Rory Stewart

There's a truly horrible picture of him gliding past me and me looking like I'm old and tired.

Anyway, I don't care.

I still mention Maradona every day of my life.

You've got your dad's Chinese teacher.

I've got my Maradona boots, you know.

See you soon.

Bye-bye.

See you soon.

Bye-bye.

Welcome to the Restless Politics with me, Rory Stewart.

And me, Ernest Campbell.

And we're doing something quite radical here, which is our main episode today is going to be located in a time and a place.

We're going to bring you right into the heart of the Munich Security Conference.

We're recording it a little bit earlier than we normally would.

But I hope what you'll feel is it gives you a sense of the flavor of international diplomacy.

One of them is just a feeling of what these international conferences are like, what it's like to be here, the kind of things that people are talking about.

But then we're going to get, I think, into the big issues, which is, you know, what's going on in the world.

what is now happening in the big international relations, particularly between Europe and the US.

And we're going to focus on two big speeches.

We're going to focus on the speech by Marco Rubio, the Secretary of State, which happened this morning.
