Peter Zeihan

Ukraine implications? The USA contra Zeihan isn’t going to walk away from 75+ years of world building into neo-isolationism. The liberal free trading rules based world order isn’t going anywhere. FONOPS and anti-piracy operations shall continue. No famines, no surge in pirates, Zeihan’s predictions are wrong. Instead the USA will do offshore balancing. Basically Zeihan confuses a smart rejection of “nation building” with neo-isolationism. He doesn’t even use the correct terms (nation-building, offshore balancing, neo-isolationism) because he’s basically a showman with good marketing. Though, I suspect his MARKET analysis esp. of petroleum markets and probably also of agriculture is good. But when it comes to military analysis and political predictions like I said from day 1: UKRAINE WILL WIN
THIS ENDS WITH PUTIN DEAD OR IN THE DOCKET FOR WAR CRIMES
THE U.S. LED RULES BASED WORLD ORDER ISN’T GOING TO COLLAPSE
No pirate surge, no famines, and nope the USA isn’t going to tuck turtle and just walk away from the world it spent 75 years, trillions of dollars, and tens of thousands of lives building.
But his market predictions might be accurate!

Might want to get in the business of political biography and market analysis and out of the business of inaccurate war forecasting…
