Listen "Ep 18: Ukraine - Another Frontline (w/ Slava)"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of STXY, I sit down with Slava, a member of the American Communist Party who was born and raised in Ukraine, to discuss Ukraine’s place in the ongoing struggle between Western hegemony and multipolar resistance. We examine the historical and political forces that turned Ukraine into a battleground between Russia and NATO, as well as the evolution of its national consciousness.
To what extent is Ukraine a sovereign actor versus a pawn in a larger geopolitical game? And how does its situation compare to the complex situation between China's Taiwan and mainland? What lessons can the people on Taiwan learn from the cautionary tale of Ukraine?
Join us as we cut through the propaganda and analyze Ukraine’s role in the shifting global order.
