Central Asia is not a place that most Westerners know or think about very often. But now that I've been there, my ears perk up on the rare instances when it makes the news, as was the case on two separate occasions over the past few weeks. In light of recent developments in Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan, I re-play excerpts of some episodes I featured several years ago on the first season of Far From Home, where I documented an 11,000 mile road trip my friends and I took from the UK to Mongolia in a couple of really tiny cars. If you're new to the program, I recommend going back to the very beginning of my podcast feed and bingeing the entire story of my journey. In particular, if you want to listen to longer versions of the stories I played on today's show, here are the links: “Kazakhstan: One Surprise After Another” (ep. 19) “Turkmenistan: Just Plain Weird” (ep. 11) - go to that link also to see a video of my friends and I approaching the giant fire pit in the middle of Turkmenistan's Karakum Desert ————- On Far From Home, award-winning public radio journalist Scott Gurian documents fascinating stories from far-flung places like Iran, Chernobyl, and Mongolia.

In Episode 228 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Kazakhstan-based journalist Joanna Lillis, author of “Dark Shadows: Inside the Secret World of Kazakhstan,” about the recent protests and unrest that unfolded in Kazakhstan over the past two weeks and how this ties into the larger geopolitical chess match currently underway in Eastern Europe. This is the multi-polar world in action. It's no longer some theoretical thing that we've read about or that we're moving towards—we are in it. This is the world we live in, and in this world, everything is up for grabs. Every crisis, every border skirmish, every negotiation is an opportunity for any and all of the major powers to change the status quo and to change the rules of the game to their advantage. And this starts with taking control of the story and telling a narrative about events before the facts emerge and before people have had a chance to even begin to form an educated opinion about whatever it is that's happening. Today's episode is meant to provide you with a sense of where and how the events in Kazakhstan fit into this new global disorder of nation states, non-state actors, mercenaries, agitators, hackers—pretty much everyone interested in exercising influence on an international stage that is fluid and where power is constantly up for grabs. The world is becoming ever more complex and if you want to exercise a level of agency over your own sense of reality and be anything other than a spectator in someone else's story you need to step back from all the noise and all the hustles and exercise a level of informed skepticism without simply resorting to questioning everything and therefore believing in nothing. This is what Hidden Forces is all about.

