Myles Yu分析了朝鲜向俄罗斯派遣军队参与乌克兰战争的原因。他认为这是基于朝鲜与俄罗斯之间达成的协议,朝鲜提供特种部队,以换取俄罗斯的粮食、能源和军事技术援助。这一举动在瓦格纳兵变之后显得尤为重要,因为俄罗斯需要补充兵力。朝鲜此举也反映了其反西方的意识形态立场。 Myles Yu进一步阐述了朝鲜参与乌克兰战争对国际局势的影响。他认为,这使得战争国际化,并凸显了无人机战争和全球安全问题日益融合的趋势。他指出,朝鲜的参与标志着极权主义政权与自由世界之间界限的明确划分,并改变了战争的性质和参与者的构成。

Shownotes Transcript

South Korean intelligence services have revealed credible evidence that North Korea has deployed upwards of 12,000 troops for training and ultimately combat alongside Russia in the war against Ukraine. Miles Yu analyzes the significance of this escalation what this signals for the anti-western axis of Russia, China and North Korea.  Second, with the US presidential election reaching its apex, the economy, and tariffs, are in the spotlight. Miles retraces what lead to the tariffs on Chinese imports started during Trump's first term, and why they  have had such strong bipartisan support. Finally, Miles details why China has so few Nobel laureates, and why the four winners they have had don't receive the heroes treatment you might expect.
