Czech President Petr Pavel on Russian Aggression

Arson attacks, air space violations and assassination squads: Those were among the warnings from Poland's Foreign Minister, Radek Sikorski, at a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Ireland today. This comes just after Germany announced that it was in fact Moscow behind last month's attack in Leipzig Airport, where an explosive drone was found near two Ukrainian cargo planes. None of this surprises Czech Republic President Petr Pavel, who told us back in April that Putin likely would attempt increasingly bold campaigns against NATO. Pavel joins the show from Prague to discuss.  Also on today's show: Tennessee State Representative Justin J. Pearson on the battle over data centers; Notre Dame law professor Derek Muller on the battle over mail-in ballots    Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
