1. On 27 January 2025, I did a long interview on \u201cPiers Morgan Uncensored.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We zeroed in on Gaza and Ukraine and talked about where those conflicts are today and what is likely to happen in each one now that Donald Trump has replaced Joe Biden in the White House. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neither one of us could tell an optimistic story. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Abstract <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor of Political Science at Chicago University John Mearsheimer returns to Uncensored to discuss with Piers Morgan the return of President Donald Trump, the long-sought Israel\/Hamas ceasefire and the grinding mud-caked machinery of Russia\u2019s war in Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor Mearsheimer takes the surprising view that Hamas is winning the war against Israel, admonishing both Trump and Netanyahu\u2019s continued push for the group\u2019s total destruction. He takes a similar bullish tone on Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine, strongly favouring Russia\u2019s chances of victory, though Piers makes the point that Putin resorting to using North Korean troops to fight Ukrainians within Russian territory doesn\u2019t exactly scream success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
