About this episode

In this episode, we report on the United States preparing sweeping secondary sanctions against Iran as Tehran threatens to halt all Persian Gulf crude exports transiting the Strait of Hormuz, and examine the enforcement of 50 percent US tariffs on $20 billion of Canadian goods as Prime Minister Mark Carney pledges matching retaliation. We also cover European leaders convening in Kyiv on Ukraine's 35th Independence Day to authorize long-range missile blueprint transfers and air defense support, while President Volodymyr Zelenskyy firmly rejects wartime elections. In our deep dives, Kai evaluates how global supply chains and trade desks navigate the North American tariff standoff, while Julie analyzes the strategic and industrial implications of Western missile co-production in Ukraine. In our regional roundup, we cover the Hawk wildfire in Nevada, the health deterioration of Norway's King Harald V, New Zealand's proposed under-16 social media ban, a deadly landfill collapse in Guinea, and the ruling party's landslide in Kazakhstan's Kurultai elections. Finally, our revolving segment examines OpenAI launching targeted advertising across European ChatGPT users.
