"Well, I've been reading a lot about the fifty years since the Second World War, about Western foreign policy and all that. I try not to let it get to me, but sometimes I just think that there's no hope"

He is trying to remain positive, but the truth of the situation is excessive for him to overlook. He is having a hard time to discover hope in a world that appears to be filled with dispute and injustice. His words suggest that he is feeling powerless and unable to make a difference in the world. He is trying to remain positive, however the reality of the scenario is excessive for him to disregard. His words show a deep sense of sadness and frustration, and a sensation that the world is beyond repair.
