West and Russia in a hybrid war, heading for direct collision (Fyodor Lukyanov)

On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Fyodor Lukyanov, editor-in-chief of Russia in Global Affairs, chairman of the Presidium of the Russian Council of Foreign and Defence Policy, and research director at the Valdai Discussion Club. He discusses why currently there is no prospect for direct or indirect negotiations between Russia, Ukraine and NATO nations, the rising distrust against mainstream media in the US and Europe, the destruction of the Kakhovka dam, the emergence of a multipolar world and Russia’s lack of ruling ideology, Russian President Vladimir Putin’s evolution from a pro-Western leader to a leader now opposing US hegemony, reports of the imminent demise of Russia in NATO nation media, and much more.
