Trump, Venezuela, And Implications For Asia

Please join Chief Geopolitical Strategist Matt Gertken and Strategist Jesse Kuri for a Webcast, Thursday, January 15 at 10:30 AM HKT, 1:30 PM AEDT.

Matt and Jesse will discuss:

• Unilateral US action to remove Venezuela’s president raises important questions for the geopolitical outlook, including for Asia.
• What are the implications for China and Russia? Will Ukraine negotiations or the US-China trade truce suffer setbacks? How will US allies like Japan be affected?
• Will the Trump administration be emboldened to take more aggressive actions against the likes of Cuba and Iran? What about North Korea?
• Will the US seize Greenland from Denmark as part of reasserting the Monroe Doctrine? What will become of NATO in that case?
• Will China assert its own sphere of influence? Which markets would be most affected and how? Will the risk of conflict in Taiwan rise?
• What are the global economic, monetary, and financial implications of Great Power exceptionalism? Is there a decline in international rules and norms? What’s the investment impact?
