YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Giorgio Cafiero, CEO of Gulf State Analytics, joins the show to break down Trump’s Middle East tour. During his four-day trip, Trump struck a massive arms deal with Saudi Arabia, met with Syria’s new head of state and former al-Qaeda leader, Abu Mohammed al-Jolani, announced the lifting of US sanctions on Syria, and made a deal with the UAE to commit $1.4 trillion to the US's AI sector. Trump’s major dealmaking is happening absent of any input or face time with Netanyahu – a move Cafiero sees as a shift in Middle East policy that shifts power away from Israel.
