With decades of military experience, including as commanding general of US Army Europe–General Hodges doesn’t mince words. From why Russia hasn’t used nuclear weapons to how the US is deterring itself, Hodges offers a bracing indictment of Western hesitation and a powerful case for why Ukrainian victory is essential—not just for Europe, but for America’s own security and credibility. He explains why negotiated settlements won’t bring peace, how disinformation is Russia’s most effective weapon against NATO, and why the real bottleneck in supporting Ukraine isn’t industrial capacity—it’s political will.
If you think this war is someone else’s problem, Hodges is here to change your mind.
This is one of the most urgent interviews we've had. From NATO’s credibility to the threat of nuclear blackmail, this conversation explores what’s really at stake—and why the path to peace runs through victory, not compromise.
