Usbekistan ist ein Land mit einer bewegten Historie: Die Stadt Samarkand war früh ein wichtiges Handelszentrum der alten Seidenstraße. Unzählige Karawanen zogen vorbei, die Kulturen kreuzten sich. Eine Tradition, die bis heute nachwirkt: Neben dem Reichtum an Rohstoffen ist Usbekistan für Europa noch immer wegen der Handelsrouten nach Asien und China spannend.Stefan Meister ist Leiter des Zentrums für Ordnung und Governance in Osteuropa, Russland und Zentralasien der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Auswärtige Politik (DGAP): Für ihn konkurrieren aktuell Kasachstan und Usbekistan um "eine Art Vorherrschaft" in der Region: Kasachstan habe seinen Öl- und Gassektor früh für westliche Investitionen geöffnet. "Usbekistan ist jetzt das zweite Land, das versucht, Kontakte Richtung Europa zu knüpfen", sagt Meister im Podcast "Wirtschaft Welt & Weit".Den Wunsch, sich enger zu vernetzen, sieht Meister auf beiden Seiten. Der russische Angriffskrieg auf die Ukraine hat ihn intensiviert: Usbekistan als postsowjetisches Land wolle sich "wegdiversifizieren vom russischen Einfluss", sagt der Experte. Das passt zum Interesse der EU und Deutschlands an alternativen Handelsrouten, die an Russland vorbei nach Asien und China führen. Und es steht genauso im Einklang mit dem europäischen Bestreben, sich bei den für die Hightech-Industrie so wichtigen seltenen Erden breiter aufzustellen: "Da gibt es einiges an Lagerstätten."Gerade erst war Samarkand Schauplatz des EU-Zentralasien-Gipfels. Die EU, Usbekistan, Kasachstan, aber auch Kirgisistan, Tadschikistan und Turkmenistan haben in der drittgrößten Stadt des Landes ihren Willen nach einer engeren Zusammenarbeit bekundet. Im Rahmen von "Global Gateway", dem europäischen Alternativprojekt zur neuen chinesischen Seidenstraße, sollen künftig Milliardensummen nach Zentralasien fließen. Wann und in welcher Form bleibt allerdings noch vage.Während die EU weiter plant, ist China schon jetzt ein großer Player in der Region. Stefan Meister sieht den Vorsprung der Volksrepublik gelassen: Der Ausbau des mittleren Handelskorridors könne von unterschiedlichen Seiten aus vorangetrieben werden, sagt er. "Letztlich geht es darum, dass man große Investitionen von verschiedenen Seiten her stemmt." Chinesische Investitionen sind für ihn "nicht per se negativ". Davon könne letztlich auch Europa profitieren.Fest steht: In Usbekistan ist Raum für deutsche Investitionen. Das Land möchte vor Ort höherwertige Arbeitsplätze schaffen. Außerdem ist es bestrebt, seine Abhängigkeiten zu China und Russland zu reduzieren. Sicher ist aber auch, dass es sich um ein autoritäres Regime handelt, welches beim Thema Rechtsstaatlichkeit Nachholbedarf hat. Das mache die Investitionsbedingungen aus deutscher Perspektive "nicht unbedingt attraktiv", konstatiert Meister. Schreiben Sie Ihre Fragen, Kritik und Anmerkungen gern an www@n-tv.de.

In this episode, Alex first reacts to the news that Joe Biden has an aggressive form of prostate cancer. Then he talks about the hearings the Supreme Court held on Thursday around Trump's executive order to overturn birthright citizenship. It seems like the justices don't find the administration's argument valid, but there is a debate over whether national injunctions should be used in matters like this. Alex dives into injunctions and why they are controversial and also important to prevent harm.
In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin: First, America's space chief is sounding the alarm on Russian and Chinese advances in space-based warfare, including Beijing's “kill web” satellite network, Moscow's intention to put a nuclear weapon into orbit, and their joint project to build a permanent moon base by mid-2030. We'll have the details. Later in the show—in a surprising development, we are learning that Israel is engaged in secret talks with the new Islamist regime in Syria. The discussions are reportedly aimed at reducing tensions between the longtime adversaries, and at potentially having Damascus join the Abraham Accords, which would further erode Iran's strategic interests in the Middle East.

