What is Putin’s Endgame? Garry Kasparov on Russia’s Attack on Ukraine Please listen to this interview - especially after the 13 minute mark when he talks about the End Game & why the world has crossed a line that it did not in 1962 [the Cuban Missile Crisis]!!! treefrog3349 2 days ago One of the "elephants in the room" is that for several decades many international oligarchs have made huge profits by ignoring or capitalizing on Russia's internal corruption. Putin could operate with impunity as long as the cash was flowing. Our current international moral outrage seems somewhat hypocritical and duplicitous in that light. The common people of the planet have every right to me incensed. The oligarchs and national governments have been playing a high-stakes poker game with the well-being of millions of peoples lives. And now we ALL stand a chance at losing. Erixa Riddell 1 day ago (edited) Best interview on world crisis facing the free world. Garry Kasparov is so right. The world is at a cross road and has left democracy to fight for its survival. capohd28 11 hours ago Huge respect for Garry. As insightful about the world as he was about chess. Gina Finch 10 hours ago This man needs to be employed as a war strategist, he has a very powerful mind to predict the opponents moves. This is a talent he was born with. Daniel Global 23 hours ago This is moving to see a great intellectual like this famous chess player not become cynical over time and lose his humanity, but still have humanitarian sensibility. MusicaAngela 17 hours ago “Dictators don’t ask why, they ask why not?” - so true! Mike Dixon 2 days ago My god why are our leaders not listening to this man. He's completely spot-on. Lisa Talev 1 day ago Excellent discussion! We need him to go in all the cable news channels too, enlighten the more average American viewers. KAsh Sres 1 day ago Garry Kasparov is an intelligent man. His analysis is so spot on. West should go and stop this war ASAP and save lives and show that midget monster that there are consequences to his actions. It’s illegal to attack a sovereign nation. He cannot get away anymore. If we don’t respond now, China will also invade Taiwan after this. Living in active war zone is pretty much like living in hell and Ukrainians are going thru that. Let’s help a country defend their freedom like we have done in the past.
