‘Russia will not accept it. They have to re-write 80% of the deal to make it work’ – Pepe Escobar

In this episode of RT’s Sanchez Effect, Rick is joined by an independent geopolitical analyst, author and correspondent with 40 years of experience – Pepe Escobar, to discuss the peace deal proposed by Donald Trump. Despite the proposal being portrayed by the West as ‘pro-Russian’, Pepe trashed it point by point, saying the whole proposal is unacceptable to Moscow. Like for example, Russia rejoining the G8! Russia doesn’t care about the G8, Pepe argues, as it has BRICS, that now works to bypass all Western financial mechanisms. Escobar believes the Kremlin can no longer make any concessions, knowing that the US and the West can’t be trusted. Rick and Pepe also discussed the corruption scandal in Ukraine, along with the role of Brussels and Washington in it. The veteran correspondent has no doubt that EU elites have also been getting their hands on some of the money they have been sending to the Kiev regime. For more – go to RT International.

‘Russia will not accept it. They have to re-write 80% of the deal to make it work’ – Pepe Escobar
Sanchez Effect is a journalistic rebellion. RT’s flagship program is led by Rick Sanchez, the Emmy and Peabody Award-winning newsman who’s made a career out of defying the status quo. “When only one side of a story is permitted, that’s when I push harder. If Moscow is deemed off-limits, it’s precisely where I want to be. Because more often than not, truth resides in the places we’re told not to look.”
