In this encore presentation, host Reed Galen is joined by the Political Scientist, Humanitarian Expert, and now member of the Polish Parliament, Aleksandra K. Wiśniewska to discuss the importance of humanitarian aid on the international stage, her first-hand account of the current state of Ukraine (the people, the politics, and the military), and how Poland plays a crucial role as NATO’s eastern flank. Plus, what is the root cause of so many European nations moving to the right and embracing autocracy? If you’d like to keep up with Aleksandra K.
