Interview with Michael von der Schulenburg
Is the West in the process of destroying its own world order?
Michael von der Schulenburg, a former UN diplomat and current Member of the European Parliament, analyses the war in Iran and the global situation. He poses a crucial question:
Is the West heading towards an escalation that it can no longer control?
The discussion covers:
– the war in Iran and its global dimension
– Europe’s strategic position between two wars
– the end of the UN Charter and international rules
– the growing danger of nuclear war
– misjudgements in Western policy
– the loss of diplomacy and trust
“We are destroying ourselves by doing this.”
The West risks not only military defeats, but is losing its very foundation: a rules-based world order.
Schulenburg criticises above all the political short-sightedness and warns of long-term consequences.
What is the guest calling for?
– A return to diplomacy
– Recognition of geopolitical realities
– A move away from military escalation
A conversation about power, order, responsibility and strategic failure.
