One on One - Economist Jeffrey Sachs

[@mardenhundley3700]

Professor Sachs is a rare and exceptional human being that the world and in particular American leaders need to listen to. Professor Sachs summation and course of action is the only sane and sensible course. The Washington war mongers need to pull the heads in and do what is right for humanity. Not there war machines or misguided egos if they want humanity to survive.

Prof Jeffrey Sachs, Prof John J Mearsheimer and Prof Stephen Cohen are few in the western politic, even in academic still being rational when it comes to anything with Russian. We need more of them to make the world a safer place.

[@michaeligloo]

[@Time4Peace]

Mearsheimer's view is that US shouldn't be picking a fight with Russia but to focus on containing China's rise even if it risks WW3. His view is that US must remain the global hegemon at all cost. So I'm not sure how rational he is.

[@philipng476]

@@Time4Peace You read him right about China but I never find him support the notion of escalate conflict to possibly starting WW3. Mearsheimer simply suggest US should focus on China as soon as possible to gain the upper hand because he believes there will be limited but still dangerous confrontation between US and China as China continue to rise in power.

[@Time4Peace]

@@philipng476 Mearsheimer has a zero sum mentality - either China or US wins. He is an advocate of defending Taiwan militarily if necessary, a situation that will surely risk WW3.

[@vajmong]

I don’t think mr sachs fully understands the requirements and perks to become a member of NATO and how that attracts countries to join it. Countries decide to join. That’s the key terminology. It’s been proven that other countries don’t fear a NATO invasion. What they fear is a united defensive NATO collaboration against autocratic governments extending corruption unto neighboring NATO countries.

@@vajmong Oh yeah? How many excuses do you need to make a saint of a military machinery and a war monger eternally starting wars on fo reign territories??? Thank you Jeremy Sachs, for a fair and honest update of the very dark and dangerous spillout from the Ukraine tragedy. Leaders of the US, UK and Nato together with leaders of the countries in the Western Alliance never learnt from their past of bringing 2 world wars. Today we find that suddenly we, the hoi-polloi of Britain and Europe might be on the brink of extinction though the war mongering oligarchies and their govts have their 5 star bunkers to support them decades longer than US. All of us will immediately turn into plutonium dust... I m sure talks of this nature, given by well informed, non-partisan but honest and just individuals and groups must mushroom quickly so we can help bring a pause, cool down the heat and persuade the warring parties that our lives, the 90% of humanity, our sophisticated world and our planet earth is worth saving. I guesd it'll take millions more talks and strong actions before they 'll get war fatigued and pause to negotiate, if at all.

[@gjanho]

Prof Sachs is a visionary, I saw an interview of his about Syria and it was smart and true to the point, now he puts his finger on the wound again, I hope someone at the US administration would hear and react , but of course, they don't need someone to tells them they're wrong, they need blind followers.

[@lassel1344]

The problem in the United States is that there is no government that decides. Those who decide are the military-industrial complex. Now that the Afghanistan war is over, they must have a new war for their weapons. It is completely inconceivable that the United States in 2022 will not get better. Had Zelensky been able to implement the Minsk Agreement for the United States, which they approved in 2015, the war would never have started. But that is when big business money is more important than human life.I have listened to Jeffrey several times before because he seems sensible and I have many other Americans on my favorite list, but the power in Washington is regardless of government in the hands of the military-industrial complex that is now looking for replacements for Afghanistan and Iraq.

[@Ed-bq4rp]

Putin is massacring Ukrainians, but the US is to blame? In that case I know another one: how about Germany being responsible for Putin's war, by daily financing its war machine. Germany is after all the key importer of Russian fuels and has permanently closed its eyes with its 'Ost'politics

[@lassel1344]

@@Ed-bq4rpEd, I do not blame everything on the United States, but the United States held the gun while Russia pressed the trigger. From the beginning, both Germany and France wanted Ukraine to be neutral like several other countries in Europe. Why did Zelendsy not want to follow the Minsk Agreement that Ukraine approved in 2015? If he had done that, there would probably not have been a war. Zelndsky won the 2019 election, likely because he would negotiate and end the war in the Donbas. Why nothing has happened during these past years? Biden also did not want to call Putin's card, Biden could have promised that NATO in Ukraine will not happen, just to see Putin's reaction. All indications are that the war was planned and that the military-industrial complex was behind it. Nordsteam 2 would never be approved and then the EU would need to buy LNG and new weapons from the United States. The world does not need more weapons, it needs leaders who can compromise and agree as JFK and Khrushchev did in 1962. Cuba is still not part of any military alliance.

[@kort2436]

When a country’s poltical parties are so polarised as they have been in the last few year, a politician’s supposed objective to act in their constituents best interest goes out the window but rather to criticise on the other side even If what the otherside makes sense and said it first. Many government’s principal objective now to secure votes in elections and maintain control in legislature, and for the US, war makes people happy as they pretend to be saviours of the world as they don’t feel the pressure on themselves. It’s like lighting a fire and watching it burn and consume and kill whilst they enjoy the show.

Unfortunately the walk backs the USA and the EU have to make is far too humiliating for that to happen. Putin and Russia will not relinquish territories won and with the 30 year history of non-compliance to negotiated Russian-US/EU agreements, Russia is right to do so. The only expansionist parties today seen to be the USA and the EU. The NATO or proposed "global NATO" is nothing more than expansionism under another name. Russia and China are far too busy and prooccupied trying to lift the standards of living including the security of its people to think about expansionism. Their relative self-sufficiency indicated by their relative low external debt levels attests to that. They've little motivation to adopt expansionist agendas. Taiwan has been recognised as an unrelinquished rogue breakaway province of China since after WWII and the civil War that ensued. In fact for decades the Taiwan-based Chinese Nationalist Party laid claim to be the legitimate government of all of China! Taiwan reintegration into China is a non-negotiation issue.
