This is kind of a long talk (50 mins), and it could probably go just as well in the American politics thread or the Ukraine thread, but I think it adds great context to potential emerging military conflicts such as any potential direct military conflict with China from the perspective of economics and global governance. Some of the observations he discusses include:

• the United States as unable to function as the hegemonic dominator of the world economy

• the emergence of new blocks in the world, such as the Chinese block, which includes allies like India, Iran, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia

• economic nationalism as the new logical reality governing the world economic system, and the decline of the United States
