Dear CCI Friends and Colleagues,
The Duran team of Alex Christoforou and Alexander Mercouris recently interviewed Professor Jeffrey Sachs for his views on the Vilnius NATO summit plus the history of US/Russia relations that brought us to where we are today – teetering on the brink of nuclear war. As always, Professor Sachs pulls no punches in his assessments. In the attached video he is clear on who he feels is to blame for deliberately, callously choosing war over peace.
Self-styled internet “fact checkers” call The Duran a right-wing, conspiracy pushing site that should be avoided; The Duran insists it is “… not right, left or center [but]…a media site that focuses on a pragmatic analysis of stories in the news.” What do you think? Is Professor Sachs pushing a right-wing agenda or is he a pragmatic analyst?
The video is an hour long, but the Sachs interview concludes by the 31 minute mark with the remainder being a discussion of audience comments. Enjoy, and let us know your views.

Also, for your consideration – a short video from a new voice, Isabella Weber, Assistant Professor of Economics at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. She has an interesting take on parallel economic history in support of Prof. Sachs’ position:
