Latest / Talk to Prince Show - Solving World's Problems / Geopolitics is more challenging than you think
Transcript
- 0:01The more people think about geo politics, ah the less Sometimes they misunderstand how
- 0:18super complicated and complex geo politics is. And when you talk about the middle
- 0:32is crisis, people failed to appreciate the role of America and the part of
- 0:43the world. And they see America as the problem of which you start of
- 0:54which that is a mistake, and they fail to see America as a solution.
- 1:02They failed to understand the nefariousness it as a word of the actors in
- 1:11that part of the world. They failed to take into consideration in the state
- 1:19of homos and the freedom of navigation, and to think about the flow of
- 1:26goods of international homers. And they failed to understand the debulicness and of that
- 1:37part of the world. And they failed to understand that they are different.
- 1:46It's a different part of the world, with different religion, different customs,
- 1:49different traditions that are contrary to those of the West. And and like it
- 1:59naw yea the West. The modern day capitalism it's a it's a it's a
- 2:07Western gift to humanity. And some might criticize it if they if they have
- 2:16legitimate reasons, But with a the flow of capital and the success of capitalism
- 2:28even in the Middle Is itself will not be developed. Just imagine, so
- 2:34the Arabian cut out those parts of the world, and we'll just imagine what
- 2:39they were before the Western scientists discovered oil in that part of the world.
- 2:51And imagine the capital, American capital and developing those oil wells and creating wealth
- 2:58to that part of the world. I mean, two countries that see themselves
- 3:02like enemies of America. Just go back and see what American has done for
- 3:07Iran. Right, the conflict with the around is just misalignment and geopolitical politics
- 3:21and the the contrary a position, a position of seeing the world differently,
- 3:39you know, geopolitically. So you it's very dicey and ambiguous and not a
- 3:51straight line, not not a linear line. When you talk about the middle
- 3:55Is politics, you know, most of this countries are not They benefit from
- 4:02Western civilization and Western commerce and the Western way of life, but they don't
- 4:11like to become Western political systems, and they don't like Western religions. And
- 4:19it's a system in the world that it's antomic to everything that liberal democratic system
- 4:30stands for. And some as the kingdoms, some must the emirates and the
- 4:38and the rights that the Western world propagates and protects are professes, if that's
- 4:47the right word. It's a contrary or contraband the way the people in the
- 4:56middle see it. And it's a part of the world rich in natural resources
- 5:08that we need and very strategic in geopolitical alignments and very necessary not only in
- 5:23the flow of goods, but in the flow of oil, the oil that
- 5:30drives our homes, our cars. And so just imagine the value of oil.
- 5:39You can see what happened to Gather, you know, with the war
- 5:43in Gather. Without the floor of oil, you can see that everything is
- 5:49in instant still, the hospitals, the kitchen, the roads, and infrastructures,
- 5:55critical or not critical infrastructure. So to be able to contrude in the
- 6:00national commerce of the free floor of oil, it's very important. And the
- 6:09middle is it's partly Africa and partly Asia, and and it's very rich and
- 6:23very powerful. They've got great players that can shift geopolitical politics very easily.
- 6:34And with the bricks you know in some of these countries. Now you know
- 6:42you've got the global South and the global North. So there is an alignment
- 6:47that is changing geo politics, and people are not seeing what is happening.
- 6:59You know, there's a take or platonic shift in the world from uni polarity
- 7:11or from a unipolar war to the multi or bipolar war. So the geoe
- 7:20political hemisphere of the world is becoming very very complicated. So without America,
- 7:38things we go very, very bad, so fast. America is the only
- 7:47player in the Joe political asphere that has more interest in any part of the
- 7:58world than any country else. So based on this fundamental reason of interest and
- 8:09investment, America would be the first nation in the world that we want the
- 8:20nations of the world to be peaceful. Peace in the world is beneficial of
- 8:31America. It's beneficial for American businesses to prosper. It's beneficial for American aid
- 8:46around the world. It's beneficial for education, exchange of culture, and free
- 8:56movement of people and goods, and the freedom of space, freedom online,
- 9:09and freedom in the oceans. So therefore, to secure that peace, you
- 9:18need a military. It's that simple. American military is now going places and
- 9:26shooting people and killing people. On the contrary, people try to do that
- 9:33American military. American goes aim. When the geopolitical interests of the world is
- 9:43threatened, a common person may not see that, may not know that because
- 9:50it might be difficult for them to connect the dots. If you reap through
- 9:58the lines and study your politics, and if you can invisage to see the
- 10:09future of things, you'll get to see sometimes that in America is acting proactively
- 10:20or preemptively to seecure global peace gee political peace. It's different from the way
- 10:35we think about peace in the family, in our community, or within individuals.
