Commentator Germano Almeida analyzed, on the War and Peace program, the geopolitical situation related to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. In his intervention, Germano Almeida stated that Vladimir Putin does not intend to merely control the Donbas, but rather to conquer all of Ukraine.

The analyst also commented on Donald Trump's positions regarding the conflict. Trump has adopted a stance that, according to Germano Almeida, favors the Russian position in the dispute.

Additionally, Germano Almeida addressed the relationship between Trump and Canada, in a broader context of the former American president's positions on foreign policy.

The War and Peace program serves as a platform for these political analyses on the major international conflicts of today.
