In this episode of the Contested Ground podcast, co-host Steve Kuper and returning co-host Liam Garman unpack the fallout of the American special forces raid in Venezuela.
The pair also discuss the broader global ramifications emerging as a result of the American direct action in Latin America, including:
- The real motivations behind America’s raid and why simple claims of regime change or pursuit of oil may not be as clear-cut as some would have us believe.
- Ongoing concerns about security and stability in the Middle East following revelations of significant strategic military deployments from the US to Europe and the region.
- The sociopolitical challenges facing Australia and allied nations as protests unfold in cities across the world, with political discourse shifting from the Middle East to Venezuela and claims of American imperialism.
- The ramifications of fraying, sectarian political debates and echo chambers that undermine social cohesion and national stability.
