#207: Asia's Reaction to the Invasion of Ukraine
Manage episode 366584669 series 2201517
In June 2022 Indonesian President Joko Widodo went first to the Ukraine, and later to Moscow, hand delivering a letter from President Zelensky to Vladimir Putin. His purpose, to quote, was to open a dialogue forum for peace, to build peace, because the war has to be stopped.
Widodo’s carefully worded statement, about ending a war but not necessarily pointing fingers, is emblematic of Asia’s response to the Ukraine invasion, to the extent where a UN vote for sanctions against the Ukraine earned the muted response of most Asian counties abstaining from voting.
Guest: Associate Professor Nobuhiro Aizawa (School of Social and Cultural Studies at Kyushu University).
Recorded on 18th April, 2023.
