‘We are a defeated continent. The US won the war and we have to follow’ – Former Spanish senior diplomat

In this episode of RT’s Sanchez Effect, Rick studies the chaos in Minneapolis brought on by the radical and deadly actions of ICE. against civilians. Next, Sanchez discusses the tensions across Iran and the EU’s weak response to global events with a former Spanish ambassador, Jose Antonio Zorrilla. The ex-senior diplomat says that leadership both in the EU and NATO is incompetent, choosing to ignore how the US displays cruelty towards its allies, all while hoping they won’t become its next victims. Now that Trump’s designs on Greenland have been announced, they now realize they’re also on the menu. Antonio Zorrilla also describes how US narratives do not face push back in the EU - even among skeptics - as they fear losing their political careers. You can catch all this on RT International.

‘We are a defeated continent. The US won the war and we have to follow’ – Former Spanish senior diplomat
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.”
