Irish government forced to act after six days of fuel protests

For six days, Ireland's roads and major cities were brought to a standstill as fuel protests swept the country. Farmers and lorry drivers blockaded gas depots, motorways and Ireland’s only oil refinery, protesting at rising fuel costs due to the ongoing disruption in the Strait of Hormuz. Motorists panic bought fuel, leading to the closure of hundreds of petrol stations as they ran dry. The government has announced a 550 million dollar package to help but will it be enough to prevent further protests? Joining Enda Brady to discuss: Frances Fitzgerald, Ireland’s former deputy prime minister Fionnan Sheahan, Ireland Editor of the Irish Independent Jonathan Healy, a broadcaster and managing director of the PR firm Healy Communications. And Kevin Meagher, who is a writer and commentator on British and Irish politics. To access the back catalogue of Roundtable discussions https://www.youtube.com/@RoundtableTRTWorld Hosted on Acast.

Are we heading for a global recession?

The world may be edging closer to a global recession as the US-Israeli war on Iran sends shockwaves through the global economy. At the centre of the crisis is the Strait of Hormuz, a vital route now effectively disrupted, cutting off a significant share of global energy supply and pushing oil prices towards or even beyond $150 a barrel. Markets are rattled, trade routes are under strain and fears of prolonged economic damage are rising. So how close are we to a full-blown recession and will this conflict tip the global economy over the edge? Joining Enda Brady for this discussion: Chris Weafer Founding Partner of Macro-Advisory Ann Pettifor British Economist and Director of Policy Research in Macroeconomics Matthew Agarwala Economist and Bennett Chair of Sustainable Finance, Bennett Institute, University of Sussex.

Is Europe running out of fuel?

Fuel rationing is being introduced in some European countries over fears of a global energy shortage as the Iran war continues. With the Strait of Hormuz effectively closed, the final fuel tankers are expected to reach Europe by mid-April. The EU has warned that member states should consider travelling less and working from home to conserve energy with European Energy Commissioner Dan Jorgensen saying the EU is preparing for a "long-lasting" energy crisis. Some Asian nations are already experiencing energy shortages. A state of national emergency has been declared in the Philippines, while Bangladesh has closed its universities over fears that fuel reserves will soon run out. The aviation industry is also in turmoil, with many flights delayed or grounded due to rising fuel costs. How soon could Europe run out of fuel and what measures may European leaders be forced to implement? Joining Enda Brady for this discussion: Thomas O’Donnell Energy and Geopolitics Strategist Olga Khakova Non-resident Fellow at the Atlantic Council’s Global Energy Centre.

Sanchez defies Trump's 'illegal war', approves $5B handout

The Spanish Prime Minister, Pedro Sanchez, has denounced the US-Israeli war in Iran as ‘illegal’ and is putting in measures to help Spaniards deal with the economic fallout. The socialist leader has described the conflict as a ‘global economic earthquake’ and appears determined to shield his people and ensure they do not pay the price for the escalating crisis in the Middle East. Sanchez is the first EU leader to act, unveiling a €5B rescue package for households and businesses. Beyond the financial aid, he has banned US military aircraft from using Spanish airspace and bases. Will this bold defiance protect the Spanish people and secure his political future?

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?
