Q&A: Carney’s Speech, Trump’s Board of Peace, the UN, China, Cuba and Nicaragua
President Donald Trump is backing away from his original demands for Greenland — no invasion, no outright purchase. But that doesn’t mean the issue is resolved. In this episode, I explain what kind of deal could now be on the table, why reports suggest the US could gain sovereignty over small parts of Greenland, and why Trump is focused on permanent control rather than NATO-based arrangements. I also answer your questions from Instagram - including why Mark Carney’s speech at the World Economic Forum went viral, what it tells us about leadership in today’s geopolitical climate, and how it contrasts with Trump’s approach. We then look at Trump’s proposed Board of Peace, concerns about how it would coexist with the United Nations, and what US strategy in the Western Hemisphere means for countries like Cuba, Nicaragua, and China’s position in Latin America.
