This week on the global Research News Hour we take a look at what this war with Ukraine will look like in a few weeks time and of the ramifications for the world beyond as the various trade sanctions take their toll. In our first half hour, Marine Corps intelligence officer Scott Ritter weighs in with his beliefs that in spite of appearances, Russia is doing brilliantly and will be finished soon. He will also offer thoughts about the role of President Zelensky and about the impact of the sanctions. In our second half hour we will talk about the acceleration of Americaâs decline brought about by the war and the demise of the us dollar on the world scene with the great economic thinker Michael Hudson.