- 10:48Political peace sometimes can mean war. You can fight a small war to
- 10:54prevent a bigger war. You can intervene to prevent a dictator somewhere for the
- 11:07fear that if things go bad, because sometimes dictators don't look at the global
- 11:15picture. They don't look things holistically. Dictators most at times, and tyrants
- 11:22they see things so limited in front of them for their own Macavilian interest.
- 11:30So sometimes you see American intervene in the world. You might be asking why,
- 11:37But American is intervening to prevent something bigger that might distabilize the war.
- 11:50You know, destabilization in one part of the world affects every part of the
- 11:56world. But when you're the leader of the free world, or you are
- 12:03the superpower of the world, super powerism means you got vested interest in almost
- 12:11every part of the war. When people always see America based on the military
- 12:22mind, they get it wrong. They don't think about the self power,
- 12:28American movies, fashion shows, media, education, science, technology, right,
- 12:41sustainability, philanthropy, humanitarianism. They failed to understand the United Nations that
- 12:52supposied the leak of Nations and all the War Bank and the IMF and all
- 13:00these Britain rood institutions. They were designed to make this war a better place.
- 13:11Do not get me wrong. Americans get it wrong, sometimes, sometimes
- 13:22later, sometimes most of the times. It's not America as the people getted
- 13:30in wrong. It's just an administration getting it wrong. And people fail to
- 13:39understand that America is not a dictatorship. The leaders in America don't last long,
- 13:48so one bad decision where one leader can be overturned by another election,
- 13:56by another Congress and another executive brands, by the Supreme Court or by the
- 14:05court of public opinion. As a parent with so many kids, it being
- 14:18on people in the world looking after you. You will not get it right
- 14:26all the time. You will favor some kids, some children, some countries
- 14:33more than others. Humans are just humans, so geo politics is very tricky.
- 14:48The way out of crisis sometimes on wars, depends on the people that
- 14:52are elected in office. The people you are elected in office says a lot.
- 15:01They can't give air projection a perception and perspective of where the world is
- 15:09going, especially if it's a powerful nation like America or China or EU,
- 15:18or the Breaks, or even the United Nations with African Union, or the
- 15:28all American states, and the leaders that national that nationalistic politics procreates determine the
- 15:50overall temperature or energy or vibration of frequency of Joe politics. The right winger
- 16:04leaders somewhere and they left winger leaders somewhere in a particular country with twistings,
- 16:15and they're going to have a spillover effect. So the more countries elect moderate
- 16:26leaders, no matter the political party, is better for America, and it's
- 16:33better for a while. If I were to advise American politics American politicians,
- 16:45I will always advise American leaders of American people if the laws will permit,
- 16:52based on the domestic politics or the nation and their laws, for American to
- 16:56always support leaders are moderate. If Americans support centrists or leaders are moderate,
- 17:10there will be less for American to intervene in the world. But what extremists
- 17:21get to power, they cease power, they call they tell whatever they do,
- 17:26or a propolist movement. They get to power, then mess things up.
- 17:33They promise things they cannot deliver. They promise height, they give height.
- 17:41Division can be racism or sexism, or bigotry. It can be something
- 17:48against migrants, against a particular group of people, against a religion, or
- 17:53to crack down the media. These extreme mists leaders, they get into office
- 18:03with very divisive and anakka and destructive agendas, and these agendas destabilizes the war
- 18:19order and sometimes it forces the hand of America to intervene. American cannot sit
- 18:36by and let Russia do what Russia wants. People in America will be in
- 18:49the streets if that's sure happen. America cannot sit by and see what those
- 19:00terrorists did to the people in Israel, the ambush and the atrocity, and
- 19:10you can see that is a low point for humanity to just kill children unexpectedly,
- 19:22not to minimize the conflict and the history of that area. But that
- 19:26does not justify for a group to just get into the country like Israel and
- 19:30do that America cannot sit by. American cannot sit by when it's cross human
- 19:42rights violation, either against women, against minority, against the press, against
- 19:53some people that ask for help. It doesn't matter which nation is the number
- 20:02one or superpower or whatever you call it, that nation cannot sit by without
- 20:07doing something. And equally is for American politicians to be very careful not to
- 20:23fall for debate and for the media not to push American leaders with agendered questions,
- 20:36you know, putting a leader in a tough spot with a yes or
- 20:40no answer in order to use that yes or no answer to score political points
- 20:45or whatever the point. And you force the hand of a leader to say
- 20:52something that might be detrimental to the interests of that country. You push a
- 21:03leader to say something that they're not supposed to say, and other admissions in
- 21:08the world might take that seriously, and once they take that seriously, they
- 21:14act on that packin sides. Right, as a leader of the free world,
- 21:26Americans, you have good intelligence offices and people with their eyes on the
- 21:33ground everywhere to be able to know the good side or or at best the
- 21:42middle or centrist because every extreme voice that American supports will always not go wrong
- 21:53and go right. If you support a tirhen to take power, no matter
- 22:02what your political interest, what gains that American businesses derive that tyrant. We
- 22:11don't take care of their people, gonna brutalize them, abuse them, kill
- 22:15them, impoverish them, made their lives miserable. And these people now will
- 22:22be false to migrate. And when these people migrate, they go to countries
- 22:29that aid on like them or build on one then or see have problems of
- 22:33their own ord. Some right winger or in or left winger use these migrants
- 22:47to propagate some very very extremist ideas and with an informed public, these people
- 23:02they get to win elections. And when you give them power, they're supposed
- 23:10to fulfill the promises, not the promise that they are people, no matter
- 23:15extrame. And when they do execute those promises, it creates chaos, violence,
- 23:25hatred, corruption, nepotism, and spill over to the economy. You
- 23:33get recession or depression or collapse of the structure of governance or government, and
- 23:42terrorists or some groups are born. And when these groups are made the vow
- 23:56to destroy others, then America will be first to intervene when they do something
- 24:03crazy and it'll be easy to blame America, not knowing that America will not
- 24:11like to intervene. When people talk about Iraq, they forget that down side.
