EU: hyper-hypocritical toward Qatar and barking again at Russia

“On the Barricades” s06e02

This is the second installment of this week’s release of “On the Barricades”. Hosts Maria Cernat and Boyan Stanislavski are continuing from the last segment to discuss Ukraine, this time dissecting the aims of the ludicrous pronouncements of EU President Ursula von der Leyen in a recent speech. That is, that justice will be served against Russia by forming a special UN court and somehow seizing control of the assets of Putin’s opponent oligarchs which are in the West, i.e. legalized international theft.

The hosts discuss EU hypocrisy at the FIFA World Cup: the German team’s ‘One Love’ protest against the Qatari government’s repression of LGTBQ, while at the same time German business signs a huge gas deal with Qatar.
