In today’s Dialogue Works podcast, Nima Alkhoshid steals a march on Tuesday’s talks between the Russian and American teams preparing for the summit meeting to follow between President Vladimir Putin and President Donald Trump.
We look at the US team – the megalomaniac, the Confederates, the Family, and the moneymen – and at the Russian team (Foreign Minister Lavrov, Kremlin foreign policy advisor Ushakov, Russian Direct Investment Fund CEO Dmitriev) and discuss what temporary terms are possible for outcome; what permanent peace for the Ukraine, China, Iran, and Palestine is probable, if any.
The Maryland State Board of Censors and the British Board of Film Classification warn this podcast is not for the vainly optimistic, falsely conscious, premature triumphalists, paid propagandists. This is the school of grim realism, not the Professor Mushheimer school of realism nor the Doctor Zero theatre of Russian PR.
