Podcasts about guarantees

NFC WEST PREVIEW Rams - 2:28 Seahawks - 16:09 Cardinals - 27:24 49ers - 38:09

US envoys Tom Barrack and Morgan Ortagus were in Lebanon this week to restate a key demand: Hezbollah must disarm. The latest push from Washington came with economic incentives as Mr Barrack proposed the US becomes a “substitute” to Iranian influence. The Lebanese government agreed to disarm non-state groups this month but it wants guarantees that Israel will withdraw militarily from the country. Israel says it will not de-escalate until the disarmament process begins. This puts Lebanon in a difficult position. On the one hand it wants US financial support and for the Israeli attacks to end. On the other, it must convince a defiant Hezbollah and its sponsor Iran to lay down weapons. Without a strategic plan, the consequences could be grave for the country and the wider region. In this episode of Beyond the Headlines, host Nada AlTaher speaks to The National's foreign editor, Mohamad Ali Harisi, and Nicholas Blanford, an Atlantic Council analyst in Beirut. They discuss the challenges of disarming Hezbollah and whether the US and Israel would hold up their end of the bargain.

Edition No227 | 19-08-2025 - Today's episode focuses on security guarantees – Ukraine has been here before. The Budapest Memorandum threw Ukraine under the bus, stripping away its deterrent weapons, while offering illusory guarantees on security. These proved to be toothless and worthless when Russia invaded. 2025, and are we back to the same exercise of making false promises to Ukraine, as it continues to fact an existential threat to its existence. We ask what can genuinely deter Russian aggression, and do Western powers have the will and capacity to follow through on what is required. We explore the recent White House summit between Zelenskyy, European leaders, and Trump—focusing on, historical security pitfalls, deterrence theory and practice and the precarious path ahead.What does it really mean when Ukraine—and the world—seeks security guarantees in the shadow of shattered treaties and lies by Russia and a history of betrayal by Ukraine's allies. ----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------SOURCES: The Guardian: “Wartime crisis meeting… Article 5‑like security guarantees” (The Washington Post)Term of “prepared and warmly engaging” (The Guardian)$90B weapons purchase, Article 5‑style and reassurance force (New York Post)Details on U.S. “very good protection” vagueness (ABC News)European Sky Shield (Wikipedia)Coalition of the willing from London Summit (Wikipedia)U.S.–Israel security assistance long-term model (U.S. Department of State)Budapest Memorandum context history (Wikipedia)Broken treaties and need for deterrence referenced across sources (Wikipedia)----------TRUCK FUNDRAISER - GET A SILICON CURTAIN NAFO PATCH:Together with our friends at LIFT99 Kyiv Hub (the NAFO 69th Sniffing Brigade), we are teaming up to provide 2nd Battalion of 5th SAB with a pickup truck that they need for their missions.

Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelenskyy has been to the White House before in what became an infamous encounter with Donald Trump. This time he took an entourage of European leaders as backup as the US president pushes for a quick end to the war in Ukraine. At the heart of the talks are security guarantees from the US and a possible meeting between Zelenskyy and Russia's Vladimir Putin.  Today, former US Ambassador to Ukraine John Herbst on why it could actually be a step forward towards peace. Featured: John Herbst, fmr US Ambassador to Ukraine and senior director of the Atlantic Council's Eurasia Center

A very different kind of meeting took place between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and US President Donald Trump in the Oval Office. It was a stark contrast to their previous encounter at the end of February, which many described as an ambush. What has changed in the past six months on both the Ukrainian and American sides? And what do these changes mean for the future of the Russian war, peace negotiations, and the security of Europe? I discussed these and other questions with Julia Kazdobina, the head of the Ukrainian Foundation for Security Studies. Listen to our conversation.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: 6:05pm- Prior to Monday's multilateral meeting at the White House, President Donald Trump was caught on a hot mic telling Emmanuel Macron: “I think [Vladimir Putin] wants to make a deal for me, you understand that? As crazy as it sounds.” 6:30pm- In a post to Truth Social, President Donald Trump wrote: “I had a very good meeting with distinguished guests, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, of Ukraine, President Emmanuel Macron, of France, President Alexander Stubb, of Finland, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, of Italy, Prime Minister Keir Starmer, of the United Kingdom, Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, Friedrich Merz, President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, and Secretary General of NATO, Mark Rutte, in the White House, which ended in a further meeting in the Oval Office. During the meeting we discussed Security Guarantees for Ukraine, which Guarantees would be provided by the various European Countries, with a coordination with the United States of America. Everyone is very happy about the possibility of PEACE for Russia/Ukraine. At the conclusion of the meetings, I called President Putin, and began the arrangements for a meeting, at a location to be determined, between President Putin and President Zelenskyy. After that meeting takes place, we will have a Trilat, which would be the two Presidents, plus myself. Again, this was a very good, early step for a War that has been going on for almost four years. Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, are coordinating with Russia and Ukraine. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” 6:40pm- Appearing on NBC News, former U.S. Ambassador to Russia during the Obama Administration Michael McFaul praised Donald Trump for his efforts to negotiate a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine.

In this week's Myth Busting Monday episode, Heather unpacks the exhausting and toxic myth that we must constantly prove ourselves to be worthy and successful. Through personal stories and hard truths, Heather reveals how the relentless chase to prove yourself fuels anxiety, imposter syndrome, and that nagging ‘not enough' feeling.Listeners will hear about the self-development hamster wheel—endless courses and gurus promising to fix what isn't broken—and why these often mask the real issue: lack of authentic self-acceptance. Heather offers practical insights on how to recognize this pattern and shares a tiny experiment designed to help you start breaking free and embrace the power of simply being yourself.This episode is essential listening for anyone trapped in the validation loop who wants to reclaim their inner peace, power, and joy. Tune in and start choosing happy today!Takeaways: Proving yourself is like running on a hamster wheel, exhausting and unproductive, so stop it! Feeling the need to prove your worth often leads to chronic anxiety and stress, yikes! The chase for self-improvement programs can distract you from realizing you're already enough. Authenticity is your superpower; being yourself is way more powerful than performing for approval. When you stop trying to prove yourself, you unlock your real strengths and abilities. Remember, you don't need to earn your place here; you already belong just as you are.

In this episode, The Annuity Man discussed:  Threading the needle with volatility Freedom from volatility Annuities are the haystack  Time to secure guarantees    Key Takeaways:  Threading the needle to get market returns makes you dependent upon so much unknown. You're dependent on world markets, geopolitical events, and meltdowns that are impossible to predict.  A lot of people can retire from their jobs and the market, and they should; those who can't yet should make it a goal to do that and be free from being dependent on volatility.  There's no threading the needle for principal protection; there's no finding the needle in a haystack for lifetime income. You don't need to find a needle; you need the haystack. Use an annuity to have the highest contractual guarantee.  What phase of your life are you in right now? If you're in the no-go stage, then it's time to stop losing sleep over the markets, and it's time to secure guarantees.    "Investing in markets a lot of times is like surfing the side of a cruise ship. Sometimes you're going to catch a wave right beside that cruise ship, but a lot of times, you're going to get sucked under the boat." —  Stan The Annuity Man.    Connect with The Annuity Man:  Website: http://theannuityman.com/  Email: Stan@TheAnnuityMan.com  Book: Owner's Manuals: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/how-do-annuities-work YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCXKKxvVslbeGAlEc5sra2g  Get a Quote Today: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/annuity-calculator!
