58 分钟With you at the center of it all.
UBS.
Banking is our craft.
You're listening to The Globalist, first broadcast on the 11th of August 2025 on Monocle Radio.
The Globalist, in association with UBS.
Hello, this is The Globalist, broadcasting to you live from Midori House in London.
I'm Georgina Godwin.
On the show ahead...
You're looking at territory that's been fought over for three and a half years.
So we're looking at that, but we're actually looking to get some back, some swapping.
It's complicated.
Talks between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin are slated for Friday in Alaska.
But with little or no Ukrainian or European involvement, can anything be achieved?
How much of a political risk is this for Trump and Putin?
We'll cross to Israel to interrogate the plan for a full military takeover of Gaza City and the domestic and international reaction.
We'll rustle through the day's papers and hear about the rise of nationalism in Thailand before joining our security correspondent in our Zurich studio to examine the continuing fallout over the 39% tariffs imposed on Switzerland and specifically what this means for the defence industry.
Then...
Europe has to learn to stand on its own feet.
And that means for me,
big time investments in defence and big time investments in digital infrastructure.
