Much has been said about the ongoing global conflict between American imperialism and the Russian bear, which appears to have awoken from its long winter slumber. Global public opinion has been bombarded with a slew of misinformation and misinterpretations based on the ideological biases of various media outlets. With massive propaganda exercises on both the Western and Russian sides, the information war has clearly reached a new high point.

They are now accusing Ukraine of planning an attack on the country’s two breakaway republics in the east.

Is it possible to reach some minimum agreements? Who is most interested in maintaining tensions and who is most interested in peace?
