Ian Bremmer

secretary general because I think that that's an extraordinary organization that the U.S.

has created.

I'm very proud of it.

I love that it's in New York.

I love the quality of all the ambassadors that are sent by different countries around the world to engage in multilateralism.

try to improve governance and create and move forward sustainable development goals.

But an American is not going to run the UN.

So that's a non-starter.

So I kind of think that I've over these decades created the job that really fits well for me.

Different conversation, but yeah, yeah.

Well, I mean, I obviously do vote.

So it's when, you know, you say that I'm seen as nonpartisan, but I still have preferences.

The point is that your preferences are not your analysis.

Now, if my job were to advocate or lobby or be a policymaker or be a partisan tribal part of that process, that would be a different story.

That's not my job.

My job, my professional application, and what I do publicly is analysis.

It is not personal preference.

i never could have written about the g0 world um if my analysis were my personal preference i mean more often than not uh because we are in a geopolitical cycle and we're in a downward uh portion of that cycle so we're hitting the geopolitical recession most of the things that i see coming geopolitically are not things that i like

but nobody cares what I like, or at least they shouldn't.

Maybe people that follow me may like me personally, but they still don't really care what I like.
