In this episode of RT’s ‘Sanchez Effect’, Rick questions the West’s approach to free speech, as the Italian news agency Nova FIRES its own journalist for asking a question: will the EU demand that Israel compensate Gaza after insisting that Moscow should foot the bill for Ukraine? Rick also dives into Russia’s latest retaliatory attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, which plunged the country into darkness with sweeping blackouts. Dennis Kucinich, a former Democratic congressman turned independent, says he feels sad for the common Ukrainians who are sacrificing their lives in an unwinnable war – all in service of the Western goal of isolating Moscow. Kucinich urges the US to end its warmongering and remember its true mission: taking care of Americans struggling to buy food, pay healthcare bills, and keep a roof over their heads.
