(Video) In the imperial crosshairs: Trump’s war and its consequences for the people of Iran and Ukraine
The US and Israel have waged an unprovoked, barbaric war on Iran for over a month. The country’s regime, which recently repressed a mass popular uprising, has responded by firing missiles on countries throughout the region, shutting down the Strait of Hormuz, cutting off the flow of oil and natural gas, and thereby paralyzing the world economy. Russia has reaped the benefits, raking in profits on its fossil fuel exports and using them to bankroll its ongoing imperialist war on Ukraine.

Catarina Martins
Denys: Your visit to Ukraine was short, but a very intense one. You met so many representatives of different movements of diverse spheres. What struck you in this visit to Kyiv? Catarina: I read a lot about the war and about the situation, so there’s some information that I already had. But it’s quite different when we listen to the people that are living through it, because we are not solely reason ruled: there’s an emotional part of it.
