https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlUSqQ8U8T8 Transcript BENJAMIN NORTON: Hey, everyone. I’m Ben Norton, and this is the Multipolarista podcast. And I have the great pleasure of being joined today by one of my favorite guests, one of I think the most important economists in the world today. I’m speaking with Professor Michael Hudson. If you’ve seen any of the interviews I’ve done with Professor Hudson over the past few years, you probably know that he’s a brilliant analyst. He always has, I think, the best analysis to understand what’s going on economically and also politically, geopolitically, in the world today.

We’re going to talk about the economic war on Russia and the process of economic decoupling between Russia and China and the ...

Katie Halper podcast, April 29, 2022 TRANSCRIPT KATIE HALPER: Professor Michael Hudson, thank you so much for joining us. We're really excited to have you. We wanted to start off by asking you if you could provide an overview of what the economics driving this conflict are—and by conflict, I mean the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and, of course, with the rest of the world, or really the conflict between Russia and US, and the economic fallout. MICHAEL HUDSON: Well, it depends on what side you’re looking at. From the Russian side, I don't think the economic factors were primary. They were threatened by NATO's expansion and really a plan to attack the Russian-speaking areas of Ukraine. So, I think Russia's calculations were simply military. ...

Accidental Crisis?

By Tuesday, March 29, 2022 Interviews Permalink

NATO-Russia Proxy War: Revealing Signs of a Fading America: Scott Ritter, Michael Hudson - Global Research - Centre for Research on Globalization. GR (Michael Welch): Great privilege to speak with you again Mr. Hudson. Welcome! Michael Hudson: Thanks for having me on! GR: Now, We're seeing NATO unifying together behind the US call to sanction Russia, including removal from the SWIFT system. They're being hit with sanctions to hurt, sanctions from hell as President Biden would say, and it doesn't look as if it's working. But the sanctions are boomeranging, and hitting the EU and the US pretty hard with soaring rates for food, fertilizer, oil and gas. They seem to provoke Russian aggression. He's kind of compelled them to do that. We know it wasn't the response, I mean it’s something they ...