Connaissez-vous notre site ? www.lenouvelespritpublic.frUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée au studio l'Arrière-boutique le 14 janvier 2022.Avec cette semaine :Nicolas Baverez, essayiste et avocat.Akram Belkaïd, journaliste au Monde diplomatique.Béatrice Giblin, directrice de la revue Hérodote et fondatrice de l'Institut Français de Géopolitique.Michaela Wiegel, correspondante à Paris de la Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.LE RETOUR DE L'EMPIRE RUSSE ? Projection de 3 000 hommes au Kazakhstan en 2022, après que des troubles ont éclaté à Almaty, interposition militaire entre Arménie et Azerbaïdjan en 2021, relance de l'union avec la Biélorussie en 2020, déstabilisation de l'Ukraine depuis 2014 ou encore guerre avec la Géorgie en 2008 : la Fédération de Russie réinvestit militairement, économiquement et militairement plusieurs anciennes Républiques Socialistes Soviétiques et entretient des tensions militaires en Baltique via l'enclave de Kaliningrad, en Mer Noire à partir de la Crimée annexée en 2014, dans le Caucase grâce à sa médiation après le nouveau conflit du Haut-Karabakh en 2020. Cependant, la Fédération de Russie ne dispose pas des ressources économiques, militaires et politiques de l'URSS. Économie rentière dépendante des exportations d'hydrocarbures, de minerais et de technologies militaires, la Russie ne maîtrise pas son destin économique, son PIB est inférieur à celui de l'Italie, tandis que son déclin démographique constant réduit sa croissance potentielle.En dépit ou à cause de ce contexte, le 17 décembre, la Fédération de Russie a officialisé son projet de traité avec l'Otan et les États-Unis au sujet de ses « garanties de sécurité ». Poutine a exigé des Américains et des Européens de revenir à la situation de 1997, lorsque l'Alliance atlantique n'avait pas encore accueilli parmi ses membres la Pologne et les autres pays d'Europe centrale et balte. Il a proposé deux projets de traités en ce sens, l'un avec Washington et l'autre avec l'Otan. Moscou réclame l'assurance que l'Otan n'admettra plus aucun membre parmi les anciennes républiques de l'Union soviétique (autrement dit, l'Ukraine et la Géorgie), mais aussi la promesse que l'Alliance va réduire ses activités militaires en Europe centrale et dans les pays Baltes. La Russie exige en outre que les États-Unis ne déploient aucun missile à courte et moyenne portée en Europe. Devant la presse internationale le 23 décembre, Poutine a enjoint aux Occidentaux d'accepter son projet « immédiatement, maintenant». Pour appuyer sa revendication, il a massé des dizaines de milliers de soldats à la frontière de l'Ukraine, plus de 100 000 selon les Américains.Des prétentions jugées « inacceptables » par les Occidentaux, qui refusent a priori toute concession non réciproque. Après deux sommets Poutine-Biden (dont le deuxième, le 7 décembre dernier, par vidéoconférence), la rencontre lundi à Genève entre les vice-ministres des Affaires étrangères russe et américain, Sergueï Riabkov et Wendy Sherman, s'apparentait à une reprise de contact afin d'amorcer une désescalade de la crise ukrainienne. Elle ne semble pas dans l'immédiat avoir permis de faire bouger les lignes. Ces discussions ont été suivies par une réunion Otan-Russie mercredi à Bruxelles, puis une rencontre jeudi à Vienne de l'Organisation pour la sécurité et la coopération en Europe, plateforme de dialogue Est-Ouest issue de la guerre froide. « Je ne crois pas que nous verrons des avancées cette semaine », a déclaré le secrétaire d'État américain, Antony Blinken.***LE RETOUR DU NUCLÉAIRE « Non seulement l'Europe n'est pas près de se passer d'énergie nucléaire, mais elle va même devoir investir massivement dans la modernisation de ses centrales au cours des prochaines décennies » a indiqué dans un entretien au Journal du Dimanche le commissaire européen chargé du marché intérieur, Thierry Breton. Il a chiffré à 500 milliards d'euros le montant des investissements nécessaires d'ici à 2050, pour développer les centrales de nouvelle génération, sans lesquelles l'Europe ne pourrait atteindre son objectif de neutralité carbone d'ici trente ans. D'où la nécessité pour l'industrie nucléaire d'avoir accès aux financements européens aux meilleures conditions possibles. C'est l'enjeu du projet de « taxonomie » dévoilé le 31 décembre par la Commission européenne, qui prévoit d'inclure le nucléaire parmi les sources d'énergie « durables » contribuant à la réduction des émissions de CO2 et pouvant bénéficier, à ce titre, d'investissements publics et privés à taux préférentiel. Cette disposition est soumise à conditions : les nouvelles centrales devront avoir obtenu un permis de construire avant 2045, les travaux permettant de prolonger la durée de vie des centrales existantes devront avoir été autorisés avant 2040. Des garanties en matière de traitement des déchets et de démantèlement des installations nucléaires en fin de vie sont également exigées. La proposition officielle de l'exécutif européen est attendue pour le 18 janvier. Les États membres auront alors quatre mois pour s'opposer au texte. La France compte lancer la construction d'un nouveau parc de réacteurs EPR. Elle a donc mis a mis tout son poids dans la balance à Bruxelles. Elle tire aujourd'hui 70 % de son électricité du nucléaire, mais son parc de 56 réacteurs est vieillissant : 36 d'entre eux ont plus de 35 ans. L'objectif affiché par l'actuel gouvernement est de réduire cette part à 50 % du mix énergétique en 2025. Les nouveaux réacteurs nucléaires que la France envisage de construire pourraient faire l'objet d'un dépôt de dossiers en 2023, pour une mise en service « en 2035-2037 ». EDF propose la construction de six nouveaux réacteurs de type EPR en France sur trois sites, un projet que le groupe évalue à environ 50 milliards d'euros en tenant compte d'une intervention de l'État. Cette semaine, EDF a averti d'un nouveau retard d'au moins 6 mois dans la livraison de l'EPR de Flamanville, initialement prévue en 2012. Ce nouveau retard va engendrer un surcoût supplémentaire de 300 millions d'euros. Au total, un coût multiplié par six, à près de 20 milliards d'euros selon la Cour des comptes qui ne cesse d'alerter sur la nécessité de revoir le chiffrage de cette technologie. Dans son dernier rapport, publié en décembre, elle insistait sur la nécessaire prise en compte de tous les coûts de production avant de décider de choix cruciaux en matière énergétique.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Professor Luca Anceschi discusses recent events in Kazakhstan. We will never know if it was a revolution because the violence that ensued stopped the natural organic evolution of the protest movement into something that could have changed the political system. It's been a good week for Putin and a watershed moment for Kazakh-Russia relations. We're […]

