@yeiertw: Can historical narratives justify changing internationally recognized borders? In this excerpt from the ALLATRA podcast, former CIA intelligence officer Glenn Corn explains why the key legal reference point is 1991, when the Soviet Union dissolved and Ukraine became an independent state within internationally recognized borders. Russia recognized those borders and later reaffirmed its commitment to respect Ukraine's sovereignty in the Budapest Memorandum after Ukraine gave up its nuclear arsenal. According to Glenn Corn, attempts to justify territorial claims by selectively interpreting history are a common element of information warfare. He argues that if internationally recognized borders can be redrawn based on changing historical narratives, it would undermine the principles of international law and global security. This interview explores: • Information warfare and disinformation • Russia–Ukraine history and the 1991 independence of Ukraine • The Budapest Memorandum • International law and state sovereignty • Historical narratives in geopolitical conflicts • How history influences public opinion and political decisions Watch the full interview with former CIA officer Glenn Corn on the ALLATRA channel. https://youtu.be/JldCdP_CCKY #GlennCorn #Ukraine #RussiaUkraine #InformationWarfare #Disinformation #BudapestMemorandum #InternationalLaw #History #Geopolitics #Security #ALLATRA
