I have mentioned several times in previous posts that I find
the work of George Friedman’s Geopolitical Futures organization worth following.
I recently listened to two podcasts from his group and a speech George Friedman gave, all of which I recommend.
The April 24th podcast “Not Another Cold War” with Jacob Shapiro and Cole Alton, two senior
staff members at Geopolitical Futures, after giving a few minutes analysis of
what is happening in Armenia and Korea these days, devotes most of the podcast
to giving an extraordinarily good assessment of the state of Russia today, the
geopolitical issues it faces, and how that explains what Putin is trying to do
at the moment. It can be found on YouTube at https://youtu.be/knHeNHn-dtA
The second podcast is an interview with George Friedman on
the Olasky Interview, which can be found at https://soundcloud.com/world-news-group/the-olasky-interview-george-friedman-1.
George is asked to estimate, for a number of major world leaders, whether their
fortunes are going up or going down. I found this podcast fascinating.
Finally, George Friedman was the keynote speaker at the 2017 McCain Conference at the US Naval Academy, and his speech was an outstanding analysis of American foreign policy and strategy over the past 100 years. It can be seen at https://youtu.be/4i-RF6EhLZs
