    Decoding “Signalgate”: US War Plans Leak | Geeta's World, Ep 121

Despite mounting pressure, the White House continues to downplay the security breach, dismissing the report as a hoax. In this episode of Geeta’s World, we break down the leaked messages, the political fallout, and what this means for U.S. national security. Tune in!

    Geopolitics Wrapped 2024: When India’s neighbourhood said China first, global anti-incumbency, & more | Geeta's World, Ep 115

    2024 wasn't just a year of elections but a year of reckoning. Dubbed the "super year," it witnessed a global wave of anti-incumbency. From the UK to South Africa, Japan to France, ruling parties, whether left or right, were humbled—or defeated outright. What does this global rejection of incumbents signify? Do these trends signal a demand for genuine systemic change or simply a cyclical rejection of the status quo? Back home, following the grand success of the G20 summit in 2023, this year, cracks emerged in its "Neighbourhood First" policy as relations with Myanmar, Nepal, Maldives, Bangladesh, Pakistan, China, and Sri Lanka faltered. Experts suggest a strategic shift may be overdue. So, how should India's foreign diplomacy and global standing be assessed today? Has its global stature diminished? In this episode of Geeta's World, our host, Anna Priyadarshini, and the foreign affairs editor at India Today, TV Today Network, Geeta Mohan, discuss! Produced by Anna Priyadarshini Sound Mix by Nitin Rawat Chapters: (3:30) — "Super-year" of elections (11:23) — Donald Trump’s Victory (21:40) — Israel-Hamas War (31:26) — India’s Global standing (37:59) — A reset in India-China relations?

  8. Germany Christmas Attack: Accused Saudi Psychiatrist Not An Islamophobe, But Is Germany Becoming One? | Geeta's World, Ep 114

    Germany Christmas Attack: Accused Saudi Psychiatrist Not An Islamophobe, But Is Germany Becoming One? | Geeta's World, Ep 114

    On December 20, tragedy struck Magdeburg's Christmas market when a black SUV ploughed through holiday shoppers. Four women and a nine-year-old boy died, while 200 others were injured, including seven Indians. The suspect, Taleb Al-Abdulmohsen, a 50-year-old Saudi psychiatrist, has been arrested. He had been granted asylum in Germany in 2016 and was critical of the “Islamism of Europe.” He is also a staunch supporter of the far-right and anti-immigrant Alternative for Germany (AfD) party. And Nancy Faeser, Germany’s interior minister, said after the attack that he was “obviously Islamophobic”. So, what do we know of this man, and was this attack political? And, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz faces backlash over alleged security lapses, as Saudi Arabia had flagged Al-Abdulmohsen’s radical views as early as 2007 and had requested extradition. Germany refused, fearing for his safety. So, why did Germany ignore Saudi warnings? In this episode of Geeta's World, our host, Anna Priyadarshini, and the foreign affairs editor at India Today, TV Today Network, Geeta Mohan, discuss! Produced by Anna Priyadarshini Sound Mix by Nitin Rawat Chapters: (7:47) — The curious case of the accused (13:24) — Only AFD can save Germany? (19:06) — Berlin freezing asylum applications from Syrians (21:50) — Why did Germany ignore Saudi's alerts? (29:57) —  Rise of Islamist terror in Europe (39:21) — Proliferation of the far-right in Europe