Sie wählen rechts, sprechen nur russisch und unterstützen Putin? Solchen und anderen Vorurteilen sehen sich russlanddeutsche (Spät-)Aussiedler*innen ausgesetzt. An aufrichtigem Interesse und Wissen um die bewegte Historie der rund 2,5 Millionen in Deutschland lebenden Russlanddeutschen mangelt es in unserer Gesellschaft. Ira Peter und ich sprechen deswegen um eine große und wenig gesehene Gruppe in Deutschland, Russlanddeutsche, und wir stellen die Frage sind sie "Deutsch genug?". Über das Verhältnis zwischen China und Russland wird viel spekuliert. Einerseits befürchten Beobachter:innen ein Bündnis der autoritären Regime. Andererseits widersprechen sich die geopolitischen Interessen Pekings und Moskaus oftmals. Auf der einen Seite nennen sich Xi Jinping und Wladimir Putin »gute Freunde«. Auf der anderen Seite ist unklar, ob die Länder sich auf Augenhöhe begegnen und wie sich die Machtbalance verschoben hat. Sören Urbansky und Martin Wagner haben dazu ein Buch geschrieben und sprechen mit mir über "Russland und China´s kurze Geschichte einer langen Beziehung". Enjoy!^^

This week on Conflicted we are drawing our narrative arc on Syria to a close with our second episode with filmmaker and political activist, Matar Ismaeel. Last time Matar told us about his experiences filming protests in 2011 as the Syrian revolution began, being tortured in Assad's prisons, and witnessing firsthand the brutal siege of Southern Damascus. This episode Matar finishes his remarkable story with us - from recounting how Friends of his were radicalised by a ISIS to the battles he witnessed between opposition forces, Assad's forces and Islamist forces—especially ISIS. Finally, Matar recounts the decision to evacuate Southern Damascus and gives his reflections on the future of Syria now the Assad regime has been toppled. He even invites Conflicted to join them in their celebrations - well deserved after all this time.

In Episode 95 of Breaking History, hosts Matt Ehret and Ghost unravel the tangled web of illusions propping up today's regime-driven narratives. From the carefully choreographed photo ops of Nancy Pelosi and Zelenskyy to the strange symbolism surrounding the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse, this episode dives deep into the manipulation of perception on the world stage. They examine how historical revisionism, intelligence operations, and high-tech fakery, such as green screen theatrics and AI-generated imagery, are used to manufacture consensus and control narratives. Matt and Ghost explore the disturbing alignment of Western propaganda with historic fascist precedents, drawing comparisons between Canada's current political censorship and the ideological strategies of WWII Germany. The duo also takes a hard look at the CIA's postwar infiltration into media and academia, dissecting the “cultural Cold War” and its long-lasting effects on truth, sovereignty, and consciousness. With chilling commentary on population control, synthetic culture, and false flag operations, this episode challenges listeners to discern reality from illusion and question the institutions shaping our collective understanding of history. Are we witnessing the unraveling of the empire, or just the next act in a scripted global drama? Breaking History pulls no punches in its effort to expose the man behind the curtain.

In a packed Saturday night edition of Devolution Power Hour, Jon Herold and Chris Paul dive into a whirlwind of topics connecting culture, geopolitics, and narrative warfare. They start light with the NFL draft drama surrounding Shedeur Sanders, exposing how Trump's casual posts seemingly shattered a media-manufactured story in real time. Then they pivot into Trump's meeting with Zelensky at the Pope's funeral, dissecting its optics, body language, and what Trump's subtle rebuke of Putin really signals in the broader geopolitical chess match. From there, Jon and Chris explore NATO's desperate attempts to stay relevant in Ukraine, the accelerating collapse of the Crossfire Hurricane coverup, and how Israel's AI warfare tech reveals just how advanced military technology has become. They also cover nuclear energy diplomacy with Armenia and Iran, the Abraham Accords expansion, and how sovereignty battles are being framed through economic and military alliances. Wrapping up, they discuss the FBI arresting corrupt judges, Katie Hobbs' ties to human smuggling scandals, the Defense Policy Board purge, and how Trump's new executive orders targeting ActBlue and foreign interference connect back to EO 13848. It is a sprawling, energetic episode packed with insight, theory, humor, and serious truth bombs.
Free speech is facing an unprecedented crackdown across the UK and Europe. The UK's Online Safety Act and the EU's sweeping Digital Services Act are driving small forums offline, pressuring U.S. platforms to silence users, and even tasking British pubs with policing conversations under new “hate speech” rules. Is this the end of open dialogue in the West?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-highwire-with-del-bigtree--3620606/support.
