Hi Danny, Thank you for inviting PePe to your show. I am an Iranian citizen of the United States. I have a few university degrees, including a Ph.D. in Political Psychology. Having taught courses in that field on topics such as the psychological bases of political decision-making and the history of conflict in the Middle East since the creation of Israel on the Palestinian land, I am fairly knowledgeable on these subjects. However, Pepe is head and shoulders above me. He belongs to the prestigious club of elite geopolitical analysts whose vast knowledge of the world's geopolitical landscape is so comprehensive and all-encompassing at a level to be considered as one of the greatest educators and storytellers. His ability to break down the complexities of the web of hidden labyrinthian typography of geopolitics is bar none. I never tire of listening to and learning from him. I am lucky to have such an educator as my teacher. He deserves to be acknowledged and revered. He is a gem of a man.
President Putin forgives but never never forgets. Erdogan blundered big time!! Another good post with the brilliant Pepe Escobar. Thanks to Danny for having him on. 👏👏👍👍
Excellent analysis, on awful events for the Syrian people. The Empire of Chaos definitely want to go down creating chaos and disaster, ultimately for everyone.

Their downfall tracks directly with their attacks on bluecollar workers wages from the 80's onwards. They destroyed their consumers spending ability. That birthed Bigbox import distributors such as Wallmart etc.. which bridged the gap between consumers and their declining earnings. This had the secondary effect of killing local manufacturing.. which further reduced consumer spending ability. Throw in credit to artificially kick the consumer spending can down the road and eventually you will arrive at a series of credit crunches.. the dominant player in the US economy now is the military industrial complex..they need war and plunder of other countries' assets to exist.
No, actually most likely they will finish Syria - or more precise strategically threaten this to happen, and have soemething to barter with Russia "You don't want that everything you built in the middle Est to crumble ? Well, maybe we can help you there, if you help us in Ukraine" which results in a strategic defeat of Russia - because of course the US will do whatever it can to really reform the middle East in their will (always israel included of course). I always had an extremly bad feeling when they let Idlib off the hook. That no one can trust Erdogan was also very clear from the start - thus entering into a deal with them without a hefty portion of contingency was a gamble - and they lost. Very, very bad situation if it cannot be reversed and as Pepe describes, very unlikely in the needed timeframe. The BRICS are frozen stiff in their tracks - only hope could be a hefty commitment on the part of Iran. If Syria falls the soft russian under belly lays bare and fires will start all over !

China and Russia have already won this war and it's confirmed by the acknowledgment of the west that the only way to regain the global majority for the west is through arm twisting and tariffs, ask trump if you still don't believe it.
Turkey has been fully in the NATO fold for some time: they have formally aligned with Ukraine, they sold them drones, they betrayed their word about the Azov nazis, they have also been (barely undercover) supplying Iraqi oil to Israel for more than a decade already, etc. But it became much more clear (at least since the US-Turkey crisis of 2016, that led to the anti-ISIS coalition and the US-Kurdish unstable alliance) when they were given a (much needed) massive loan in 2023 by the IMF (read: the USA) and they then stopped blocking the accession of Sweden to NATO. Next thing we know is that they and their satellite Azerbaijan moved, together with Israel, to end Artsakh (Upper Karabakh) self-rule of decades, while Russia did absolutely nothing (Iran at least has been making gestures of support but Russia has totally abandoned Armenia). Erdogan is not a bit more trustworthy than Angela Merkel; at least she admitted to be a total liar after the fact, Erdogan will just kick the can and pretend there's room for negotiation and duplicity, when he's now a total servant of the US Empire, which has of course carefully given him some bones but also some stick (Russia doesn't wield any stick against Turkey at all).

Great analysis. Thank you. My own inference is that there will be no more ceasefires, frozen conflicts, demilitarised zones type of endings to wars. Now it is obvious that wars will have to be fought to the finish. No more Minsk type deals. Now it will be war until victory.

