I spoke with Professor Jeffrey Sachs after his speech at the European Parliament. How did we end up in a position where the EU has become the leading actor to oppose diplomacy and negotiations, and instead aims to prolong a war that devastates Europe and cannot be won? How did the Europeans reach a consensus on absurd notions such as Russia should not have a say in where NATO expands, and that the Europeans cannot sit down and talk to Russia without Ukraine? Professor Sachs attended the Istanbul negotiations in early 2022, but why are these negotiations now largely absent in the EU’s war narrative?

Now Blumenthal and Sachs! You have been keeping yourself very busy, Prof. Diesen.
Thank you for your efforts.
Europe is behaving as if it is suffering from "battered wife syndrome." Those experiencing this syndrome often feel helpless, leading them to mistakenly believe that they deserve the abuse and that escaping it is impossible.
