What if the decisive moment of the Ukraine war is not happening in Washington, Brussels, or even Kyiv—but in Odesa?
In this in-depth geopolitical analysis inspired by the work of Yanis Varoufakis, we examine why Odesa is the true strategic linchpin of the war, and how its potential loss would mark not only a collapse of Ukraine’s economic viability, but a profound turning point in global power.
This video explores:
Why access to the Black Sea determines Ukraine’s survival as a state
How U.S. sanctions and military escalation exposed the limits of economic coercion
The deeper historical and structural causes behind the conflict
Why the war signals a breakdown of U.S. hegemony and the acceleration of a multipolar world order
This is not a moralistic narrative or a battlefield update. It is a causal, structural analysis of how geography, industrial capacity, and great-power logic are reshaping the international system—often in ways the public is not prepared to confront.
