Day 1,476.Today, as US envoy Steve Witkoff says “we can take them at their word” after Russia denies sharing intelligence about American forces with Iran – before adding “let's hope they're not sharing” – we examine the latest tensions between Washington, Moscow and Tehran. We also analyse a Ukrainian deep-strike operation that raised fresh questions about Russian air defences after a loitering drone was able to film the attack. Then we bring updates on Ukrainian counterattacks in the south, where two operations now appear to have pushed around 10 kilometres into Russian lines, and hear a final dispatch from Adélie in Ukraine.

This morning, Iran named Mojtaba Khamanei, the man President Trump said would be unacceptable in the post, as its new leader. The immediate market reaction was a spike in the price of Brent crude oil to nearly USD120 per barrel, and a pronounced selloff in Asian stock markets. These moves have since reversed somewhat after the Financial Times wrote that G7 leaders will have talks with the International Energy Agency today regarding a possible release of energy reserves. Richard Tang, Head of Research Hong Kong explains why positioning is driving Asian equity markets more than fundamentals right now, and looks beyond the fog of war to identify attractive Asian equity sectors. And Mensur Pocinci, Head of Technical Analysis focuses on what the charts reveal when it comes to the price of oil and the trajectory of US equity markets.(00:00) - Introduction: Jan Bopp, Product & Investment Content (01:18) - Markets wrap-up: Bernadette Anderko, Product & Investment Content (06:17) - Asia update: Richard Tang, Head of Research Hong Kong (11:27) - Technical Analysis update: Mensur Pocinci, Head of Technical Analysis (15:13) - Closing remarks: Jan Bopp, Product & Investment Content Would you like to support this show?

Hyckleri, naivitet och risken för civilisationens undergång

Vid det här laget borde jag inte förvånas över hycklerier av detta slag, men jag blir fortfarande förbluffad när jag ser folk som spenderat de senaste fyra åren på att fördöma en stormakts attack mot en suverän nation nu stötta en stormakts attack mot en suverän nation.Rationalisera det hur du vill, det är fortfarande samma brott. Eller var ärlig och erkänn att du inte har principer, utan snarare ett lag.Krig dödar civila, oavsett vem som skickar bomberna och vilken regim de är tänkta att störta. Om du stöttar kriget som verktyg för att uppnå regimskifte betyder det att du accepterar ett stort antal döda civila som inte har något att göra med regimen du vill ha bort. Man måste knäcka några barns skallar för att göra en omelett, antar jag.Jag vet att många har lidit i decennier under regimen i Iran. Flera av mina närmaste vänner är i Sverige just på grund av det lidande som regimen orsakat. Men om man tror att ett anfallskrig kommer att minska lidandet och leda till frihet och demokrati så undrar jag vilken sten man har bott under de senaste decennierna. Precis som folk häromdagen dansade över Ayatolla Khameinis död så dansade irakier, libyer och syrier när Saddam Hussein, Muammar Gaddafi och Bashar al-Assad föll. Hur fria och demokratiska är dessa länder idag?Med ovan vill jag inte ta ifrån någon deras glädje över att en förtryckare har fallit, men jag vill i allra högsta grad påpeka hur naivt det är att se avrättningen av en 86-årig spirituell ledare av externa makter som något positivt, om fred och frihet är vad man är ute efter. Man behöver inte vara ett strategiskt geni för att inse att det troligtvis kommer att leda till mer kaos att bomba någon som i princip var påven för hundratals miljoner människor — under ramadan dessutom.Att just kaos är målet för de beslutsfattare som startade kriget råder inga tvivel om. Ta det inte från mig utan från Financial Times reportage med Danny Citrinowicz, Iranexpert och senior forskare på Tel Aviv's Institute for National Security Studies:Summarising the Israeli government's position, Citrinowicz said: “If we can have a coup, great. If we can have people on the streets, great. If we can have a civil war, great. Israel couldn't care less about the future… [or] the stability of Iran.Lika naiv som tron att ett anfallskrig ska leda till fred och frihet i Iran, är tron om att samma krig ska leda till en säkrare framtid för Israel. Vi är bara en vecka in i kriget och har redan sett hela regionen brinna, med explosioner i Iran, Israel, Irak, Jordanien, Saudiarabien, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, Förenade Arabemiraten, Qatar, Libanon, Cypern och Azerbajdzjan. Hur israeliska makthavare inbillar sig att deras land inte kommer att slukas av den löpeld som sprider sig över regionen är bortom mig.Sist men inte minst har vi USA, vars imperium redan har vippat på randen till kollaps under en längre period och numera drar sina sista spasmiska suckar. Den krympande stormakten är för svag, polariserad och krigstrött för att kunna uppbåda en markinvasion av den skala som hade krävts i ett land som är nästan fyra gånger större än Irak, med en dubbelt så stor population, så istället parkerar man sina hangarskepp på ett tryggt avstånd och bränner slut på sina distansrobotar och bomber innan man lämnar ännu ett fiasko bakom sig och återvänder hem svagare och med ett ännu sämre anseende än tidigare.Inget land i världen, glöm Mellanöstern, kommer någonsin att ta amerikanska löften om beskydd seriöst efter att de med svansen mellan benen lämnat sina militärbaser i Gulfstaterna och låtit missilerna regna över sina så kallade “vänner”.Varför gör världens stormakt något så uppenbart destruktivt?Svaret blir tydligt om man följer pengarna och de senaste decenniernas mönster. Kongressledamot Thomas Massie uttryckte det bäst i augusti 2024:Den vinstdrivande militärindustrin skapar incitament för krig som i Julian Assanges ord inte är menade att vinnas, utan snarare att pågå för evigt. Där du och jag ser död och förödelse, ser vapentillverkarna och det komplexa nätverk som de är en del av enbart dollartecken. Varenda explosion i Mellanöstern, Ukraina och andra länder långt borta från deras trygga hem, representerar nya klirr i kassan för aktieägarna.Om det pågående kriget i Iran skrev journalisten Nancy Youssef:Om jag framstår som mer irriterad och pessimistisk än vanligt så har du uppfattat mitt tonläge helt korrekt. Beslutet att inleda detta katastrofala krig verkar ha tagits helt och hållet baserat på propaganda snarare än fakta. Tusentals människor är redan döda, bland dem många civila, och följderna kommer att vara dramatiska för regionen och hela världen.Och då har vi inte ens berört den rimliga risken för att kärnvapen används om Irans regim inte faller och rusar mot berikning, om en oberäknelig Trump vaknar på dåligt humör eller om israeliska makthavare känner sig inträngda i ett hörn.Våra öden ligger i händerna på en grupp blodtörstiga fanatiker fast i en kukmätartävling, samtidigt som nyttiga idioter i hela världen hejar på när tävlingen uttrycks i krig och förödelse.Jag önskar att jag kunde avsluta denna utläggning på ett mer positivt sätt, men tills vi slutar svälja den propaganda som driver världen mot konflikt så ser jag tyvärr inget ljus i tunneln annat än från ett skenande tåg, lastat med vapen kraftiga nog att sätta stopp för hela det vackra experiment som vi kallar för civilisation.

