Luke Harding Betrayal – Trump, Putin, and the New Age of Conquest

Ours is now a world in which Trump’s America has endorsed Putin’s land-grab in Ukraine, painted Europe as an enemy, and toppled and kidnapped Venezuela’s president Nicolás Maduro. Meanwhile, an anti-western alliance has taken shape featuring China, Russia, Iran and North Korea. Countries find themselves in an uncertain and dangerous era. It is a return to nineteenth century imperialism and spheres of influence – but with withering modern firepower. In this critical event, Luke Harding will discuss his new book Betrayal, charting the dramatic collapse of the post-1945 international system. Harding is a #1 New York Times bestselling author and journalist.
