Matthew Hoh: ‘Donbass will be the new Jerusalem for NATO.’
In this episode of RT’s ‘Sanchez Effect,’ Rick discusses recent major conflicts with former US Marine Corps officer and State Department official Matthew Hoh, who took part in American operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Our guest told us that Iran is winning the current war, and that is why it is insisting on achieving a ceasefire in Lebanon, but Matthew also believes Israel will do whatever it takes to undermine the peace process, following widespread radicalization among its citizens. As for the Ukraine conflict, Mr. Hoh does not think Russia will escalate and strike the EU even despite the latter’s provocations. He thinks it is Brussels and not Moscow that wants another big war on the continent. That is because EU elites need an external threat to build up their support.
