आजकल एक चलन है, लोग अपने सोशल मीडिया हैंडल्स पर अपने Pronouns लिखते हैं. He, She, Them. Trump का बस चले तो वो अपने Pronouns में Dealmaker लिख दें. उन्हें Deal करवाने की चाहत ही नहीं, Addiction सा है. इससे हम सब वाकिफ़ हैं. उनकी इसी चाहत के चलते पिछले 5 दिनों में Geopolitics के लिहाज़ से दो बड़ी मीटिंग्स हुईं. दोनों अमेरिका में. मगर एक दूर अलास्का के पास और दूसरी Washington DC में. दोनों मीटिंग्स में Common थे Donald Trump जिनका ज़ोर आजकल Russia-Ukraine war को रुकवाने की ओर है. हमने पिछले एपिसोड में Prof. Amitabh Singh से पूछा भी था कि Alaska Meeting में क्या हो सकता है तो उन्होंने कहा था कि युद्ध रोकने की तरफ प्रयास तो होता दिख रहा है. और फिर ये मीटिंग हो गई. आपने भी देखी हैं ट्रंप-पुतिन की वो तस्वीरें जिनमें वो गर्मजोशी से मिलते नज़र आए. ट्रंप वादा करके गए थे कि Ceasefire करवाकर लौटूंगा. लेकिन किस हद तक अपने दावे पर अमल कर पाए. ये कहना मुश्किल है. क्योंकि इसके बाद कल हुई Washington DC में Zelensky और Trump की मीटिंग, जिसमें Zelensky European Leaders की पलटन लेकर पहुंचे. तो करेंगे इन दोनों मीटिंग्स और इनके Consequences को Decode Padhaku Nitin World Affairs के इस एपिसोड में. जहां हमारे साथ हैं. Dr. Manish Dhabade, Associate Professor हैं JNU के Centre for International Politics, Organisation & Disarmament में. Diplomacy की बात आप हम समय समय पर करते रहते हैं. मगर मनीष जी की PhD ही Diplomacy और Disarmament पर है.

After nearly eight decades of on-again-off-again conflict, India and Pakistan neared the brink of all-out war last spring. The intense, four-day conflict was an unsettling reminder of the dangers of military escalation between two nuclear-armed adversaries. Though the ceasefire was reached and both sides claimed victory, Delhi and Islamabad are still on edge and tensions remain high. On the GZERO World Podcast, former Pakistani Foreign Minister Hina Khar joins Ian Bremmer to discuss Pakistan's response to India's strikes, which she believes were unjustified, and why Pakistan needs to defend itself from further aggression.One fifth of the world's population lives on the Indian subcontinent, and Khar says putting them at stake because of a political conflict is dangerous because “you do not know how quickly you can go up the escalation ladder.” Bremmer and Khar also discuss the US role in mediating the conflict with India, Pakistan's domestic and economic challenges, its strategic partnership with China, and the dangers for global security if the world abandons a rules-based international order.“As someone who was representing this country as foreign minister, I used to wonder, why were we reduced to eating grass to become a nuclear power?” Khar says, “And now, that is the only thing providing deterrence and security against a country which feels it can attack us anytime, any day.”Host: Ian BremmerGuest: Hina Khar Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.

Today we talk with Samar Al-Bulushi about her rich and complex work on Kenya, which, across multiple scales of time and place, discovers how the War on Terror both tapped into colonial ideologies of the past and present-day political calculations at the intersection of the local and global. We find out how the War has taken many different forms that often escape the eye—embedded as they are in structures of feelings and new practices that were instilled as Kenya maneuvers its different roles as war-maker and pacifier, independent state and partner with the US. We end with an important update on Kenya since the book's publication, which has seen a popular uprising and state repression. We speak about the roles of civil society and international organizations in this new historical moment.Samar Al-Bulushi is an Associate Professor of Anthropology at UC Irvine. Her book, War-Making as Worldmaking: Kenya, the United States, and the War on Terror, was published by Stanford University Press in November 2024. She is a non-resident fellow at the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft and previously served as contributing editor for Africa is a Country.

On June 13th, Israel launched attacks on several military and nuclear facilities in Iran, marking the beginning of a 12-day war between the two countries. The United States followed with targeted strikes on Iranian nuclear sites to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear power and posing a threat to regional and global stability. China's involvement in the conflict was limited to condemning the Israeli and US use of military force and calling for de-escalation. Beijing offered only rhetorical support for Tehran. To discuss what the Israel-Iran war reveals about China's relationship with Iran, its evolving strategy in the Middle East, and the broader implications for US-China competition, we are joined by Yun Sun on the podcast today. Yun is a Senior Fellow, co-Director of the East Asia Program and Director of the China Program at the Stimson Center.

On this week's episode, I'm joined by Daniel Drezner—cohost of the Space the Nation podcast with Ana Marie Cox and proprietor of the Drezner's World Substack—to discuss the eternal popularity of zombies (most recently via the hit movie 28 Years Later, which I reviewed here) and the continued relevance of his book, Theories of International Politics and Zombies, which is now in its third edition. We chatted about the ways different political theories might confront waves of the undead and discussed how this book can help explain basic problems of international relations to even lay audiences. If you enjoyed this episode, I hope you share it with a friend! (And, as a bonus, here's a link to a video starring Dan, me, and Across the Movie Aisle's Alyssa Rosenberg that asked what Star Wars would have looked like if it had been shot in the style of Ken Burns's Civil War. Enjoy!)

When you think about European credit investing, most people assume it's only for the big shops with billions under management. Agata Dornan, Founder & CIO of Chepstow Lane, is here to challenge that, and she's doing it with smarts, grit, and real talk about what it really takes to succeed.Agata's path to launching her own boutique wasn't a straight line.

In recent years, security actors have become increasingly concerned with health issues. Bodily Fluids, Fluid Bodies and International Politics: Feminist Technoscience, Biopolitics and Security (Bristol University Press, 2024) by Dr. Jenn Hobbs reveals how understandings of race, sexuality and gender are produced/reproduced through healthcare policy. Analysing the plasma of paid Mexicana/o donors in the US, airport vomit in Ebola epidemics and the semen of soldiers with genitourinary injuries, this book shows how security practices focus upon governing bodily fluids. Using a variety of critical scholarship – feminist technoscience, queer studies and critical race studies – this book uses fluids to reveal unequal distributions of life and death. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.
