Einar Tangen: The Post-American World Economy
Einar Tangen is a Senior Fellow at Teihe Institute & Chairman of Asia Narratives. America's unpredictable and aggressive economic behaviour over the past decade is indicative of decline and efforts to reverse its former hegemonic position. China aims to lock America into a predictable and stable economic partnership, although its main priority is to diversify its economic partnerships and develop a new international economic architecture. The recent ASEAN-GCC-China Summit in Malaysia demonstrates how the foundations of the old world economy are unravelling.Follow Prof. Glenn Diesen:Substack: https://glenndiesen.substack.com/X/Twitter: https://x.com/Glenn_DiesenPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/glenndiesenSupport the channel: PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/glenndiesenBuy me a Coffee: buymeacoffee.com/gdiesengGo Fund Me: https://gofund.me/09ea012f

Broadcasting from Georgia, I discuss with Alexander Mercouris and Ian Proud the security challenges of Georgia as a small country on the border of large powers.
