Podcast interview with former White House adviser: The world is not just turbulent - it faces a seismic shift

In this podcast, Insightview asks <a href="https://www.panterra.global/#people" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mark Medish</a> to help navigate a world of complexity not seen since the 1930s. Mark Medish is Vice Chair of <a href="https://www.panterra.global/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Panterra</a>, a London-headquartered strategic consultancy, and a former Special Assistant to President Clinton on the National Security Council.‌‌ ‌<br />‌<br />Insightview asks Mark when he first sensed the world was entering something fundamentally new — not just turbulence, but a genuine systemic shift. We discuss whether the Trump doctrine of transactional bilateralism is sustainable, who is actually running US defence and foreign policy, and whether we are watching a temporary phenomenon or a permanent American reorientation. <br />‌<br />‌Insightviews asks Mark about China's 2030 plan, whether we are witnessing a technology war spiralling out of control, and how that differs from the Cold War. We also discuss Europe's political paralysis and whether artificial intelligence has shifted from a productivity opportunity to an existential risk. Are some large tech companies turning into "middle powers"?<br />‌<br />‌Mark Medish brings a rare combination of perspectives to these questions — having sat at the intersection of US national security, international finance and multilateral diplomacy at moments of genuine historical consequence.<br />‌<br />Mark Medish is also a founding partner of the Mosaiq Law Group and a co-founder of Keep Our Republic, an educational non-profit promoting democratic governance and the rule of law. Previously, he served as US Treasury Deputy Assistant Secretary for International Affairs and worked at the State Department and the United Nations.‌‌<br />‌‌<br />‌‌‌Music: <a href="https://www.melodyloops.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Melodyloops</a>, 'Pure Calmness – by MediaM

Interview with Jens Eskelund: Why is the EU's dependence on China increasing?

In this podcast [min. 55 - English], Insightview asks <a href="https://www.europeanchamber.com.cn/en/presidents-statement" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jens Eskelund</a> to help navigate both the Chinese economic reality and Europe’s strategic dilemma regarding China. Jens Eskelund is President of the <a href="https://www.europeanchamber.com.cn/en/home" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">European Chamber of Commerce in China</a>. <br />‌‌<br />‌Insightview asks Jens how he would describe the actual state of the Chinese economy behind the official data, including deflationary pressures, falling fixed investment, the government’s approach to the property sector, and the impact of rapid automation and AI on household sentiment. We also discuss why Europe’s de-risking remains so limited in practice, what structural barriers European companies face when trying to diversify, and whether Europe risks unintended consequences if it attempts to accelerate the process. Listen to the answer to “whether there are examples where the EU has managed to de-risk?”<br />‌‌<br />‌China’s economy stands at a critical juncture, shaped by a widening gap between what the official data suggest and what underlying trends appear to reveal. On the surface, the country continues to post respectable headline growth and substantial export numbers. However, beneath that, the domestic economy looks significantly more fragile. Monetary data, investment trends and the deepening downturn in the property market all point to conditions that, had they appeared in the United States or the Eurozone, would almost certainly have triggered a return to quantitative easing.<br />‌<br />Against this backdrop, Europe is pursuing a strategy of de-risking its relationship with China. However, the reality on the ground differs from the political messaging. Despite rising geopolitical tensions and growing calls for strategic autonomy, European dependence on imported Chinese goods remains unchanged. Several sectors still rely heavily on Chinese components, materials, and technologies, and shifting supply chains have proved far slower and more complex than many policymakers anticipated. The widening gap between political ambition and practical outcomes makes it essential to understand why Europe has struggled to reduce its exposure.<br />‌<br />Jens Eskelund, who is also Chief Representative for A.P. Moller-Maersk in China, arrived in China in 1998. Jens lives with his family in Beijing. He holds a Master’s degree in Philosophy and studied at Aarhus University in Denmark and the University of Texas at Austin. He has also studied Chinese at Renmin University in Beijing. Before joining Maersk in Beijing in 2000, Jens Eskelund served as Commercial Attaché at the Danish Embassy in China.<br /><br />See the related article <a href="https://insightview.eu/macro_article.php?aid=8096" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a>.<br />‌<br />‌‌‌Music: <a href="https://www.melodyloops.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Melodyloops</a>, 'Pure Calmness – by MediaM<br /><br />‌‌See all previous podcasts here: <a href="https://insightview.eu/index.php?mid=139" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">insightview.eu/podcast</a>

Et smartere Europa: AI og robotteknologiens rolle - Interview m. Kasper Hallenborg, SDU’s Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Instituttet

‌I denne podcast taler Insightview med <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/hallenborg/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kasper Hallenborg</a>, leder af SDU’s Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Institut i Odense – et internationalt anerkendt forskningsmiljø inden for robotteknologi, software og kunstig intelligens.<br />Vi sætter fokus på udviklingen inden for AI og robotter – og i den sammenhæng også droner, som igen er blevet aktuelle efter en ”kapabel aktørs” ulovlige indtrængen på kritisk infrastruktur i Danmark og andre europæiske lande.<br />‌<br />Europa står i dag over for behovet for at blive mere uafhængig af både Kina og USA. Kina er tæt forbundet med Rusland, og tilliden til USA er usikker. Krigen i Ukraine har samtidig skabt behov for en markant europæisk oprustning, hvilket øger efterspørgslen efter ressourcer – fra kapital til højtuddannet arbejdskraft.<br />Det sker midt i en periode med kraftig demografisk modvind, der kræver langt mere effektiv ressourceudnyttelse for at undgå inflation. Med andre ord: produktiviteten skal op.<br />‌<br />Insightview taler med <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/hallenborg/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kasper Hallenborg</a> om, hvordan teknologien allerede bruges, hvilke erfaringer der er gjort, og hvor den kan anvendes fremover – blandt andet i forbindelse med, at nye danske flådefartøjer kan og bør bygges i Danmark, ifølge Kasper. <br />‌<br />‌Link til FT-artikel omtalt i podcasten, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/6468685f-cc40-4c89-8a5c-5c2fddf0cc9f" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tech shocks to industry have only just begun</a>.<br /><br />Du kan finde mere på denne <a href="https://insightview.eu/macro_article.php?aid=8056" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">artikel</a>.<br /><br />Music: Melodyloops, 'Pure Calmness – by MediaM<br /><br />‌‌See all previous podcasts here: www.insightview.eu/podcast
