    E71: The Jews They Won't Let Speak | Yanis Varoufakis & James Schneider

    Germany pioneered Europe's crackdown on Palestine solidarity, and Britain is catching up fast — proscribing solidarity groups as terrorist organisations, criminalising slogans, and threatening to ban the marches altogether. What the official story leaves out: the anti-genocide Jewish voices being written out of "the Jewish community." They have been silenced, expelled from parties, and accused of antisemitism for opposing a genocide.  The same establishment that pushed Corbyn out now decides who's allowed to speak as a Jew. In this livestream, Yanis Varoufakis is joined by James Schneider — co-founder of Momentum and Jeremy Corbyn's former Communications Director, currently serving as Communications Director for Progressive International — to take on what's happening in Britain, Labour's collapse, what's coming across Europe, and what resistance looks like now.  FOLLOW THE SPEAKERS: Yanis Varoufakis (site): https://yanisvaroufakis.eu  James Schneider: https://x.com/schneiderhome  Mehran Khalili (newsletter on effective activism): https://mehrankhalili.com/subscribe  SUPPORT US Join: https://diem25.org/join ​ Donate: https://diem25.org/donate  Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/c/DiEM25official

    E70: The Iran Reckoning — What the crisis means for Europe's politics, and your pocket

    The Iran war isn't just a Middle East story: it's landing on Europe right now, in energy bills, in supply chains, in political calculations from Berlin to Rome. And the questions most people are asking aren't being answered clearly anywhere. How exposed are we in Europe really, and why? Who gets hit hardest? What will this crisis do to European politics as elections approach — and how will people express their anger? In this livestream, Wolfgang Munchau joins Yanis Varoufakis and Mehran Khalili for a live conversation that goes beyond the headlines: what's actually happening, what it means for ordinary people across Europe, and what — if anything — can still be done.  FOLLOW THE SPEAKERS Yanis Varoufakis (site): https://yanisvaroufakis.eu Wolfgang Munchau: https://x.com/EuroBriefing  Mehran Khalili (newsletter on effective activism): https://mehrankhalili.com/subscribe SUPPORT US Join: https://diem25.org/join ​  Donate: https://diem25.org/donate  Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/c/DiEM25official

    Tortured for Saying No: One Ukrainian's Determination to Resist Nonviolently

    As Europe rearms and conscription returns across the continent, what happens to those who refuse to fight? In the first episode of a new Frontline series on conscientious objection, host Mehran Khalili speaks to Yurii Sheliazhenko — a Ukrainian legal scholar, pacifist, and winner of the Seán MacBride Peace Prize. He's been a declared conscientious objector since 1998. Two weeks before this interview, Yurii was grabbed off the street in Kyiv, beaten, pepper-sprayed, and held for two days without a lawyer. He now faces trial for "justifying Russian aggression" — based on a document he wrote that condemns Russia's invasion.  His trial is on 13 May. With wars escalating and military spending exploding, Yurii's story is no longer just about Ukraine. It's about what happens to all of us when our governments tell us to fight.  FOLLOW THE SPEAKERS Yurii Sheliazhenko (his organisation): https://pacifism.org.ua/en/about  Mehran Khalili (newsletter on effective activist tactics): https://mehrankhalili.com/subscribe SHOW NOTES Support Yurii: - Sign the petition to drop charges against him: https://worldbeyondwar.org/yurii-sheliazhenko-abducted/ Get involved in the conscientious objection movement: - War Resisters' International: https://wri-irg.org - European Bureau for Conscientious Objection: https://ebco-beoc.org  - Connection e.V.

    E68: Iran — The War Nobody Is Stopping, with Yanis Varoufakis and Grace Blakeley

    Opposition to the Iran war exists, in the polls, on the streets, across Europe. But it isn't translating into political pressure. Why not? And what would it take to change that? In this livestream, Yanis Varoufakis and Grace Blakeley examine the structural barriers keeping anti-war sentiment from becoming anti-war power, and what resistance could actually look like from here. Hosted by Mehran Khalili.

    Iran after the strike: what just happened?

    On 28 February the US and Israel launched a joint military operation against Iran. The strikes killed the Supreme Leader and hit cities across the country. What most reports leave out is that the attacks came hours after Oman's foreign minister announced that Iran had accepted a diplomatic opening. Why did it happen then? Why has Europe stayed silent? Why did Spain break ranks? And what does the EU's €800 billion rearmament push have to do with all of this? This conversation looks at what is really driving the conflict — and what people can actually do about it. Mehran Khalili speaks with Amir Kiyaei, policy director of DiEM25. Both have Iranian roots and family in Iran.  FOLLOW THE SPEAKERS Amir Kiyaei → https://x.com/AmirKiyaei  Mehran Khalili (newsletter) → https://mehrankhalili.com/subscribe SUPPORT DiEM25 Join → https://diem25.org/join  Donate → https://diem25.org/donate

    E67: Europe Has Become a War Project — Can It Be Stopped? | Yanis Varoufakis & Jeffrey Sachs

    As leaders, generals and diplomats gather in Munich this weekend to debate Europe's security and the future of the transatlantic alliance, the real question is not what is said on stage, but what direction Europe is being steered toward.  In this livestream, Yanis Varoufakis and Jeffrey Sachs will examine the conclusions of the Munich Security Conference — and the wider headlines, reactions and signals surrounding it — separating rhetoric from reality. Is "strategic autonomy" taking shape, or are old dependencies being reinforced? What does Munich reveal about Ukraine, NATO and Europe's room to manoeuvre? An essential hour for anyone trying to understand where Europe is headed. Hosted by Mehran Khalili. Join us live and put your questions to the panel!
