Summary
Dr. Paul Craig Roberts discusses US-Russia tensions and corona tyranny. He doesn’t see how events in Kazakhstan could’ve been anything else but an attempted color revolution. While prior U.S. administrations in the 20th century worked to defuse tensions with Russia, Washington today is removing safeguards, not taking security talks seriously, and is expanding NATO and military installations. Russians feel they are threatened and are taking actions to ensure their security. These developments are extremely discouraging. At the start of the pandemic, he had no reason to question the CDC and NIH. However, over time he began to see holes in the narrative. He fears many people will be injured as a result of mass experimental vaccination and we may see social collapse. He believes there must be some sort of conspiracy and can’t fathom the level of global coordination going on. The lockdowns have created inflation which has created serious problems for the U.S. dollar. We don’t know what else they may release. There’s a tremendous amount of evil at play. If things don’t clear up this year, it may very well be the end of the world.

| 0:00.0 | Geopolitics and Empire Podcast is joined once again by Dr. Paul Craig Roberts. |
| 0:04.8 | I think this may be his fifth appearance on the podcast. |
| 0:07.9 | A majority of listeners will likely know who he is, but for those who don't, |
| 0:12.2 | he's the former assistant secretary of the treasury under Ronald Reagan, |

| 0:41.3 | All right. |
| 0:42.8 | So I subscribe to your email list, which I enjoy very much. |
| 0:47.1 | It seems the two key themes that you bang on about these days are US, Russia, World War III, |
| 0:52.7 | and the Corona dictatorship. For me personally, |
| 0:55.9 | these also are some of the key issues today I'm most concerned about. And of course, if there are |
| 1:01.0 | other issues on your mind, do let us know. But I thought perhaps we could start with the foreign |
| 1:05.6 | policy. Four years ago, we did an interview where you concluded that Washington was ready to nuke China and Russia. |
| 1:12.5 | In fact, just yesterday, Ron Paul writes that Washington's Russia bashers are determined to start a war. |
| 1:18.4 | You write that for yourself, as an experienced cold warrior, you are freaking out. |
