continue to buttress the war industry, the primary economic program of the U.S. as well as many other countries. The economic ramifications are vast, it’s not necessary to go into detail. There will always be one crisis or another, it keeps us thriving, it’s an important element of the system.
America achieved deterrence by dropping atomic bombs on Japanese cities, murdering more than 540.000 innocent civilians. According to American academics that ended the war. So taking this historical fact into consideration it makes sense.
Just as Karaganov's views are of great concern to all, so are the US/EU attacks on Russia of great concern to ALL Russians I would suggest!
Does the US/EU suddenly try to grow some intelligent responsibility, albeit perhaps only approaching that of the Russian leadership, or does it continue on the same path?
Professor Mearsheimer, I've been drawing on your wisdom since the late 1980's and today listened to your views expressed in exchanges in the podcast with you and Professor Sergey Karaganov. Here I repeat the comment I posted on the substack of Professor Glenn Diesen.
"Thank you, Glenn, for the work you do in bringing us to an appreciation of your perspectives, and to those of invitees on your broadcasts. I have been interacting with the works of Professor John Mearsheimer since the late 1980s and more recently with those of Professor Sergey Karaganov. The interaction between the three of you is a vitally important and timely contribution of elucidation for elites globally, and most notably for those gathered in the European members of Nato.
"I’ll do what I can in bringing attention to your substack, and to your post of June 13, 2026, to other thinkers and to a general public which is fed a stream of propaganda by military-industrial-financial-media-politics complexes."
Here too is the relevant article of May 12, 2026 by Professor Karaganov: https://karaganov.ru/en/a-new-world-war-the-road-to-victory/
What this formidable guy said is truth and reasonable
It is interesting to hear Karaganov interpret Atlanticist normative political imposition of liberal democracy onto the world as consistent with the record of Western steamrolling of each other periodically and the rest of the world for centuries.
