Iran winning propaganda war with LEGO-inspired viral content

The US–Israeli war has unleashed another battlefield taking place on social media as AI propaganda goes viral. Misinformation is spreading fast, from both sides, with President Trump reportedly fooled by an AI-generated attack on a US naval ship. Many of the Iranian videos are designed to entertain, clocking up millions of views with Tehran appearing to win the information war with LEGO-inspired content. What Iran may lack in military might, it is making up for it with asymmetric warfare: alongside a campaign of economic sabotage, it's now attempting to shape popular opinion. Will it win? Joining Enda Brady for this discussion: Kelsey Farish Artificial Intelligence Lawyer Dominic O’Meara Founder of Supernova Tine Munk Senior Criminology Lecturer at Nottingham Trent University Ljubomir Filipovic Political scientist To access the back catalogue of Roundtable discussions https://www.youtube.com/@RoundtableTRTWorld Hosted on Acast.

NATO future uncertain as Trump 'considers' pulling out

US President Donald Trump says he is considering pulling out of NATO over the alliance's unwillingness to support the US-Israeli war on Iran. Mark Rutte has strongly backed Washington and Trump's war on Iran, arguing that the move is intended to make the world safer, putting him at odds with several European allies who oppose the conflict. Rutte has claimed that NATO is stronger under Trump, pointing to increased defence spending commitments, with members now aiming for 5% of GDP. But is the NATO chief doing whatever he can to keep Trump on side so he doesn't pull out of NATO?

Is Europe's populist right turning away from Trump over Iran war?

Are right-wing European parties distancing themselves from President Trump over the Iran war? One of Donald Trump’s promises in his America First movement was to end the era of prolonged and damaging wars abroad. With that firmly back on the agenda, major parties which had aligned themselves with Trump's populist ideology, such as the Alternative for Germany, French National Rally and even Reform UK are splitting with the US President over the war. Will the US-Israeli war on Iran see the end of the Transatlantic populist alliance?

How will your travel plans be impacted by the Iran war?

The Iran war is having a devastating impact on the travel industry in what many are calling the worst global aviation crisis since the COVID-19 pandemic. Thousands of flights have been cancelled, with major airspaces across the Middle East closed and airlines forced to reroute planes via longer journeys. Popular holiday destinations such as Dubai are now off limits, with thousands of holidaymakers and expats returning home. How will war in the Middle East impact European travellers as the spring and summer holidays fast approach?

Has Giorgia Meloni turned against Trump over Iran?

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni was supposed to be Europe’s ‘Trump whisperer’ but her criticism of the US-Israeli war on Iran has exposed cracks in her relationship with the US president. With public opinion in Italy overwhelmingly against being drawn into another Middle East conflict and the Meloni losing a crucial referendum on judicial reforms, she is balancing public opinion alongside her ties with Trump. So, what now for relations between Rome and Washington?

Could China be the real winner of the US-Israeli war on Iran?

What could China win and lose from the US-Israeli war on Iran? China is a major buyer of Iranian energy and a vocal critic of the conflict, urging peace talks to end the war. With President Trump antagonising European allies over their resistant to help unblock the Strait of Hormouz, could China now present itself as a stable global ally - and what does it mean for Beijing's ambitions to reunify Taiwan?

How long can the US afford to wage war on Iran?

The cost of the US-Israeli war on Iran has been mounting since the conflict began on February 28. In the first six days of ‘Operation Epic Fury,’ the US spent $11.3 billion. By day 12, that figure surged to $16.5 billion. As of March 19, new estimates suggest the total has crossed the $18 billion mark. So, how much longer can the US afford to wage war as Iranians fight back with its stockpiles of cheap drones and ballistic missiles?

Divisions in Europe exposed as impact of Iran war hits

Europe has been caught off guard by the escalating US-Israeli war on Iran and now the consequences are hitting hard. From rising energy prices to the risk of inflation and political divisions, European leaders are scrambling to respond. The EU has rejected Trump's call for military action in Strait of Hormuz as well as a number of other countries, including the UK. The US President is attempting to unblock the strategic waterway to enable the flow of oil, fertiliser and other crucial goods to pass. As some countries refuse military involvement and others push for diplomacy, Europe is looking divided. Is it prepared for the impact the war on Iran? Joining Enda Brady for this discussion: Roxane Farmanfarmanian Director of International Studies and Global Politics at the University of Cambridge Cecilia Emma Sottilotta Associate Professor of Political Science, University for Foreigners of Perugia Peter Roberts Senior Associate Fellow at the Royal United Services Institute Neil Quilliam Energy and Geopolitics Specialist, Chatham House To access the back catalogue of Roundtable discussions https://www.youtube.com/@RoundtableTRTWorld Hosted on Acast.

UK-US relations hit the rocks over Iran war

The so-called 'special relationship' between the UK and US has become fractured over the US-Israeli war on Iran. US President Donald Trump is angry with Prime Minister Keir Starmer after he refused to allow the US to use UK airbases to launch its initial offensive on Iran. He has since given approval for American aircraft to use UK bases. But how much damage did this decision by the UK government do to relations with the UK's closest ally - and can it be repaired?

The EU plan for ICE-style agents to deport illegal immigrants

Could Europe see ICE-style agents deporting migrants? The EU is voting on tougher measures to tackle immigration with human rights group urging the EU parliament to reject the proposal, warning it could normalise mass detentions, surveillance and racial profiling. Armed US ICE agents have shocked the world with aggressive crackdowns on undocumented migrants. The EU is under pressure from far-right parties to introduce tougher measures to help control borders and deter people from entering illegally - but is this a step too far?

Can the British Royal family survive Andrew's arrest over Epstein files?

The King's brother, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office linked to the Epstein files. Can the Royal family survive another scandal, the biggest to rock the institution in modern times? Following his brother's arrest, King Charles said he had "the deepest concern“, adding the police would have "our full and wholehearted support and co-operation." Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has denied wrongdoing. Former UK Ambassador to the US, Peter Mandelson, has also been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office linked to the Epstein file. He also denies wrongdoing but there are further questions for UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer over why Mandelson was appointed to the high profile position.
