This interview explores the escalating crises in West Asia and Europe. The US administration's 90-day diesel export ban highlights a severe domestic energy crisis driven by the ongoing regional war. Meanwhile, Strait of Hormuz shipping has plummeted, and Yemen's strategic control over Bab al-Mandab is reshaping regional power dynamics, leaving Gulf monarchies increasingly vulnerable.

We also analyze deep NATO fractures, contrasting the US focus on the Middle East with Europe's desperate obsession with Ukraine. As European economies teeter on collapse, ruling elites may push for a premature war with Russia to distract from impending domestic uprisings.
