Week in Review: China Reaches the Moon, Israel Tests Its Defense, Nord Stream Resumes, and Much More
Show Notes
- The Electoral College has voted for Joe Biden as next president of the United States, but more evidence of America’s election having been hacked is being revealed all the time, and Donald Trump’s path to the presidency is still open.
- Israel successfully conducted its first-ever multilayered defense test, and is now considering sharing this cutting-edge technology with the Arab states with which it is building alliances. This highlights the potential dark side of these Israeli-Arab peace deals.
- The Nord Stream pipeline project between Germany and Russia that had shut down because of American sanctions is now back under construction. Will they complete it?
- We also talk about China’s successful moon landing, Uzbekistan joining the Eurasian Economic Union, Sweden massively boosting its defense budget, and a Trump administration lawyer advising Americans to stock up on guns and ammunition.
