Grayzone Radio 5: Disrupting Zelensky's World Tour

Grayzone Radio 5: Disrupting Zelensky's World Tour

Summary:

First we hear about the Grayzone challenging delegates representing the Ukrainian diaspora as they made their way to the U.S. Congress.

The second part is an excerpt of the Redacted podcast, hosted by Clayton Morris, with Wyatt Reed and Max Blumenthal. They discuss The Grayzone being disinvited from Web Summit, a tech industry mega-event in Lisbon, Portugal. This followed a personal lobbying campaign spearheaded by Ukrainian First Lady Olena Zelenska. Zelenska was the surprise keynote speaker appealing for more billions in the proxy war against Russia. Wyatt Reed then discusses his close call while reporting in the Ukraine, having his hotel bombed by US-allied forces moments before he arrived after having accidently shared his location on social media.

Finally, we go to Peru. The Grayzone's Oscar Leon speaks with Anahi Durand, the former Minister of Women and Vulnerable People in the government of Peru's ex-President Pedro Castillo, a schoolteacher and union leader-turned-politician was removed from power by parliament, placed in detention and replaced with an unelected figure.
