PROFESSOR JOHN MEARSHEIMER: THE CRISIS IN UKRAINE

For Putin having Ukraine part of NATO is as dangerous as it was for the US to have Russian missiles in Cuba. It's something he is not willing to risk. So almost any price is worth it for him. I've found the first 25mins of this conference by professor John Mearshimer [VIDEO]

I’m not sure what you want explained, but you’ll probably find it in this very straightforward talk by John Mearsheimer on this very conflict. [VIDEO]

If I understand it correctly this is as well the position of Professor John Mearsheimer [1] - he thinks that what Russia is going to do is "wreck" Ukraine and make it a buffer nation. I am sad, that we came to this situation and that our politicians were not able to find a diplomatic way to deal with each other and instead now only sanctions, arms and isolation seems to be considered. Trust is broken, both sides West and Russia consider themselves to be in the right and being handled unfairly by the others. Nationalism is rising and people start to consider each other as enemies. I am afraid that history is repeating itself and I am afraid of whatever leader Russia might get after Putin. [1]: [VIDEO]

True. Many intl relations professors have deeply nuanced and interesting perspectives from msm. Chomsky has a lot to say too: [LINK] Princeton: [LINK] UChicago: [VIDEO]

Here he is in February 2022 again saying they won't invade: [VIDEO] At a certain point it sure looks like Russian apologism.