@yemisitijani1218 maybe it's for information from the NATO i suppose but then that would still be silly to think that because BRICS was just a few weeks ago this is clearly a statement
I think people should think about what a Greater Israel would mean for the US and its European vassals. If Israel controlled the territory from the Nile to the Persian Gulf... That would be a huge advantage for the West. They would have control over the crossroads of the world, almost ALL the land and sea crossroads. Hence the unconditional support of the US and the West and their indifference to the people.
But why Russia an ally of Syria watching Israel to continue bombarding Syria since day one of the Syria conflict without taking any action against Israel….?
Great Session Danny! Please query the Pepe as to any insight into how the Mercenary leadership is able convince the pond soldiers to fight against their own interest and not for the access of resistance
Russia has only 1/4 of its military personnel and only 1/10 of its logistical and weapons material in Ukraine, according to all military experts and yourself Pepe; So why do you reason that Russia is going to have to move troops from the front in Ukraine to Syria?
TBH, I hate the guy so much that I would be disappointed if he hadn't pulled this. IMO Putin deserves this hard lesson, and so does anyone who trusts the Sultan.
This is the 3rd strike by Turkiye in disregard to Russia's relation with Syria. Turkiye knows nothing West or Russia can do becuase of the black sea access. I wonder!
Thank You For Your Condemnation Of “Netanyahu”. Satanyahu as a description is on the money. The Evil That Lies In Israel Disgusting and Frightful.👏👍🏻👏.
Thank you Danny and Pepe, what I understand BRICS partner status doesn't have decision making or voting power, it only participates in trade agreements and BRICS can maintain Turkey in that status for very long time, for the same reason Turkey was waiting long time to enter into the EU, now being a BRICS partner Erdogan cannot comeback and tell the EU "I decided that the EU is best for me" because now would be more difficult to be accepted. After the US put tariffs on Chinese products suddenly out of nothing Mexico became a top producer of all kind of things to sell them to the US and replaced China as its main trade partner, now Trump is threatening Mexico with tariffs, what is going to happen is that the US is going to isolate itself commercially from the rest of the world.
It seems to me that Russia and the "Global South" are always playing on the defence and hoping for the best and, as a result, fail to see vulnerabilities. The USA and NATO. by default always exercise the unforseen-the impossible-and are always on offense. If Russia and Iran, collectively, allegedly the best chess players in the world, want to be victorious (i.e. survive the inimitable arrogance of the West) then they need to play pressure offense. Being "asleep' is unforgivable.
Escobar always makes sense. But he is making a mistake when talking about the loss of territory. It seems to me that Syria, with Rusisa. are following he Russian tactic of ceding terriroty to draw the enemy in and then to wipe it out, which is what is slowly happening and effectively.
Not a great tactic and it's not something that Russia actually did at all: each concesion they made, had to be regained (if at all) very painfully. Remember how in February 2022 they were in the outskirts of Kiev and controlled much of NE Ukraine? They gave away all that as "good will" and, as soon as they did, Zelensky abandoned all the negotiations, and Russia will have to regain all that (and even more) if they want to regime-change Ukraine. Worse: they (as USSR) gave East Germany and the enemy took everything all the way to the outskirts of St. Petersburg and just a few hundred km to Moscow. When have they regained even a tiny bit of all that?
@@fuzzybear6191 - No, it's not "well established". I've been following the conflict since 2014 and I know that Russia (or Donbass previously) never attack civilians, they are exquisite in respecting the law of war. On the other side, the Ukro-nazis (or NATOplus in general) couldn't care less: they'll kill, extract organs from children, torture as cruelly as possible, bomb civilian areas, etc. all the time. You have been deceived by the propaganda of the US Empire.
If Russia wanted to regime change Ukraine all they have to do is level Kiev. But they don't want to do that. They don't want to try to rule or govern Ukraine. They want a sovereign, neutral and neutered Ukraine.