Kazakhstan was a name neither on the lips or even on the radar of most in the West – that is, until just over a week ago. Given it shares a 1,700km border with Russia, and its neighbor on the other side is China, you can see just what attracted certain powers to take an interest in the vast, landlocked nation. A giant country with a tiny population, it's mineral rich, abounding in both oil and gas. It's not the first time there's been an uprising in Kazakhstan, however, although last time, Tony Blair was hired to help the regime spin its way out of it. Now the tables have turned and the tectonic plates have shifted. We invited Bryan McDonald, a journalist based in Moscow, to help make sense of it all. She's survived being marooned on an island with adventurer Bear Grylls, but probably more remarkably, she survived a long and eventful rock'n'roll marriage to a Rolling Stone. Jo Wood was fast-living guitarist Ronnie's wife from the 1970s until about a decade ago – a story she documents in her memoir, ‘Stoned'. It's full of photographs and memories of a life on the road, offering a behind-the-scenes look at a legendary rock band on tour. She now lives a far quieter life and joined Sputnik to tell us more.

On this edition of Business Weekly, we're looking at the US inflation rate. It has hit 7% year on year, the largest rise since 1982. Used car prices and food costs are shooting up. We hear from Wells Fargo Economist Sarah Watt House and Gerald Daniels, an Associate Professor of Economics at Howard University who specialises in the economics of inequality. The BBC's Ed Butler looks at the recent protests in Kazakhstan and we have a look inside the UK trials into psychedelic drugs for patients suffering with depression. Plus, we browse the shelves of ultra rare whisky, and hear why, and how, some parts of the Scottish industry are booming. The BBC's Elizabeth Hotson talks to both keen collectors, and dedicated producers. Business Weekly is presented by Sasha Twining and produced by Clare Williamson.

There have been nationwide protests in Kazakhstan recently and the Western media did what they always do: show a few pictures of destruction and ignore the cause of the people in the streets. With Russian troops coming in to ‘maintain order' and a ban on the widely used mobile internet it's very hard to tell what is going to happen next. This week on Black Diplomats Terrell talks to two experts who are from the Kazakh region and know firsthand the frustrations that are driving the largely peaceful protests. Dr Diana T. Kudaibergenova is a lecturer and author who specializes in Central Asia, and Dr. Asel Doolotkeldieva teaches graduate courses in Political Science at the OSCE Academy in Bishkek. They're both keen observers of the post-Soviet struggles in the region and perfect guests for Black Diplomats. Thank you for listening!

With all the domestic insanity we're understandably focused on, it's easy to neglect what's happening in foreign policy -- Ukraine and Kazakhstan seem so remote to us, after all. But the lizard people could be cooking up a real disaster here, and we need to know what's going on.

Geopolitical analyst Pepe Escobar discusses the violent coup attempt in Kazakhstan, and its crucial importance as an ally of Russia and the center of China's Belt and Road Initiative. He also addresses US, British, and Turkish meddling, and why this massive and misunderstood country is suddenly at the heart of the new cold war. PART 1 OF 2

Britain's royal family is scandalized by allegations against Prince Andrew, and the Queen took a firm stance by kicking him out of the royal family. Vladimir Putin sending soldiers into Kazakhstan quelled violent protests there, and now Russian troops are withdrawing. But history shows Putin is likely to remain in this former Soviet state as long as he finds it useful. As Iran nuclear talks proceed, the Biden administration appears to be bracing itself for negotiations to break down and for Iran to acquire nuclear weapons, by blaming Donald Trump. We also talk about initial military moves from the new German government, Iran's plans to expand as a naval power, Russia warning the U.S. that it could deploy its military to Cuba, Michelle Obama's plan to recruit a million new Democratic voters, and a new report on inflation in the United States showing the dollar is in deep trouble.

