John Bolton: Russian invasion of Ukraine a war of imperial conquest by a Tsarist Putin (E1116)

On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to the former US ambassador to the UN and national security adviser to Donald Trump (2018-2019), John Bolton. He discusses Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, arguing that the US and EU need to further sanction Moscow to cripple its oil and gas industry, and that Biden has done ‘too little too late’ to deter Vladimir Putin and arm the Ukrainian military. He also predicts whether Putin will seek to occupy all of Ukraine, and discusses rising tensions with China over the growing anticipation that it will seek to reunify with Taiwan by unleashing a military assault.