Er is weer een aflevering van Europa Draait Door en wat een week om te bespreken. Voor het eerst lijkt de zwartgalligheid van Arend Jan niet overdreven. De oorlog in Iran escaleert met de dag, en Europa? Dat staat aan de zijlijn. Premier Jetten noemt internationaal recht 'lastig in dit soort situaties', Merz zegt dat het beoordelen ernaar 'weinig effect zal hebben'. Alleen de Spaanse premier Sánchez spreekt zich hardop uit, en krijgt prompt een dreigement van Trump. Europa-correspondent Kysia Hekster ontleedt de Europese verlamming: waarom is het continent dat normaal hamert op internationaal recht nu muisstil? Midden-Oostenexpert Abdou Bouzerda waarschuwt: als wij niet oppassen zitten we straks niet op de achterbank, maar onder het wiel. Daarnaast aandacht voor de influencers die halsoverkop Dubai proberen te verlaten.

What does it take to lead one of the world's most powerful banks when the global financial system is on the brink of collapse? As CEO for Goldman Sachs from 2006 to 2018, Lloyd Blankfein was at the helm as the global financial system teetered on collapse. He successfully steered the company through the most devastating financial crisis of our age, and stabilised its ascent for the following decade. His story is one of decisive global leadership at the top of one of the most competitive and successful corporations in the world.  In this episode he speaks to Lionel Barber about his journey from the public housing projects of Brooklyn to the highest level of global finance. Drawing on his new memoir, Streetwise: Getting to and Through Goldman Sachs, Blankfein revisits the decisions that defined an era, and what his long tenure taught him about leadership, human nature, financial capitalism.  Lionel Barber is a journalist and the former Editor of the Financial Times, and author of The Gambling Man. This episode is created in partnership with Guinness Global Investors, an independent British fund manager that helps both individuals and institutions harness the future drivers of growth to achieve their investment goals.

