Daunis Auers, Chairman of the Board and researcher at the LaSER think tank, took part in the latest episode of Ir’s “Ārskats” podcast, where he joined Ir commentator Pauls Raudseps to discuss the most significant international political and security developments of the past week.
The discussion focused on the changing global order and the end of the era of globalisation. Daunis Auers and Pauls Raudseps discussed the conclusion of the decades-long period of free trade and relative peace, what a new international order might look like, and how Latvia should navigate an increasingly complex and uncertain geopolitical environment.
The podcast also addressed the latest developments in the Middle East, Iceland’s decision not to resume negotiations on joining the European Union, Germany’s response to the Russian-organised attack at Leipzig Airport, and political developments in Estonia. The discussion also touched on Estonia’s newly elected President Illi Madise, Norway’s new King Haakon VIII and the potential advantages of constitutional monarchy, as well as an ammunition procurement scandal in Estonia.
