Book talk: Betrayal by Luke Harding
About this Event
The Guardian's senior international correspondent Luke Harding talks about his new book Betrayal: Trump, Putin and the New Age of Conquest with the investigative journalist and The Nerve co-founder Carole Cadwalladr.
Betrayal chartsthe dramatic collapse of the post-1945 international system. The agreement that nations do not change borders by force is under attack, not just from Russia but from America, too. Donald Trump has threatened to seize Greenland and bombed Iran as part of a violent remaking of the Middle East. Vladimir Putin's bloody imperial campaign to erase Ukraine and redraw Europe's map continues. Meanwhile, China eyes up Taiwan.
Written in a thrilling style, Betrayal reports from across the globe during an extraordinary era. Luke Harding visits villages in eastern Ukraine under Russian bombardment, talks to Greenlanders about a US takeover and sits down with Volodymyr Zelenskyy. There are new revelations about Oleg Voloshyn, the alleged spy for Russia, who bribed Reform's now jailed former leader in Wales, Nathan Gill. The event will offer an essential guide to brutal Great Power politics and how it came back.
