  The secret war in Ukraine

  Jacques Baud

  What forces are operating in the shadows of the war in Ukraine, both inside and outside the theater of operations? What clandestine operations have been going on for the past three years, unknown to the general public? How does the secret war between Russia and Western countries often spill over into terrorism? What assassinations have been carried out against oligarchs across Europe? How are Western intelligence services, particularly British, helping the Ukrainians? What is the presence of Ukrainian services in Russia? What has become of the American biological laboratories since 1922?...
  To answer these questions and many others, Jacques Baud draws on official information, American, Western, Ukrainian and Russian documents. Between secret diplomacy and clandestine operations, the war in Ukraine was far more complex than the media portrayed it. 
  Following on from the bestsellers Putin, the Master of the Game, Operation Z and Ukraine Between War and Peace and The Art of Russian War, whose analytical work has been acclaimed worldwide and whose books have been translated in many countries (USA, China, Japan, Korea, Great Britain, Germany -bestseller-, Russia, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Norway, Turkey, Brazil and the Arab countries), the author returns to the clandestine war that has been waged between Russia, Ukraine and Western countries for the past three years.

  American Conservatism: History...

  This expertly-taught course invites you on a journey through 100 years of American conservative history.  The history and development of American conservatism is as fascinating as it is complex. While conservative commentators, politicians, and pundits abound, few truly understand how the conservative movement came to be the institution it is today. Now, you can learn about this vital history in 12 thought-provoking lectures.  Conservatism is not a rigid ideology; rather, as you will learn, its protean character has allowed it to adapt and survive as a major force in the history of ideas and in politics. In recent decades, conservatism has become a political force in the nation, but it took many years of building and organizing to construct the necessary institutions to do so.  You will start with the beginnings of the conservative movement and its reaction to the New Deal. You will then explore the greatest figures of conservatism, from William F. Buckley and his publication of National Review, to the Barry Goldwater campaign of 1964, up through the rise of Reagan and his ensuing political influence. You will then consider the future of the conservative movement.  Born from intellectual activity rather than political power, conservatives constructed a movement based around the propositions of free market economics, the preservation of tradition, and combat with communism. This is an essential course for all those seeking to gain a fuller understanding of conservatism and American political history.This course is part of the Learn25 Collection.

  Has Vladimir Putin become the master of the game? Why and how did the Russian President decide to attack Ukraine? Did he seek to prevent Ukraine from associating with Europe? Does he seek to reconstitute the USSR? Did NATO promise not to expand east after 1990? Is the Nord Stream 2 project the sinews of war? Is Ukraine's neutrality the only solution? Has Russia ever lost or won the war?... Based on the files of the intelligence services and official reports, Jacques Baud thus reviews the events of the recent history of Russia, which led to the war with Ukraine; it analyzes the various disputes between the West and Russia, and sheds light on the role that Putin plays today on the international scene. Colonial Jacques Baud is a former member of the Swiss Strategic Intelligence, a specialist in Eastern Europe and former head of Doctrine of the United Nations Peace Operations. Within NATO, he was involved in programs in Ukraine, including after the Maidan Revolution of 2014 and 2017. He is the author of several books on intelligence, war and terrorism, including Putin, Game master?, Governing by Fake News and The Navalny Affair, all published by Max Milo. 
  This audiobook is read by a synthesized voice.