What exactly happened last week in Kazakhstan? This is a question that many people have. Was this a genuine protest, or a western-led American jab in Russia's soft underbelly? Was this a working-class movement or yet another post-Soviet attempt at a color revolution? It appears that there was a little bit of everything. The context is one of deep contradictions in Kazakhstan's ruling class and society as a whole. Boyan Stanislavski and Maria Cernat carefully examine the chronology of last week's events in Kazakhstan, highlighting the most doubtful moments and carefully explaining what conclusions can be drawn based on facts that are now public record. The hosts of "On the Barricades" also mention some possibilities for which there is only circumstantial evidence and which cannot be proven beyond a reasonable doubt at this time.

Inflation hit an annual rate of 7% in December, which means that American Millennials and younger have never seen prices rise as fast as they did in 2021. 5) SCOTUS delay forces large employers to comply with vaccine mandate; 4) Inflation in US hits 40-year high; 3) Russia-led coalition withdraws troops from Kazakhstan; 2) Special Forces exercise to train US soldiers to overthrow “illegitimate government” kicks off Jan. 23; 1) Wall Street Journal runs op-ed arguing that Hillary Clinton could be Democratic nominee in 2024.

In this week's episode, A'ndre and Ryan talk about the political implications of two crises in the UK. Boris Johnson is in hot water for throwing a party amidst strict public health orders and Prince Andrew has been stripped of his Royal titles as the sex abuse case against him continues in the US. They also discuss recent developments (or lack thereof) in US-Russia talks over Ukraine and the situation in Kazakhstan following the Russia-led stability operation.

Danny and Derek discuss Boris Johnson's problems in the UK, US/Russia/Europe talks, the situation in Kazakhstan, the Saudi-Hezbollah feud, and the decline of the Saudis. They are then joined by Djene Bajalan, assistant professor of history at Missouri State University, to continue their miniseries on the history of the Kurds. In this episode, the boys discuss Kurdish history during the long nineteenth century. Become a patron today! www.patreon.com/americanprestige

There's a lot going on in Russia's near-abroad, the countries on the periphery of the Russian Federation. There's a war brewing in Ukraine, with talks in Geneva between Russia and the West seeming to fail this week. There are also Russian troops in Kazakhstan, there at the invitation of the autocratic Kazakh government in response to protests over fuel prices.To check in on the situation, Benjamin Wittes sat down on Lawfare Live with Alina Polyakova of the Center for European Policy Analysis; Alex Vindman, the Pritzker Military Fellow at Lawfare; Ambassador William Courtney, who served as ambassador to Kazakhstan; and Dmitri Alperovitch, the founder of the Silverado Policy Accelerator. They talked about what's going on in Kazakhstan, the failure of the diplomatic process in Geneva, and the war that seems to be coming in Ukraine.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.

Russian-led forces are leaving the Central Asian country after days of unrest over the rise of gas prices, corruption, and inequality. 160 people have been killed and about 12,000 have been arrested, according to authorities. Many don't know the whereabouts of their loved ones.  President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev claimed the unrest was an attempted coup d'etat performed by foreign-trained “bandits and terrorists.” This week, he named a new prime minister and promised to unveil a political reform package by September of this year, but will that be enough for protesters?

Were the events in Kazakhstan a popular workers uprising, a "Colored Revolution", or a manifestation of power struggles within the Kazakh establishment? Or all of the above? The Barricade's Boyan Stanislavski and Maria Cernat discuss the general political realities in Kazakhstan today, as well as the fundamental premises for such violent events to have occurred.

