In this podcast, I speak with Professor Jeffrey Sachs, one of the world’s most renowned economists and geopolitical analysts, about some of the most pressing international challenges of our time: the war in Ukraine, NATO enlargement, EU–Russia relations, the crisis in the Middle East, Europe’s economic future, energy security, diplomacy, and the growing question of Europe’s sovereignty in world affairs.

Professor Sachs offers a frank and uncompromising analysis of the geopolitical decisions that have shaped today’s conflicts — and of the profound consequences these policies may have for Europe and the wider world.

Whether one agrees or disagrees with his conclusions, this discussion raises fundamental questions about peace, truth, diplomacy, and the future direction of our continent.
