Description: In this Wolff Responds, Prof. Wolff looks at Russia’s invasion of Ukraine from an economic and historical perspective by focusing in on how nations have often stoked fear of threats to national security to justify illegal international intervention and how sanctions have never been successful. Wolff goes on to reveal that way in which these sanctions will only come back to hurt the US economy. Wolff Responds is a@Democracy At Work production. We provide these videos free of ads.