What does courage really look like in leadership?Often, we associate courage with bold gestures, fearless leaders, or decisive moments where doubt disappears.My guest in this conversation is Professor Ranjay Gulati of Harvard Business School, who challenges that assumption through his research into what he calls the surprising science of everyday courage, and shows why fear is not a flaw in leadership but a starting point.We explore why courage is a decision rather than a personality trait, how leaders can resource themselves when uncertainty rises, and the difference between thoughtful courage and reckless action. Ranjay shares stories from his research and personal experience that reveal how narrative, support squads, rituals and process help individuals and organisations act boldly with purpose.If you're facing decisions that feel uncomfortable this episode will help you build courage deliberately and use it as a practical leadership skill.“Fear is a reaction; courage is a decision” – Ranjay GulatiYou'll hear aboutWhy courage is a decision, not a traitHow fear shows up in leadership decisionsCourage versus recklessnessIndividual courage versus collective courageThe power of personal narrativeHow leaders resource themselvesSupport squads and courageous leadershipWhy courage is a team sportRituals that help manage fearBuilding courage as a muscleCommon leadership blind spots around courage About Ranjay Gulati:Ranjay Gulati is a Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School.  His pioneering work focuses on unlocking organizational and individual potential—embracing courage, nurturing purpose-driven leaders, driving growth, and transforming businesses.

Presa internațională analizează consecințele războiului împotriva Iranului, din perspectivă strategică și economică – de la prețul petrolului, la efectele asupra Rusiei și Chinei. ”Bombardând petro-monarhiile din Golf, ayatollahii au adăugat o imbecilitate strategică ideologiei lor obscurantiste”, consideră Le Figaro. Ziarul se întreabă de ce a început Iranul să bombardeze petro-monarhiile din Golf, care făcuseră tot posibilul să-l convingă pe Trump să nu intre în război. Și dacă nu ar fi fost mai inteligent să nu atace niciun stat sunnit, să-și concentreze toate atacurile împotriva Israelului și să încerce să-i incite pe predicatorii musulmani împotriva „diavolilor” sioniști. Dar ce se poate întâmpla cu prețul petrolului? Financial Times vede două scenarii:  Cum 20% din vânzările globale de petrol trec prin Strâmtoarea Ormuz, închiderea  pe termen mai lung ar provoca „un șoc monumental asupra prețurilor globale”. Citeste siTeheranul ameninţă Europa să nu se implice în războiul din Iran. "Porţile iadului se vor deschide" Prețul barilului ar putea depăși pragul de 100 de dolari, prevăd specialiștii. Piața gazelor naturale ar fi, de asemenea, afectată, intensificând și mai mult presiunile inflaționiste asupra economiilor majore, în special în Europa. Al doilea scenariu, cel mai probabil, este și cel mai puțin grav: strâmtoarea nu este complet închisă. În acest scenariu, prețul pe baril ajunge la cel puțin 80 de dolari. Un lucru este sigur: o creștere cu 10 dolari a prețului barilului „nu va schimba fundamental jocul” pentru inflație și creștere. Citeste siConflictul din Orientul Mijlociu: Franţa trimite portavionul „Charles-de-Gaulle” în Mediterană The New York Times analizează consecințele globale ale intervenției în Iran. ”Teheranul este, alături de Moscova și Beijing, un pilon al axei autocrațiilor care amenință lumea democratică în ansamblu. Acei membri ai stângii americane care îl critică pe Trump pentru că nu se opune vehement lui Vladimir Putin ar trebui cel puțin să ia în considerare faptul că Teheranul a furnizat Rusiei drone și tehnologii. Și acei conservatori americani care îl critică pe Trump pentru devierea resurselor militare din Pacific către războiul din Iran ar trebui, de asemenea, să remarce că Iranul furnizează în secret Chinei o mare parte din petrolul său. Dacă Teheranul nu va mai face parte din această axă, adversarii noștri rămași vor fi mai slabi”. Obișnuiesc Statele Unite să asasineze șefi de state? CNN constată că, odată cu uciderea lui Ali Khamenei este pentru prima dată în istoria modernă când SUA recurge la această metodă - în acest caz, colaborând cu Israelul Saddam Hussein a fost spânzurat după un proces desfășurat de autoritățile din Irak, după ce SUA au invadat țara și i-au răsturnat guvernul. Moammar Gaddafi din Libia a fost ucis după ce a fost capturat de forțele revoluționare, ajutate de o campanie multinațională de bombardamente. După al Doilea Război Mondial, aliații i-au judecat pe liderii naziști la Nürnberg. SUA a fost complice la răsturnarea și uciderea dictatorului vietnamez Ngo Dinh Diem, care anterior fusese susținut de Washington.

The Israel Defense Forces said Tuesday it had deployed troops deeper into southern Lebanon, beyond the five posts it currently holds.The expanded deployment came after Iran-backed Hezbollah began launching rockets and drones at northern Israel early Monday in response to Israel's killing of the Islamic Republic's supreme leader.12. Syria has reinforced its border with Lebanon with rocket units and thousands of troops, eight Syrian and Lebanese sources said Tuesday.13. Russia, China and Turkey on Tuesday called for an immediate end to the war launched by the US and Israel on Saturday against Iran.

