We can see that today.

Then Matt talked about broader themes which are just as important to understand in terms of the global balance of power.

The evolution of these power dynamics all the way back to logic, Plato, really fascinating stuff.

Then just basic definitions.

What is unipolarity, bipolarity, multipolarity?

These terms are bandied about, but do people really understand what they mean?

The role of the West in the Russian escalation?

There is no doubt that NATO expansionism was a contributing factor.

And that's not something you hear too often in Western media, but...

It's undeniable.

Matt finished off with the rise of Trump and the economic shifts and the origins of Trump go way back, even before Reagan's time, you could argue.

So I'm going to wrap up now.

Huge thanks for listening.

Hope you found it useful.

Part two is just as good, if not better.

And we'll have that next week of these two geopolitical experts.

Don't forget the market wrap will be coming up this week as well, where I look at the major events

in the markets this week and what I found interesting and what's on my radar, I suppose, over the next week or so.

Have a good week.

Take care.
