3/24/22 Dave Decamp on Russia’s War in Ukraine and Washington’s Reaction

Download Episode.

Dave DeCamp joined Scott on Antiwar Radio yesterday to discuss the Russian war in Ukraine. DeCamp gives a brief rundown of the Russian campaign so far and details where the bulk of the fighting is happening now, as the war enters its second month. Scott and DeCamp then dissect the reaction in Washington, where the Biden Administration is clearly prioritizing the arming of an insurgency over any sort of negotiations. But despite Biden’s foot-dragging, talks between Russia and Ukraine have been taking place. DeCamp fills us in on Russia’s demands and how Ukraine is reacting.

Vlahos discusses the waning popularity of COIN strategy even among its strongest former proponents, the return of heavy air strikes and conventional warfare tactics in Afghanistan, the limited effectiveness of backroom negotiations with the Taliban due to missing key players, the increasingly difficult search for a face-saving exit strategy from Afghanistan and the liberal interventionist Democrats who dream of exporting freedom and democracy via military might across the world.
