TNT Muckrakers panel discussion: Russia expels British diplomats, Putin and war with NATO, Starmer's visit to Washington and is there a happy ending to the Ukraine war?


As those of you who have read these pages for some time know, I appeared not long ago on the Johnny Vedmore show of the TNT global broadcasting network that is Australian owned and operates from Britain. On that program I was interviewed by Johnny in a 10 minute slot. Yesterday we were both panelists responding to questions posed by a moderator. The shows are aired live and then released on a number of internet platforms. On Monday I am scheduled to participate in another of their programs hosted by the former British MEP James Freeman.


The tone of these programs is lively and always topical. Yesterday's opened with discussion of the latest Russian expulsion of six British diplomats on spying charges. As I remarked, the Brits may look upon this as a down payment on possible severing of diplomatic relations that Russian Duma member Lugovoy called for a day ago on the Vladimir Solovyov talk show. Why? The answer lies in the aggressively hostile disposition of the recently installed New Labour government and its guiding role in the Ukrainian invasion of Kursk oblast. As we know, the preceding Tory government of Boris Johnson was responsible for the cancellation of the Russian-Ukrainian peace agreement initialed by both sides in March 2022 as well as for several high visibility terrorist attacks within Russia.


Among other topics of the day, we also talked about Putin's remark during his visit to Petersburg on Thursday that NATO members which end restrictions on Kiev's use of the offensive weapons they have supplied for attacks on Russia's heartland will be considered to have become co-belligerents.


I am hopeful that our three-way discussion with the moderator will be as interesting and informative for viewers as it was stimulating for me as panelist.
