We examine the fragile state of the Iran war and its impact on global trade and regional escalation, Russia’s strategic positioning, and the potential for a broader conflict involving Azerbaijan and Turkey. The discussion then turns to the Ukraine war, focusing on attrition, Europe’s growing militarization, and the prospects for a long-term Russia–Europe confrontation. Finally, we explore Russia’s policy in the South Caucasus, including Armenia’s political trajectory, tensions following Pashinyan’s Moscow visit, and the broader balance of power shaping Armenia’s future.</p>https://podcasts.groong.org/watch/534-dmitry-suslov-russia-geopolitics-armenia-iran-war-ukraine-usa-trump-israel-nakhichevan-drones-uav/Sat, 25 Apr 2026 00:11:00 -0700https://podcasts.groong.org/watch/534-dmitry-suslov-russia-geopolitics-armenia-iran-war-ukraine-usa-trump-israel-nakhichevan-drones-uav/<h2 id="episode-summary">Episode Summary</h2> <p>In this episode of the Groong podcast, we speak with Dr. Dmitry Suslov about the shifting geopolitical landscape across the Iran war, the Ukraine conflict, and the South Caucasus.

According to our guest today, it is also about who controls energy, money, technology, and the rules of the next world order. And as the dollar weakens, supply chains shift, and new power blocks take shape.

In fact, within a few years India is expected to overtake China in this area. At the same time, India is the most populous, or largest democracy in the world, and a major regional and nuclear power, with significant technology and defense industries. So it is quickly rising to become a world power, which other major powers can no longer ignore or take for granted. Since the start of the war in Ukraine, Indian-Russian partnership has further developed. India has increased its consumption of Russian gas. India is also a key member of BRICS, which is set to grow much more in influence as a testament to the rearrangement of the world geopolitical order.</p>https://podcasts.groong.org/watch/209-rananjay-anand-indo-armenian-friendship-ngo-india-on-world-stage-economic-trade-defense-relations-hope-promise/Wed, 18 Jan 2023 03:00:00 -0700https://podcasts.groong.org/watch/209-rananjay-anand-indo-armenian-friendship-ngo-india-on-world-stage-economic-trade-defense-relations-hope-promise/<h2 id="episode-summary">Episode Summary</h2> <p>Indo-Armenian Friendship NGO.