In (yet another) emergency episode, Darren offers eight initial thoughts on the US and Israeli strikes on Iran and the killing of Ayatollah Khamenei. Inside Iran, the question is whether airpower and decapitation can deliver regime change when the historical record says they never have — though this case may be an outlier given how weakened the regime already was. Regionally, Iran's “drizzle” retaliation strategy is targeting Gulf states and depleting expensive US interceptors, while the munitions being consumed come directly at the expense of what the US would need in a Taiwan contingency. Globally, no country or institution has any agency to shape what happens next — and China may be the quiet winner simply by being predictable while Washington lurches between crises. On international order, Darren explores how US deterrence is simultaneously stronger on willingness but weaker on material capacity, and why the Venezuela-Greenland-Iran sequence is normalising a new and dangerous operating model for the hegemon. On Australia, he thinks the government made the right call. He finishes by asking what we're learning about Trump's emerging “anti-Powell Doctrine”, what the erosion of rules means for world politics, and what constraints — if any — exist on this new kind of American power. Australia in the World is written, hosted, and produced by Darren Lim, with research and editing this episode by Hannah Nelson and theme music composed by Rory Stenning.

This week on Media Confidential, Alan and Lionel are joined by Ailbhe Rea, political editor at the New Statesman, and George Parker, political editor of the Financial Times, for an insider's account of the Westminster “Lobby”—the exclusive group of journalists with privileged access to Britain's corridors of power.With enormous influence over political narratives, the Lobby shapes how the country understands its government. But is there a danger in being too close to power? The four discuss the Lobby at its best—forensic, rigorous and brutal when necessary—and at its worst, from criticisms of herd mentality to exaggerating stories.Ailbhe and George reveal how the system really works, from briefings with the prime minister's spokesperson to secretive tip-offs. They also discuss the ethics of relying on anonymous sources: does the cloak of secrecy allow smears to spread? Or is it the only way to discover what politicians are really thinking?And they make the case for why, despite its flaws, the bubble of Westminster is better off with the Lobby inside it.

It's four years this week since Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine. And by this summer the conflict will have gone on for longer than the First World War. Casualties run into the hundreds of thousands. Peace talks brokered by the US have been off and on for the past few months, with President Putin demanding that Ukraine gives Russia full control of the eastern Donbas region, including the part it does not occupy. President Zelensky refuses. Meanwhile, Ukraine has experiened one of its harshest winters as its cities and energy infrastructure have been pounded by Russian drones and missiles. Still both sides fight on in a war which has become dominated by advanced drone technology. David Aaronovitch asks his guests whether anyone is winning and when and how this war might end.

It's a sentiment shared across Europe, where leaders have cited Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the rise of Chinese power and US instability to justify substantially increased defence spending. But the rearmament consensus has so far not been accompanied by much detail on where the money needs to go or what accountability there will be for the use of this ‘hard power'. To discuss the origins and implications of Europe's militarisation, James is joined by Sam Jones, European security correspondent at the Financial Times, and Anna Stavrianakis, professor of international relations at the University of Sussex.  Read more on politics in the LRB: ⁠https://lrb.me/lrbpolitics⁠ From the LRB Subscribe to the LRB: ⁠⁠https://lrb.me/subslrbpod Close Readings podcast: ⁠https://lrb.me/crlrbpod⁠ LRB Audiobooks: ⁠https://lrb.me/audiobookslrbpod⁠ Bags, binders and more at the LRB Store: ⁠https://lrb.me/storelrbpod⁠ Get in touch: podcasts@lrb.co.uk

2026-02-16 | UPDATES #133 | Russian losses now outpacing recruitment (again) — and why Moscow is leaning harder on foreign fighters. The military math in Moscow does not add up – the tally between bodies in, bodies out. The difference between vodka fueled recruits and sunflower fodder. And for a war being fought at drone-speed and trench-distances, that's arithmetic Putin can't spin. Multiple streams of reporting and official claims over the last week — capped by fresh remarks out of Munich — point to the same brutal conclusion: Russia is bleeding manpower faster than it can refill the trenches, and it's increasingly padding the gap with foreign fighters — some recruited under false pretenses, some coerced, some simply disposable. Let's unpack what we know, what we can't independently verify, and why the Kremlin's recruitment logic is starting to look less like “strategic endurance” and more like a meat-processing plant with a military payroll department attached. ----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.gofundme.com/f/scaling-up-campaign-to-fight-authoritarian-disinformation----------A REQUEST FOR HELP!I'm heading back to Kyiv this week, to film, do research and conduct interviews.
