‘ON THE GROUND’ SHOW FOR APRIL 1, 2022: Russia-Ukraine Conflict Unleashes Political and Economic Upheaval… Gerald Horne, Carlos Ron, Venezuela’s Vice Minister for Foreign Affairs for North America… Plus Headlines 


As President Biden mentions the quiet part out loud, about U.S. dreams for regime change in Russia, the conflict in Ukraine is unleashing a tide of political and economic changes in the world. We speak to historian Gerald Horne. And the effort to evict Russia and Russian oil and gas from the world economy even prompts the U.S. to meet with Venezuela, where U.S. sanctions have killed more than 100,000 people. An interview with Carlos Ron, Venezuelas Vice Minister for Foreign Affairs for North America. Plus headlines, including signing of Emmett Till Anti-Lynching Act.
