Monday's Encounter
Monday March 3rd, 2014 with Boba Borojevic

15 years ago, On March 24, 1999, at the direction of the United States of America, NATO engaged in its first act of illegal aggressive war, beginning what can only be called the “dark age of intervention” in which we are living today. The significance of the western authorities in helping to overthrow the elected government in Ukraine in February 2014 is the reason, we at Monday's Encounter believe that our audience will benefit from the interview that prof. Stephen Cohen gave to the TV channel "Democracy Now" . Stephen Cohen, professor emeritus of Russian studies and politics at New York University and Princeton University. His most recent book, "Soviet Fates and Lost Alternatives: From Stalinism to the New Cold War," is out in paperback. His latest Nation article is "Distorting Russia: How the American Media Misrepresent Putin, Sochi and Ukraine." Democracy Now!, is an independent global news hour that airs weekdays on 1,200+ TV and radio stations Monday through Friday. Watch our livestream 8-9am ET at http://www.democracynow.org.
