About this episode

In this episode, we report on the implementation of 50 percent United States tariffs on $20 billion of Canadian goods as Prime Minister Mark Carney pledges dollar-for-dollar retaliation, and examine Iran's threats to target regional neighbors cooperating with forthcoming American secondary sanctions amid ongoing transit disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz. We also cover Russian President Vladimir Putin warning Ukraine over economic strikes as France and Germany pledge air defense interceptors, and a US federal court striking down the administration's 75-country immigrant visa freeze. In our deep dives, Kai evaluates how global supply chains and trade desks assess the North American tariff standoff, while Julie analyzes how regional capitals and energy markets view Iran's deterrence posture in the Persian Gulf. In our regional roundup, we report on Colombia's earthquake reconstruction, Sweden's school sword attack, a fatal wrong-way crash in England, Kazakhstan's Kurultai elections, and the DR Congo Ebola epidemic. Finally, our revolving segment examines South Korea launching a trial container voyage across the Arctic Northern Sea Route to Europe.
