Jeffrey Sachs: Trump-Putin Meeting - Peace or Deception?

Glenn Diesen - Greater Eurasia Podcast

News Politics

Glenn Diesen - Greater Eurasia Podcast explores how Russian foreign policy, geoeconomics, and Eurasian integration are reshaping the world order. Hosted by Professor Glenn Diesen, this podcast offers in depth discussions on the shifting balance of power between East and West, the rise of Greater Eurasia as a strategic and economic space, and the ideas driving these transformations. Listeners can expect thoughtful analysis, accessible explanations of complex geopolitical trends, and conversations that connect current events to long term structural changes in international politics. Whether you follow news and politics closely or are just beginning to explore global affairs, you can listen episodes to gain a clearer understanding of why Eurasia matters and how it influences security, trade, and diplomacy. This podcast is for anyone seeking serious, informed perspectives beyond the usual headlines.

Professor Jeffrey Sachs discusses the surprise meeting between Trump and Putin. Is this political theatrics, an effort to fundamentally transform US-Russia relations, or merely deception? If Trump's language shifts from "unconditional ceasefire" to ending NATO expansionism, there could be reason to be very optimistic. However, Trump has also become known for his deception and weakness in terms of standing up against the hawkish political establishment.
