Jeff Sachs is the only one worth listening to in this whole panel

Jeff is the professor who actually understands history, being honest and give wise advice. Politicians in the world should listen more to these wise people. It is so scary that Ban was served as the secretary -general of the United Nations. Now I understand why the world mess could get to this level. We should really carefully select country leaders and currently we have so many awful ones.

I applaud Jeff Sachs for speaking the painful truth. He is putting his career and reputation on the line by angering the powers that be. He is on the right side of history, and I profoundly thank him for his courage and principles.

Due to the Eisenhower Doctrine: it started when UK ( PM Anthony Eden) ; France and Israel invaded Egypt without the knowledge of US in 1954. But Eisenhower blocked the IMF loan to UK ( suffering from the depreciation of the pound and loss of reserves). So UK had to withdraw its troops; and so did France. Both countries humiliated: CDGaulle built France's nuclear capability ; then withdrew from NATO ; de Gaulle was also the first country to call in the dollars for gold under the Bretton Woods in 1957 which eventually led to the demise of the gold-exchange standard.

Thank you Professor for your truth!

What a waste of time with Ban ki moon , how was he ever the head of the UN

So many missing pieces of the current crisis have been missing all along, it's unfortunate that Jeffrey Sachs seems to among the few that speak with some degree of honesty. His contriubtion to the discussion is warmly welcomed. Ban Ki Moon is definitely no Dag Hammarksjold at this critical juncture in the life of the UN.

Jeffery Sachs is the adult in the room

Excellent Professor Jeff

In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act,”

Jeff must have difficulty suffering these people, I suspect that when he has private conversations with them they say of course you're right but I don't want my milk poisoned.

Wreckless talk will lead to our mutual distraction. Sachs must be heard and his Diplomatic prowess should be utilized in the process. Diplomacy is the only answer! “We are all mortal.” - JFK

Even after working for UN all those year Ban still can't stand up for the truth. It's baffling.

Will NATO hold their scheduled nuclear strike drills in Poland during these incredibly dangerous and tense time? If so, that is an incredibly dangerous action that is needlessly provocative and risks world destruction if there is any misunderstanding or accident.

Why are all comments in praise of Prof. Sachs ? The answer is, He is simply great ! He dwarfs those around him.

Jeffrey Sachs, amazing as usual. Should have been monologue, as the rest especially moderator is awful.

Yeah. Ban Ki Moon gives me a loooot of confidence in the UN leadership. No wonder why the UN is highly effective

Tack Jeffrey Sachs från hela mitt hjärta

Good on you Sachs. At least one in the world in this situation stand by the Truth.

Thank you for addressing this critical issue.

Professor was asking for dialog and compromise when countries dealing with nuclear war. Mr. Pon was like, we need US’s leadership, EU need to stand strong with US. He didn’t realize that is why we are facing a potential nuclear war here!

If EU really wants that they should have let or even invited Russia to join EU. Then EU can says that they have their "own" source of energy. 2. GET RID OF NATO. The conflicts there are ALL Nato instigated and initiated. 3. Get some balls and spine transplanted and crawl away from UAss. 4 . recognize that the world is NOT western European or anglo saxon

I come here only for Jeff

Never did I imagine that it has to take over 41 richest and powerful countries to be a military alliance, just because they fear only 1 single country (Russia). This shows how strong Russia's leadership and professionalism of Russian soldiers are.

Jeffrey told the truth. What a honest person!

The level of NATO and US nuclear readiness came to a head when the 'headless chooks' in Ukraine fired a missile that landed in Poland. Reckless Zelensky tried hard to involve US and NATO to start a nuclear war. What was not surprising was to see NATO and US literally wetting their pants to show that the missile was not from Russia, because it would have exposed them to the world as real 'paper tigers' - unable to launch a nuclear attack knowing very well what will happen to Europe in such a situation. People in Europe enjoy a very high standard of living and it will be downright foolish to compromise their lives in a war US is trying to fight against Russia to the last Ukranian! Europe includes Russia. They should unite against the Aliens from the Western Hemisphere! This is why President Putin has always been talking about a new European Security Framework replacing the almost defunct NATO - a mechanism which is just a mechanism which keeps the bureaucrats such as Jens Stoltenburg and others of their ilk in office and the American - Military Industrial - Congressional Complex alive!

