The PoliticsGirl PodcastAre the Bad Guys Winning? A Conversation with Michael McFaulFormer Ambassador to Russia and author of the new book Autocrats vs. Democrats Michael McFaul reminds us that the autocratic world is united while the democratic world is not, and quite frankly, we have to get it together. We’re not allowed to just ignore what’s happening, or simply give up because it’s too hard. If we do that, the consequences will be even worse. We must find our allies, both at home and abroad, and work with them to defeat that which would defeat us. Fantastic insight in this episode.

“Суть событий”: дополнительное время47. Пропаганда заговорила о ядерной войне. 29.04.2022Обсуждаем события военного времени: зачем холуи из путинской пропаганды вдруг заговорили о ядерной войне? Вполне вероятно, что они получили задание постепенно приучить население России к мысли, что ядерная катастрофа возможна, и обезумевший фараон вправе ее организовать.
Война выплескивается за пределы Украины: теперь агрессия направлена и против Молдовы. предположения о том, что российский диктатор задумал войну против всей Европы, становятся реальностью.
Европейские державы объединяют усилия для поддержки Украины оружием. в Соединенных Штатах конгресс принял закон о “ленд-лизе” и предоставил президенту право использовать конфискованные у России и ее олигархов капиталы для увеличения поддержки Украины.
Россия открывает второй - газовый - фронт войны. Первые удары на этом фронте направлены против Польши и Болгарии. на очереди Австрия и Германия. Каковы перспективы судебных процессов против “Газпрома”, произвольно нарушившего контракт о газовых поставках?
Рабочая группа всемирно известных экономистов разоблачает мифы о неэффективности санкций против российской диктатуры. вот здесь можно видеть материалы этой рабочей группы и доклад о развитии санкций, который она опубликовала неделю назад: https://fsi.stanford.edu/working-group-sanctions

World ClassA Witch's Brew of Cybersecurity Threats on "World Class with Michael McFaul""It feels like cyber is everywhere and yet at the same time insignificant," says Amy Zegart, co-director of FSI's Center for International Security and Cooperation.
As cyber talk turns from how technology makes life easier to how it will doom us all, understanding its many perils becomes increasingly difficult. In her discussion with FSI Director Michael McFaul, Amy Zegart breaks down the threats into four easily digestible categories: spying, stealing, disrupting and destroying.
