The Mariner Podcast #60: Thoughts on the Crisis in the Ukraine

This episode of the Mariner is very different from previous episodes- I have decided to speak a little about my understanding of what is going on in the Ukraine. My views are those of a person who spends his life at sea working as a professional sailor, I am not a geo-political analyst or even a very political person BUT I do have eyes and ears and I am disgusted to see what has been happening within Europe in the last few weeks.

Take what I have to say with a bucket of sea water.

My views are intended to be balanced, researched and fair but, if you are insulted or offended by anything I have to say I am sorry about that. However, I do not apologize for exercising my ability to speak freely- which I believe is the only route to peace and understanding for everyone.
