TL;DR Summary

In his last interview with Democracy Now!, Daniel Ellsberg warned that the crisis over Ukraine and Taiwan could lead to a nuclear war. He revealed that the US had drawn up plans to attack China with nuclear weapons during the 1958 Taiwan Strait Crisis, which he called an "insane" policy that would end most life on Earth. Ellsberg also criticized the US for rejecting the idea of negotiations in Ukraine and urged President Biden not to involve the US directly in the war. He believed that the US and British's refusal to accept a prewar status quo agreement between Ukraine and Russia was a crime against humanity.
