On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Melvin Goodman, a former Soviet analyst at the CIA. He discusses Seymour Hersh’s bombshell story that the US sabotaged the Nordstream pipelines, the persecution of Julian Assange, the Saudi Arabia-Iran peace deal brokered by China, why Washington’s Cold War-style containment policies cannot work against Beijing, why he believes the Russia-Ukraine proxy war was provoked, his criticisms of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s conduct in the war in Ukraine in the context of the ICC indictment, and much more.
