Russian President Putin calling for De-Nazification of Ukraine?, Zaporizhzhia Ukraine Nuclear Power Plant, Ukraine is asking for a 'no fly zone' in Ukraine supervised by NATO, What is position of India in the current conflict in Ukraine?
Retired US Diplomat to 5 different nations David Hunter shares his knowledge, passion, interest, and experience.
1) Russian President Putin calling for De-Nazification of Ukraine?: He accuses the leadership of Ukraine ,--- including Pres. Zelensky who is Jewish,----of being neo-Nazi supporters. He uses this argument and also claims the neo-Nazis have committed genocide on Russian speakers in Ukraine. Is there any validity to Putin's claims? If not, why is he doing it?
2) Zaporizhzhia Ukraine Nuclear Power Plant: The Russian military bombed and set fire to the largest nuclear power plant in all Europe on March 4, 2022. Fortunately, it has not yet leaked radiation. But Russian troops are now holding the Ukrainian power plant crew at gunpoint. How high are the risks of a nuclear accident? What would be the consequences?
3) Ukraine is asking for a 'no fly zone' in Ukraine supervised by NATO. So far NATO refuses, saying it is too risky. What does that mean? Why can Russian jets fly inside Ukraine's airspace, but not US or NATO?
4) What is position of India in the current conflict in Ukraine? Both countries have long historical military ties since the 1950s, and India flies SU-30 and MIG fighter planes. Is India going soft on current Russian aggression?
