James Carden of The American Conservative and David Speedie of the Carnegie Council’s Global Engagement Program sat down with Baron Robert Sidelsky to discuss his newfound optimism regarding a settlement between Russia and Ukraine and Europe’s continued dependence on American security guarantees. Baron Skidelsky has been a member of Britain’s House of Lords since 1991. He is professor emeritus of political economy at Warwick University in the United Kingdom. The author of the definitive and prize-winning three-volume biography of the economist John Maynard Keynes, Skidelsky has been one of the United Kingdom’s most principled and outspoken critics of the UK’s pro-war Ukraine policy.
