Summary
The Duran: Episode 2535 A small but vocal group of hardliners is quietly steering Europe toward a potential conflict with Russia by 2030, and Alex Christoforou and Alexander Mercouris on The Duran break down exactly who they are, why the majority of European politicians are failing to stop them, and how Macron's latest tanker seizure fits into a deliberate strategy of manufactured crisis. At the same time Europe talks tough and seizes ships in the Atlantic, it is quietly easing Russian oil sanctions because it cannot function without that energy, a contradiction so glaring that it raises an obvious question: is this really about standing up to Russia, or is someone using the threat of conflict for entirely different reasons? 00:00:00 Introduction and Europe War 2030 Claims 00:01:25 UK Military Exercises and Tanker Seizures 00:02:14 European Unpreparedness for Conflict 00:04:17 Who Is Actually Pushing for War 00:06:30 Warmongers Capturing Western Policy 00:07:51 Macron and the Tanker Seizure Strategy 00:09:59 Russian Naval Response and Escalation Risk 00:11:22 The Logic Behind Manufactured Crisis 00:12:39 Macron's Political Motivations 00:13:12 Russia Oil Leverage and Energy Reality 00:15:03 Closing Remarks ***THE DURAN SHOP*** https://theduranshop.com ***REVERSE GEAR SHOP*** Athleisure with Style https://reversegear.shop/ ***THE DURAN COMMUNITY ON LOCALS*** https://theduran.locals.com Join Now Get 1 Month Free Trial ***OUR OFFICIAL CHANNELS*** ALEXANDER: https://www.youtube.com/AlexanderMercourisReal ALEX: https://www.youtube.com/alexchristoforou ***CRYPTO SUPPORT*** BITCOIN: 3JvdnoyWMb93hSRgk58ZstUxg11PW9mKSr ETHEREUM: 0xF39BdFb41f639B82E3D2Bf022828bC6394F533A3 LTC: MGFiMC18ZViF6DcCixMqAAP11TG4tF6Acj EMC2: EXX4KK9pZLx7uiLWnCXtp7iMKjtq6o5b6R ***DONATE*** CRED…
