Yanis Varoufakis is Naive on Ukraine

Summary:
In Russell Brand's interview, Yanis states that we must always support the defenders and the sovereignty of the invaded. I question who the aggressors are and if Ukraine is a pawn. Sovereignty and the right of secession are discussed, along with whether this is Russia's war or just Putin's, as Yanis claims. I examine the role of Russian oligarch money in the demise of Greece and Cyprus, and quote Yanis from my book, How to Dismantle an Empire. I end with the hope that we're not being played by all sides, comparing them to rats at a chickenfeeder.

An accidental economist Let me begin with a confession: I am a Professor of Economics who has never really trained as an economist. But let’s take things one at a time.
