4/7/22 Dave DeCamp on Russia’s Pivot East and the Overt Western Information War
Dave DeCamp returned for another Antiwar Radio last Sunday to update us on the Russian war in Ukraine. DeCamp and Scott talk about the apparent Russian strategy of using operations in the North to draw Ukrainian forces away from the East. They discuss whether these claims appear accurate or if, as western media would have us believe, this is really the Russian excuse for suffering major military defeats at the hands of Ukrainian forces. They next discuss some revelations that came out last week about NATO leaders openly prioritizing vague power games over Ukrainian lives and about how the Biden Administration has admitted to releasing “low-confidence” intelligence in its information war efforts against the Kremlin. Lastly, they discuss Zelensky’s comments about the Azov Batallion on FOX, which the network later tried to hide.
Discussed on the show:
- “NATO says Ukraine to decide on peace deal with Russia — within limits” (Washington Post)
- “In a break with the past, U.S. is using intel to fight an info war with Russia, even when the intel isn’t rock solid” (NBC News)
- Bret Baier asks Zelenskyy about Azov Batallion
