It was my pleasure to invite Yves Tiberghien back into the Virtual Studio to examine the state of geopolitical relations today and in particular the impact of the current conflicts – Ukraine and Russia, and the US-Israel war in Iran.
Also, I wanted to get his take on the impact of the Trump administration on the global order. Finally, Yves and a colleague Zaki Laidi recently published a volume with Cambridge University Press called the “Hedgers” which focuses in part on what they identify as 8 key Global South Middle Powers (GSMP) and their active roles in global order. I wanted to get his reflections on these Middle Powers.
