Sizing Up the Competitors – U.S., NATO and China, Russia, and BRICS+
from The Kids Table: Global Youth Podcast · host Claire Ziebart and Y.A. Peng
For the first full episode of The Kids Table, we set the stage for global conflict. In the episode, we explore the two competing blocs, the West, with the US leading NATO and China, Russia, and the rest of the BRICS+ members. We also discuss who is caught between the crossfire, and by diving deeper into the Ukraine crisis and Turkey's bid for BRICS, contemplate how being in between these two powers can be good and bad at the same time.
