UKRAINE WAR: Negotiate, Don’t Escalate and Risk WWIII

Retired Lt. Col. Karen Kwiatowski of the Eisenhower Media Network will discuss the critical stage that the Ukraine War has reached, and the urgent need to end it with painful but realistic concessions now before Ukraine loses far more soldiers and territory in the near future, and before possible US/NATO escalation to help Ukraine avoid total defeat leads to the precipice of nuclear war with Russia.

After retiring, she became a noted critic of the U.S. involvement in Iraq.

She contributed to Ron Paul: A Life of Ideas (2008) and Why Liberty: Personal Journeys Toward Peace and Freedom (2010). She has been featured in several documentaries, including Why We Fight (2005).
