Europe is on the brink of a significant political shift as it prepares for the European Parliament elections. The possibility of a robust right-wing political coalition is not far-fetched. The diverse opinions on the candidates and the multiple contenders for the next NATO Secretary General position add to the intrigue of these elections.
Meanwhile, fighting continues on the Ukrainian front. However, Vladimir Putin has stated that he is considering a ceasefire. However, he wants it to be on his terms, including the recognition of already occupied territories, which Ukraine is clearly against.
Leading European countries are allowing Ukraine to use long-range missiles on Russian territory, while the USA still refrains from making such a decision.
These and other key global issues were discussed on the show “The World as It Is” by the host and political commentator Buka Petriashvili.
