In this episode of The Source, senior editor Zain Raza speaks with world-renowned economist Yanis Varoufakis about the economic rationale behind President Donald Trump’s latest tariff policies and their global impact. The conversation then shifts to the German economy, examining whether the proposed plan of the newly formed coalition government can guide the country toward recovery. They also discuss the recent political ban of far-right French politician Marine Le Pen, following her conviction for misappropriating EU funds to finance staff for her national party, effectively disqualifying her from the 2027 presidential race. The episode concludes with an analysis of the ongoing war in Ukraine, as well as Israel’s military assault on Gaza.
