In today's episode, we analyze the revised 19-point peace plan for Ukraine, examining the deep divisions between the US and its European allies and the stark contrast between diplomacy and Russia's ongoing military assaults. Our second deep dive explores the United States' multi-pronged pressure campaign against Venezuela, including the novel use of a terrorist designation against a network of government officials and the mixed signals of military buildup and potential diplomatic talks. We also cover Israel's assassination of Hezbollah's chief of staff in Beirut, escalating China-Japan tensions over Taiwan, and the conclusion of the G20 summit in South Africa.
