Yanis Varoufakis in Conversation with Jeffrey Sachs on the Six Global Crises Confronting Humanity
Streamed on Apr 23, 2025
Jeffrey Sachs and Yanis Varoufakis worked together a decade ago to prevent Europe from harming itself by crushing Greece. They failed. Since then, Europe’s self-harming policies exacerbated by a lethal dependence on, and servility to, the US have had nasty repercussions for Ukraine, Palestine as well as Europe’s relations with China.
Now that Trump is back, with Europe’s Green Deal already abandoned, the world is facing the perfect storm: intense trade (and thus class) wars, a mounting Cold War with China, an ultra-hot war in Ukraine, a heart-wrenching genocide in Palestine, and an accelerating climate emergency.
On Tuesday 22nd April, Jeff Sachs and Yanis Varoufakis get back together again to reminisce, to take stock of a world spinning out of control and, crucially, to propose tangible solutions that we must campaign for today.
This livestreamed conversation is organised by DiEM25 while also being transmitted live across China through the network of the China Academy

Europe is ruled by oligarchs.
They own our apartments, the banks, the apps we need to work, our digital data, the oil and gas that are destroying our planet, and the politicians that were supposed to represent us.
Only one thing can change that: a democratic revolution.
