The west had long ignored warnings from Eastern European states about the continued threat posed by Russia. Now, that threat is impossible to ignore. David Rothkopf spoke with former President of Estonia Toomas Hendrik Ilves about the war in Ukraine, the Putin regime's anti-western bias, and the view from Eastern Europe. Is Russia's revanchism and foreign policy adventurism inherent to Russia or a result of its leaders? How concerned are the baltic states about the Russian threat now? What are the chances that Ukraine joins the EU and NATO? Find out the answer to these and other questions in this fascinating conversation. Join us.
