In this episode of Real Talks on the Rocks, I sit down with Stephen Zunes, who is a professor of International Politics at the University of San Francisco. Topics that we discuss include the current war in Ukraine between Ukraine and Russia, the real motivations behind NATO and how NATO had re-established itself in the region and how the little-known annexation of Western Sahara by the country of Morocco had set the standard for how Russia is treating Ukraine. We also discuss the Israel/Palestine issues as they stand today and how both Israel and China are looking at what is happening in Ukraine to dictate how they proceed with their own agendas back home.
