What Is the United States' Role in the (New) Global Order? || Ask Peter Zeihan

*This video was recorded in May of 2024.

If you've read my book "The End of the World Is Just the Beginning" then you're well aware of the US stepping away from the Global Order. But what does life look for other countries once that happens?

How is Peter's audio worse at home than on the trail 💀

Forget about New Zealand. We left Middle Earth during covid and aren’t coming back. 😊

It’s interesting how the Japanese have been so much more aware of the precariousness of their situation than the Europeans. Perhaps it’s because they’re located near both Russia and China and have engaged in wars with both.

Idk why yall are hating on the Xbox 360 mic - I think it’s unique and emphasizes the importance of active listening🤣

I'm not an isolationist American, but I can understand that thought and feeling on the surface. the US has a good incentive to turn inward, so it takes something big to keep our minds on Europe and our other allies. The way most Europeans didn't recognize the Russian threat for at least the entirety of Putin's time in office always made me think, "If you are so disinterested in your own protection, why should we care about it?" The Russian invasion of Ukraine has finally gotten Europe to re-examine security policy, and I hope we support those efforts.

New Zealand biggest problem is when the Penguin army finally decides to invade

Zeihan's mic was constantly being cutout... time to examine equipment and compressor settings before things go south.

Everybody hates having the US around until we get sick of the side eye and go home. Then suddenly it's like, "YOU CAN'T JUST LEAVE US OUT HERE!"

...yes ...yes we can.

Notice how New Zealand is not on Zeihan's map behind him 😆

Pete - I note you now have 811, 000 subscribers. Take some of that ad revenue and for Pete's sake - invest in a decent audio system!

Sweden gave up on energy security and neutrality in the seventies. It had a military string enough to stop a Soviet invasion, but it has shrunk every year. All nuclear and hydro power is from back then, when Sweden still future proofed infrastructure. Sweden even had its own nuclear program (in order to not use American or Soviet tech). But the now six out of twelve reactors are closed early and replaced with oil in the winter.

Romanian here. My country is currently building the largest American base in Europe, will be 10K strong. So over here, on our end, the future alongside America seems quite assured.

I need some wind in the background to be able to understand Peter.

I remember thinking something was up when Abe visited the golden palace the first day Trump was voted in.

Good morning everyone, enjoy your 3-4 day weekend. 🇺🇸

My wife just pointed out that Peter looks like Kenny Everett.... Now I can't unsee it 😂

[derekwhite]

All the comments referencing poor audio quality and yet my audio is fine.

[coreyknigge]

The amount of audio problems on this channel is too damn high.

After the backlash it got from the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, I think America just got fed up and decided that: "Y'all figure it out! Good luck!" lol

I'm always looking at bookshelves in the backgrounds to see what the person is reading. The interviewer's background is unfortunate, not just the empty alcohol bottles either. I do have great respect for Peter Zeihan. Even people who disagree with him have to admit that he thinks about global politics a lot, and has been doing this a long time, so he knows more than almost all of us do (especially me). Thanks Peter!
