About this listen

 In the seventh episode of EDUCIDE, hosted by Mike Cunningham, the focus is on the concept of 'lawfare'— the strategic utilization of legal systems to achieve military or political objectives, explored through the lens of events surrounding the forced landing of a Ryanair Flight orchestrated by Belarus to arrest a dissident journalist on board. Cunningham elaborates on the intricate use of global legal mechanisms and international regulations in place, with a focus on the subsequent indictment of key Belarusian officials and the swift international response that ensued. The host also delves into the legal complexities of the U.S. charges made in the context of international jurisdiction and the potential bias of an immediate response without a thorough investigation. Cunningham rounds off the conversation by highlighting the importance of critical thinking skills when interpreting such complex global affairs.