A wonderful returning guest tonight in the form of Mitchell Gerber (StopOrganHarvesting.com), who has dedicated his life to exposing and fighting the Communist Chinese government's horrendous practices of slavery, forced organ harvesting, human experimentation, and censorship. But the world has changed so much since the last time we spoke: COVID measures and the upcoming Olympics in Beijing are adding a few more layers to the fight. Mitchel will be speaking with us live from his home base in Vietnam, where has kept himself dangerously close to the action. In the second half, we should have time for calls, and plenty of follow-ups on last night's conversation about Russia, Kazakhstan, NATO, and who knows what else.

This week, Alan, Quinta and Scott were joined by three-peat guest Lawfare executive editor Natalie Orpett! They talked through some of the week's biggest national security news, including:“What's Almaty You, Eh?” Russia recently deployed forces to nearby Kazakhstan to aid an allied government in putting down a popular uprising. Will this have ramifications for the possible conflict over Ukraine? And what does it say about Russia's regional strategy?“He's Talking About Voldemort, Right?” Last week, President Biden commemorated the anniversary of the Jan. 6 insurrection with some strong words for his predecessor, without ever actually naming him. Does this signal a strategic shift in how Democrats are taking on threats to American democracy—and is it a good one? “Faceboo(galoo).” The sister of a police officer killed by a member of the far-right “boogaloo boys” is suing Meta, the newly renamed parent company of Facebook, for promoting the group's content and connecting potential members through its content algorithms. Could this represent a way around Section 230 protections? And what would the ramifications be for other social media platforms?For object lessons, Quinta called out Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch for recently declining to wear a mask at oral arguments. Alan drew the listeners' attention to a recent story of imperfect revenge: a shop owner who is now facing charges of retaliation for dumping 91,500 pennies covered in oil on the driveway of a former employee who claimed not to have received his final paycheck. Scott celebrated the fact that his prayers for a caffeinated cocktail had been answered but pointed towards what he finds to be an even better solution: coffee and Averna. And finally, Natalie noted the new metaphors for climate change that she'd discovered on recently re-reading the children's classic, "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs."

It's a country few Americans have heard of, but Kazakhstan is going through political unrest that should make everyone sit up and take notice. With Russians on the doorstep and a bevy of strategic resources on the line, there's a lot at stake."[Kazakhstan] has about 40% of the world's uranium. It has lots of oil and gas and big U.S. companies like Chevron are deeply involved in Kazakhstan," explains Luke Coffey, director of the Allison Center for Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation.Coffey joins the "The Daily Signal Podcast" to discuss why Kazakh unrest matters to the U.S., and what we should be doing about it.We also cover these stories: President Joe Biden says if Senate Democrats don't get their way on voting legislation, the filibuster needs to end.Dr. Anthony Fauci clashes again with Sen.

 The World Health Organization selected Cass Sunstein to head its COVID Response Psychological Unit, a hemorrhagic fever breaks out in Northwest China weeks before Olympics to start, CNN producer John Griffin slapped with $15M civil suit for child sex exploitation, and the Kazakhstan intelligence chief, who was Hunter Biden's 'close friend', was arrested for treason.Here's your Daily dose of Human Events with @JackPosobiec 

Chief joins the show to talk about the revolt going on in Kazakhstan. We get into a viral video Chief found to spark the topic, comparing it to the Poland-Belarus conflict we covered earlier, the leadership dynamic within Kazakhstan, and more.

The World Health Organization warns that more than half the population of Europe will be infected with the Omicron variant within the next two months. Also, Kazakhstan's president says a Russian-led force he invited to quell unrest will begin leaving on Thursday, and doctors in the United States have carried out a pioneering operation to give a man a genetically modified heart of a pig.

The writing was on the wall. And the warnings were ignored. In this episode, I address the scandalous comments by a Supreme Court Justice, and the left's ongoing battle with the COVID truth, despite conservative warnings. News Picks: One of the best pieces I've read in a long time about the growing fissures in America. More good news on Ivermectin.  The government is worried that they can't do more to track you if you contract coronavirus. Was this virology lab seized by protestors in Kazakhstan?  YouTube tried to censor this conservative's music video. Rumble came to the rescue. Some of the same issues we had with the 2020 procedures are still in play for 2022. The Chinese communist party is using “woke” Americans to make spying easier.
