In this episode, I sit down with David Moran, a seasoned diplomat with extensive experience in Central Asia, the South Caucasus, and Europe. Moran shares his deep insights into the geopolitical complexities of Eurasia, drawing from his time as UK ambassador to countries such as Switzerland and Kazakhstan. Together, we explore a wide range of topics that highlight the historical, cultural, and political dynamics shaping the region today.
We discuss:
- Russia’s influence in Eurasia: How former Soviet states navigate their independence while dealing with Russian aggression.
- The impact of climate change: The environmental challenges facing Central Asia, from glacier melt to water scarcity.
- Public aspirations: How youth in the region are redefining national identities and striving for prosperity.
- China's growing presence: The opportunities and risks posed by the Belt and Road Initiative.
- Religion in governance: The role of Christianity in the South Caucasus and the challenges of promoting moderate Islam in Central Asia.
- Brexit reflections: Moran’s observations on the UK’s departure from the EU and lessons from Switzerland's model of engagement.
Join us for a compelling discussion on the interplay of history, geopolitics, and culture that defines one of the world’s most dynamic regions.
