Why did Jeffrey Sachs recently visit Viktor Orbán in Hungary? “I was invited to the National Bank of Hungary to give a talk, and I paid a courtesy call on the President,” he says, in a new interview with IChotiner.
, Jens Stoltenberg, who was one of the biggest hard-liners on this war, says this is the ninth year of the war. That is the fact. This war started in February, 2014. He says it started with Russia’s seizure of Crimea. I think you have to dial the clock back about a month, at least. It started with the overthrow of Viktor Yanukovych, in which the United States played a very active role.[They did not] quite shrug it off in Afghanistan.
Assad was an ally of Russia. We often say, ridiculously, in our media that Putin entered Syria, because people don’t understand that Obama tasked the C.I.A. with overthrowing Assad, and the U.S. blocked the peace attempts that were very close to coming to fruition in 2012 in Syria. I know this, also.
I don’t think it’s a fair critique at all, and I think maybe you’re missing my point completely, which is that I find it horrendous how many innocent people are dying and suffering. I worry about it every day. It’s a horrible thing. It weighs very heavily on me personally, but I believe that understanding these events so that the fighting can stop is of paramount importance.
that he’s put forward as one cause of the war, one of the driving forces of it for him, in his own words?with John Mearsheimer covers that well, so I’ll just leave it there. I think it’s accurately described there.That was not the cause of the war. This is not the motivation of the war, and you’re basically—I don’t like when he says these things, but I don’t think this is the point of what’s happening right now.
You’ve been a very eloquent critic of some of the worst aspects of American foreign policy. Let’s take the Iraq War as one example. You’ve described everything Russia has done during the past twelve yearsbombing civilians in Syria, bombing civilians in Ukraine, annexing Crimea, supporting separatists in eastern Ukraineas essentially forced on them. If people described the Iraq War that way, by removing responsibility from the United States, it would make me cringe.
