Description: In this Wolff Responds, Prof. Wolff reveals the truth behind the growing tensions between the US, Russia and Western Europe. This is yet another example of distraction politics. The Biden administration is seeking to deflect attention away from the domestic issues it is confronted with, while also attempting to squeeze Russians out of the European energy market and move Americans in. But is whatever is happening in the Ukraine worth a war between 2 nuclear powers like the US and Russia? This question, Wolff argues, begs an answer. Wolff Responds is a@Democracy At Work production.
