The Sabotage of Peace | General Harald Kujat

In this interview, retired four-star German Air Force General Harald Kujat – former Inspector General of the Bundeswehr and Chairman of the NATO Military Committee – offers a rare blend of high-level military experience and clear-eyed diplomatic realism. As the most senior military official, he was the interface between the political leadership and the military. It was his job to draft the war plans, of how many tanks, troops and military hardware was needed for any and all war scenario plans. He, more than anyone, understands the true cost of war. He also served a one of the chief negotiators with the Russians in the 1990s and early 2000s, having personally met Putin himself. This experience provided him perspective on the situation now and and what it would take to resolve the current conflict.
