Hi Everyone! Welcome back to International Intrigue's newest show: John&Jacob! Every week, Intrigue CEO and Former Australian Diplomat John Fowler and Cognitive Investments Director of Geopolitical Analysis Jacob Shapiro bring you fresh, egoless analysis of the world's most pressing stories.
This week we kick things off with the CEO of Telegram, Pavel Durov, being arrested by French authorities and the greater conversation of social media and communication platforms' role in cracking down on the unsavory things that happen on their servers.
We then go to our main discussion of Canada's new tariffs on EVs and other Chinese-made products, how they affect China's current standard of overproduction, and how China will address its currently deteriorating economy.