European is hopeless....

Korea War, Cuba Crisis, Vietnam War and even nowadays Ukraine War are all the fightings for the “comfort zone” outside the country’s borders. In order to make such “comfort zone”, 1950 Chinese army stepped into the Korea War, 1962 America warned Soviet Union because of Cuba missile issue and 1970s Chinese army secretly joined in the Vietnam War and expelled strong American army away from Vietnam. 1. Before Korea War, no one from the west ever thought the poor “dictatorship” Chinese army with their stone-aged equipments could really dare to step into the Korea War and push armed to teeth American army from Chinese border back to Korean 38 degrees north latitude line, above which has been keeping as Chinese “comfort zone”, nowadays North Korea. 2. No surprise when Kennedy announced the ultimatum of nuclear attack to Cuba and Soviet Union in 1962 because America didn’t allow any foreigner to militarize its “comfort zone”, Cuba. 3. Even now very few could really understand from the beginning of the Vietnam War why did advanced USA army dare not to across the 17 degrees north latitude after Chinese seriously warning, above which was also Chinese “comfort zone”, North Vietnam. And American army never ever went further north into this Chinese “comfort zone”. Instead, they just stayed behind there until 1975 they lost the Vietnam War. In conclusion, same as Korea War, Cuba Crisis, Vietnam War and nowadays Ukraine War against the provocation of NATO expansions, all are the same kind of game. Geopolitically and historically, every big country pursues its own “comfort zone” or buffer zone outside its borders! Russia is not exceptional.

Who is the aggressor/s? Is it not US and NATO? Is not expansion of NATO an act of aggression?

22:44, Sachs does not understand why Kennedy could not broadcast the nature of his agreement with Khrushchev 1963-1964? The deal was based on a trade, remove US Jupiter missiles in Turkey for Soviet missiles from Cuba. This could not be made public because; 1. Made US commitment to other areas of the world appear weak, like Europe and obviously Turkey. 2. A quid pro quo agreement would not have left Kennedy or Kennedy's party looking very resilient if nuclear activity did transpire. 3. Its unlikely Kennedy's close advisors would have blessed the real agreement. Also, the integrity of his deal would have been at risk. I admire Kennedy greatly. I tend to believe that he played chess on a several levels during this extremely turbulent time while still executing real, inclusive leadership. Often forgotten, the US and Soviet Russia have never officially been to war. And Kennedy played a key role in this! While Jeffery Sachs longs for more transparent foreign policy and wished Kennedy's negotiation was an object lesson for the average American; overlooked, the Korean war had already come and gone by 1964 and the Vietnam conflict was almost 10 years old. Unlikely to have changed much sentiment even if the noble lie had not been told by the great, John F. Kennedy.

Jeffrey Sachs for US President!

"they say we are dangerous and unpredictable but it is the US regime that has attacked more than 30 countries during the past 50 years we have attacked NON! They are afraid of us but we are not afraid of them" North Korea

Why is EU acting in unison with US and NATO in condemning and imposing sanctions against Russia so hastily while saying that EU is independent entity from US and not subserviant to dictates of US. Just be truthful in her speech and the world will be a better place for humanity.

In ancient teaching of the wise, it mentioned that to predict war and security in the future, just listen to the cry of animals slaughtering room in the night

Does anyone really belive that the United States would not have something to say, if, for an example, México Cuba are any country in central or Latin América were to form a military alience with the US advisorry, do you think any members of Congress would stand up and say, well you know, Mexcico is an independent country they have the right to do anything they want, I doubt that very much.

Ban Kin Mon isn’t a serious and honest person, y the Russian are occupying the zaporilla power plant, how they’re attacking themselves at the plant?

Russians never were bombing the Zaporozckaya Power Station. It is absurd.

The answer is simple get NATO out of Eastern Europe that what Putin wanted a buffer zone between East and West it makes a lot of sense , It up to the American people to protest of there government wanting to use Nuclear weapons, it up to all country to protest to stop warmongers,

in this palace of lies - a truth or two indeed hurts.
