Incase anyone was wondering where Jeffery Sachs allegiances lie.
> In 2022, he appeared twice on one of Russia government-funded top-rated shows, hosted by Vladimir Solovyov, to call for Ukraine to negotiate and step away from its "maximalist demands" of removing Russia from Ukrainian territory,[73] for which he was criticised by the Wall Street Journal.[74]
> In 2023, he blamed the United States for its supposed role in the Russo-Ukrainian War, claiming it "wrongly conspired" in the "overthrow" of president Viktor Yanukovych in the 2014 Revolution of Dignity, and then pushed "NATO enlargement to encircle Russia."[75][non-primary source needed]
> Sachs has suggested that the U.S. was responsible for the sabotage of the Nord Stream pipeline. In February 2023, he was invited by the Russian government to address the United Nations Security Council about the topic.[76][26]
