Funds for Ukraine: More Slaughter Without Victory? Conversations with Jack Rasmus and Peter Koenig

Funds for Ukraine: More Slaughter Without Victory? Conversations with Jack Rasmus and Peter Koenig

Author: Alternate Current Radio May 3, 2024 Duration: 59:02
This week, on the Global Research News Hour, as a new bill got through the US House of Representatives in April allocating $61 billion devoted supposedly to Ukraine, we inspect the fine details of this and another less explored bill on the dynamics of the bloody War in Ukraine and examine the consequences for the victory or finality of Ukraine. For most of the hour we speak with author, radio host and economics teacher Jack Rasmus about the expected result of the bills passing through Congress, and the comparative positions of Ukraine, Russia and NATO geostrategically. Then toward the end of our show we chat with geopolitical analyst Peter Koenig about the wider implications and about the “Wars for Peace” rule which continues to captivate people everywhere.

Tune in to Global Research News Hour, a weekly program from the team at Alternate Current Radio that brings the work of the Centre for Research on Globalization directly to your ears. Based in Montreal, the CRG operates as an independent, non-profit research and media organization, and this audio extension of their mission digs into the stories and analyses that often exist outside mainstream headlines. Each episode functions as a deep-dive conversation, drawing from the Centre's extensive network of researchers, authors, and activists involved in publishing, humanitarian projects, and public education. You'll hear detailed discussions on the pressing societal and cultural issues shaping our world, from geopolitics and economics to environmental crises and social movements. The tone is substantive and inquisitive, prioritizing context and evidence over sound bites. This isn't just a summary of the news; it's a critical examination of the forces behind it, offering listeners a more nuanced understanding of global events. Produced by Alternate Current Radio, this podcast serves as an essential audio companion for anyone looking to move beyond superficial reporting and engage with the complex realities of our interconnected world.
