Скачать или смотреть 'We Are Ready to PROTECT Our People': NATO Chief Rutte Warns Russia

On this episode of Global News Today on Al Arabiya English, presenter Tom Burges Watson leads comprehensive coverage of the latest diplomatic manoeuvring around the war in Ukraine, as fragile peace efforts enter a critical phase.


We examine the high-stakes visit to Moscow by U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff, sent to explore whether a negotiated settlement remains possible amid mounting geopolitical tensions. The programme analyses reactions from Washington, Kyiv, and European capitals as hopes for dialogue face renewed uncertainty.


Tensions escalate further as President Vladimir Putin issues a stark warning to Europe, declaring that Russia is “ready for a war if they start one.” Our analysts break down the political and military context behind the statement and what it signals for the months ahead.


With expert insight and strategic analysis, we speak to a former Chief of Staff to President Trump and a former U.S. National Security Adviser to address the central question: Is there still a realistic chance for peace in Ukraine, or is the region drifting toward deeper confrontation?


We also dive into the rapidly intensifying standoff between the United States and Venezuela, exploring Washington’s pressure on Nicolás Maduro’s government and how Caracas is responding — and what this means for regional stability.


Guests:
• Ambassador John Bolton, Former U.S. National Security Adviser
• Mick Mulvaney, Former Chief of Staff to President Trump
• William Alberque, Former Director of NATO’s Arms Control Division
• Diego Sequera, Journalist, Caracas
