Complicated conversation
Due to the language barrier and challenges of using a translator, the first recording was subpar. Furthermore, he spoke to me from a warzone with damaged internet connectivity.
I asked Vasily if we could do it again a few months later, this time with just translated text prompts from me and a better location for him.
The United States and its European allies share most of the responsibility for the crisis. The taproot of the trouble is NATO expansion and the West’s disregard for Russian national security interests.