- 24:22They talk about Libya, they forget get Jaffy. When we talk about
- 24:29Eastern Europe, to forget about Pinocche. We can, you can. You
- 24:33can keep going down the list of these leaders I talk about Syria, you
- 24:42might see that those leaders who are not helping their people. These people are
- 24:48not meant to help their people. That's noting they intend for them governing their
- 24:55people. M hm. If Americans were to support centrists or moderates for leadership
- 25:10and let these people to be accountable to their countries, to be able to
- 25:14use their resources effectively, make sure that they are not corrupt, prevent money
- 25:22laundry, make sure that they punish cruties or base of power. Make sure
- 25:34that these countries got civilized institutions that are transparent, that are there for their
- 25:41people for the better way of being to lead than to kill or reward friends
- 25:52and punish enemies. If America has to make sure that leaders of these countries
- 26:04are mission builders themselves that can manage our resources effectively. At the end of
- 26:14the day, American buy resources, it doesn't matter from who. Why not
- 26:18just buy their resources from the good guys than in black markets or from dictators
- 26:29that great chaos, But buy it from these guys. Why not just buy
- 26:37it from good leaders that can take care of their people and prevent them from
- 26:44becoming terrorists or migrating or destabilizing geo politics. It's easy to blame my mad
- 27:02be'st difficult to replace America. You can criticize American to do better and give
- 27:11your suggestions, and it's for American leaders to be able to listen and to
- 27:25understand that the core war mentality is passed. Today is the artificial intelligence age,
- 27:37is the age of TikTok, instagram, of churgipt. It's an age
- 27:48of open media and open the eye. It takes seconds for people to know
- 27:57everything around the world. You cannot spain anymore. Wether people know that you're
- 28:06lying, they can't see for themselves. People take pictures everywhere. It takes
- 28:12a second to send a picture in the world. Therefore, that Cold War
- 28:22where things are hittting all that the rock, it's not like that anymore.
- 28:30People can understand what it's happening around the world. What do you blink over
- 28:36an hour, so you must know the world when you're living it. We
- 28:44should stop deciving ourselves that the people are that stupid. They're not. Although
- 28:49we can force people to like who they don't want, or have what they
- 28:56don't need, or need what they don't like. Everybody in the world today
- 29:07wants a better world, a peaceful, sustainable world where they can live happily
- 29:15with their family, work, come home peaceful and safe, have time to
- 29:22invest for themselves, save some money in the bank, create their own businesses,
- 29:30live a peaceful and comfortable life. Everybody anywhere in the world likes to
- 29:38live in peace. At Peace becomes subjective, So instead of looking at those
- 29:53who want to go to war, look at those who want peace. And
- 30:00when you do, work with those who one pays. Make the governments to
- 30:03be sustainable. It's unwise to be constantly changing governments in any system, no
- 30:15matter the geo political interests. It's just not smart. It's gonna create instability,
- 30:23chaos, anarchy, riots, violence, terror and death. Do not
- 30:38force dictators on countries. Work with the good guys. Who those good guys
- 30:51are I cannot tell, but those good guys should be the good guys that
- 30:59they pick alike. Do not impose a leader on the population. There'll be
- 31:11a mistake. Let the people and lect those they like. Those Dubai American
- 31:22goods. Americans did make business with them, and American resources were number wasted
- 31:33American lives. We're not be wasted American philanthropy, We're not wasted an American
- 31:41interest. We never wasted
