'The
greatest danger is that the war will go on for months if not years, and
that either NATO will get directly involved in the fighting or nuclear
weapons will be used — or both.'
By Tyler Durden: A new talk by Professor John J. Mearsheimer has recently been made public, wherein the famous author and political science theorist details the causes and consequences of the Ukraine war. Mearsheimer became more well-known, and "controversial" in establishment circles, after it emerged that he clearly predicted going back to 2014 the war which kicked off in Feb. 2022.
He had said in a 2014 University of Chicago lecture, "The West is leading Ukraine down the primrose path and the end result is Ukraine is going to get wrecked." This tragedy for the Ukrainian people is playing out now, with little hope that now totally defunct Russia-Ukraine ceasefire talks will halt the fighting. Other than efforts of France's Macron, attempts at basic diplomacy and direct communications are all but dead.