Pépé when we begin a job without finishing it to the end means that we didn’t do anything?! Believe me many are mocking Russia now and Iran there strategic patience won’t help them in that apocalyptic moment?! All the west plus Turkey and Israel feel that they counterbalance the previous situation?! So sad to see our hopes collapsing
Russia has been comitting many geostrategic evaluation errors, not just now but also in 2015, when they signed the Minsk Accords just when Donbass was clearly winning the war. You should never sign a truce, especially not a lenghty one, when you're winning: it will always be only to the advantage of your enemy.
@@LuisAldamizWest betrayed Putin. Frau Mörkel backed by Us betrayed their own people. Putin and Russia honor agreements unlike slimy West. West always cause the sh it.
Why should Russia have to take on all the struggles. WTF is China doing? And instead of criticising Russia perhaps Pepe should go back to Brazil and help the progressive movement there.
Unfortunately China wants to benefit from everywhere without taking any trouble on its hand. They need to understand a lit if this chaos is to disrupt the BRI.
They were trying to put a pause in Syria to deal with Ukraine. Russia kinda had no choice, Ukraine was gonna do a major offensive on the regions, violating the Minsk accords.
Such treachery by Turkiye. Another dangerous leader shows himself as being untrustable and preferring money to peace, at whatever the cost of lives and international credibility. I think many a country is saying that it's good to know who not to trust, and it's best to know that in advance, before finding out the hard way.
Treator Turkey.... If I was Putin and part od the BRICS, I would never invite them into a membership! He showed his real face, which is trying to play the both sides at the same time. If there is one thing Putin never forgives and forget is the treators!!!
how did syria allow this to happen? didnt they see build up of invading forces? or were also there lots of sleeping cells in Aleppo and they acted in unison? i thought russia was supposed to have satellite reconnaissance of the place? were high up syrian army people involved with invaders? so many questions here! huge blow against those resisting the empire .

All the west plus Turkey and Israel feel that they counterbalance the previous situation?! So sad to see our hopes collapsing
Russia has been comitting many geostrategic evaluation errors, not just now but also in 2015, when they signed the Minsk Accords just when Donbass was clearly winning the war. You should never sign a truce, especially not a lenghty one, when you're winning: it will always be only to the advantage of your enemy.
@@LuisAldamizWest betrayed Putin. Frau Mörkel backed by Us betrayed their own people.
Putin and Russia honor agreements unlike slimy West.
West always cause the sh it.
Time for Russia payback cancel all travel to Turkey for vacations for 5 years.
was already 1/3 less last year.
The US will be told to audit your reserves since it hasn't been done since 1953.
Why should Russia have to take on all the struggles. WTF is China doing? And instead of criticising Russia perhaps Pepe should go back to Brazil and help the progressive movement there.
The problem with the Chinese is that they've been sucking US/Western ass for decades now....they like their money too much.
Thank you excellent as always.
Thanks Danny

Unfortunately China wants to benefit from everywhere without taking any trouble on its hand. They need to understand a lit if this chaos is to disrupt the BRI.
Thank you sir
And handing out coffers full of printed dollars.....make them crazy.
Nice haircut Danny!
Erdogan called Putin and he did not pick up the call, another thing is that the Turkish diplomat spoke to whoever was in Moscow.
😮😮😮
Ur worse than a pinnoChios mate ‼️
Russia is to blame for this whole mess , they pushed that deal with Turkey.
They were trying to put a pause in Syria to deal with Ukraine. Russia kinda had no choice, Ukraine was gonna do a major offensive on the regions, violating the Minsk accords.
LOL
Such treachery by Turkiye. Another dangerous leader shows himself as being untrustable and preferring money to peace, at whatever the cost of lives and international credibility. I think many a country is saying that it's good to know who not to trust, and it's best to know that in advance, before finding out the hard way.
Treator Turkey.... If I was Putin and part od the BRICS, I would never invite them into a membership! He showed his real face, which is trying to play the both sides at the same time. If there is one thing Putin never forgives and forget is the treators!!!
Who gives a F?
This is nuttig new! Turks betraed/'fulled ' Lenin /kemal . till now putin /erdogan! Even Iran!
Traitor
😮😮😮

Escobar you better care about the cocain businesses in south America. You will make more sense then😂😂
how did syria allow this to happen? didnt they see build up of invading forces? or were also there lots of sleeping cells in Aleppo and they acted in unison? i thought russia was supposed to have satellite reconnaissance of the place? were high up syrian army people involved with invaders? so many questions here! huge blow against those resisting the empire .
Great analysis
