Geopolitical analyst Pascal Lottaz of Neutrality Studies joins Jay Martin to explore the strategic role of neutral states in today’s global power struggle. They discuss how nations like Mongolia, Georgia, and Canada navigate pressure from superpowers, why some countries act with impunity while others face punishment, and what the rise of multipolarity means for the future of trade, commodities, and conflict.
