The Unfettered Speech PodcastEP:4 - [GUEST] Alexander Mercouris - Free Speech Under Siege : How Europe Lost Its Voice.Free speech stands as the indispensable cornerstone of democracy, yet across Europe, this fundamental right faces unprecedented challenges. British political analyst Alexander Mercouris joins us to unravel the alarming patterns of censorship and democratic backsliding sweeping the continent.Drawing from his extensive experience as co-host of The Duran, Mercouris takes us behind the headlines to expose troubling developments – from British authorities detaining critics and confiscating their electronic devices to the shocking cancellation of election results in Romania when anti-NATO candidates gained traction. These aren't isolated incidents but part of a coordinated effort to control na...

Daniel Davis Deep DiveU.S. Halts Weapons for Ukraine /Lt Col Daniel Davis & Alexander MercourisThe U.S. has abruptly halted deliveries of many key weapons and ammunition categories to Ukraine—a shift that surprised both Ukraine and many within the U.S. government. While past administrations, particularly under Biden, promised ongoing military aid “for as long as it takes,” the new Trump administration has now reversed course. Although Trump had previously hinted at ending the war, he had not formally restricted aid until now.The Ukrainian government reportedly received no warning and is scrambling to understand the implications, while Russia is likely encouraged by the development.

Russia has legitimate security concerns from Russia, although the efforts by the US and its allies to use Georgia as a proxy are also a security concern. How can Georgia navigate the complex geopolitics that also divide its society?Follow Prof. Glenn Diesen:Substack: https://glenndiesen.substack.com/X/Twitter: https://x.com/Glenn_DiesenPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/glenndiesenSupport the channel:PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/glenndiesenBuy me a Coffee: buymeacoffee...

Mearsheimer and Alexander Mercouris about the stalling of peace negotiations as the US faces resistance from the Europeans and Zelensky. The US will likely increase pressure on Zelensky, and the Europeans can be divided and played against each other. However, the subsequent uncertainty signals to the Russians that any future deal could fall apart quickly. Therefore, Russia have great incentives to seize more territory to ensure Eastern Ukraine cannot be used as a frontline against Russia in the future. The peace talks will likely slow down over the...

The US is repositioning itself as the unipolar world order has ended, and multipolarity is already here. The Europeans have no strategy and the policies subsequent lack direction and reason. In Isreal, society has polarised to the extent that political and societal instability will become a challenge to national security.

The clash in the Oval Office occurred as Trump and Vance were determined to start negotiations, while Zelensky was seen to be extremely dismissive. The Europeans do not have any alternatives to Trump’s peace plan, only an effort to do more of the same and escalate as the war is lost. The Europeans have been captured by narratives, making accepting reality nearly impossible.

Wong is the Chairman and Director of ACN Worldwide & President of the Shanghai Centre for RimPac Strategic and International Studies. The purpose of the discussion was to address some common misunderstandings about China, and how China differs from other great powers. The failure of America’s economic coercion and efforts to break China's technological development should have been predictable if there had been a proper understanding of China. Furthermore, if there had been a greater appreciation for the depth of the Ch...

Trump will seek to shift focus away from an increasingly irrelevant Europe and America’s perpetual wars in the Middle East, as the main challenge to US dominance comes from China. However, Biden has escalated the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East to such an extent that there are options left for Trump.

I had a conversation with Alexander Mercouris and Ambassador Chas Freeman, a former Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs. Besides being a former ambassador to Saudi Arabia, Freeman’s career included opening China with Henry Kissinger and Richard Nixon in the 1970s and developing the post-Cold War security architecture in Europe.

I had a conversation with Professor Jeffrey Sachs and Alexander Mercouris about the possibility of Trump delivering peace in the Middle East and Ukraine. Trump recently posted a video of Professor Sachs criticising the presentation of international conflicts as a struggle between democracy and authoritarianism. In the video, Professor Sachs also scolded Netanyahu and blamed Israel for America’s wars in the Middle East over the past 30 years (Netanyahu will reportedly not attend Trump’s inauguration). Trump has also recognised that NATO expansionism was the source of the proxy war in Ukraine, and has been vocal about his...

Nekrasov is known for making documentaries that are very critical of the Kremlin, and he received funding in the West to make a documentary about the death of Sergey Magnitsky. The story about a ruthless Russian government that killed a whistle-blower was a perfect story for a Western audience that is consistently fed stories about international politics as a struggle between good and evil. The narrative of Magnitsky also laid the foundation for the Magnitsky Act...

There is a fascinating parallel between the political fortunes of Boris Johnson in the U.K. and Donald Trump in the U.S. Both have the extraordinary opportunity to crush their 'liberal' opposition who have far over-reached in their attempts to undermine the governments and societies of the U.S. and U.K.This over-reach is having spill over...

This is can't miss analysis from one of the real giants in geopolitics.
