With so much happening in the world, Misha and Hagar caught up for their regular chinwag that went waaaaay longer than it was supposed to (as it always does — but we love having Hagar on!)
In this episode we talk:
- Russia’s domestic political crackdown, including the arrest of Wall Street Journal reporert, Evan Gershkovich and the sentencing of dissident Vladimir Kara Murza
- The US Intelligence leaks, what do they mean and who benefits?
- Sudan: will a civil war have big geopolitical consequences?
- China, Macron and Taiwan: what do we make of the rising East Asia tensions? Could war break out in 2027? or 24?
- Chinese government secret police stations around the world.
- Also, Saudi Arabia joining the BRICs and how Russia recruited a US citizen to pose as a pro-Russia Ukrainian living inside the Donbas.
