“Nobody thought the conflict in Ukraine would last this long,” states Scott Ritter, a former Marine intelligence officer and weapons inspector, as the second anniversary of Russia’s special military operation is reached. Ritter predicts that the conflict will end within the year, but there are no positive outcomes. He warns that Ukraine will cease to exist, NATO will disband or alter fundamentally and the risk of nuclear war is high. Ritter also discusses the resignation of Victoria Nuland, revelations from the leaked conversation by German military officers and how the façade of US military dominance has been shattered by events in Ukraine and Western Asia.
