In a 56-minute special, I joined CEO Retort’s Tim El-Sheikh to analyze the “new world disorder”, and how we can understand and deal with it.
After an overview of today’s unstable global situation, I dive into the split among Gulf States amid the US-Israel War on Iran. I explain the political as well as economic reasons behind the UAE’s departure from the oil cartel OPEC, examining its connection with the Trump Administration and Israel.
Then, taking my lead from professional wrestling, I describe a geopolitical “Royal Rumble”, with alliances being broken and realignments without the US at the center. As the Trump camp struggles over its war on Iran, I consider how countries such as China, India, and Russia — stalled in its invasion of Ukraine — and blocs like the European Union are responding.
We chat about the stock markets, Big Tech, and AI before I have a look at the split within the Trump Administration, including Vice President J.D. Vance distancing himself from his boss’s war.
