Pepe Escobar, Larry Johnson – US vs BRICS; The Global Battle for Power; Iran, Russia, China

by Counter Currents [6-28-2025 published] Pepe Escobar(bio), Larry C. Johnson(bio).

(This discussion between Larry Johnson & Pepe Escobar is packed with a lot of insights about how the US is trying to derail BRICS and the replacement of the $dollar & the SWIFT system for settling international transactions. Israel was being devastated by Iran's retaliation. Unlike Israel's indiscriminate bombing of both military targets & civilians, Iran focused only on military targets in Israel. Although Trump claimed that both Israel & Iran called at the same time for help in stopping this conflict, it was only Israel because they were running out of military defense capabilities & were suffering serious military losses.

Pepe & Larry discuss the many complex interactions facing Iran, Russia, & China. Trump & his team are making matters worse by not understanding these countries. For Russia & China, it is imperative that Iran not fail. Pepe is heading o Brazil for the BRICS gathering. — RAD)
