‘Trump wants to re-establish economic ties with Moscow. Period. So no dissonance in these talks’ – Lawrence Wilkerson

Witkoff is in Moscow, leaving Europe in a state of disbelief as it finds itself sidelined from a historic thaw between Washington and Moscow.

In our latest episode, we’re diving into the historic shift brewing behind the Kremlin walls –could peace be on the horizon? Rick and Lawrence Wilkerson, former chief of staff to US Secretary of State Colin Powell, discuss why European leaders are clinging to the war path: they find a straightforward answer – greed. Wilkerson points out that EU politicians are on borrowed time if they don’t wake up and represent the will of the people.

Wilkerson also highlights Trump’s unpredictability – an unsettling trait for the European leaders witnessing US influence wane, dragging Brussels down with it. Stay tuned for all the latest on the evolving peace talks – only on RT!
