In this week’s segment, Steve Okun, CEO of APAC Advisors, joins us to unpack three major geopolitical shifts shaping Asia’s strategic landscape.
First, the fallout from the Trump administration’s sweeping 50% tariffs on Indian imports. With up to $48 billion in exports at risk, India is urgently courting new trade partners—including China, Russia, and Brazil—raising questions about whether Washington’s hardline stance is inadvertently nudging New Delhi closer to Beijing.
Next to Beijing’s upcoming Victory Day parade, where North Korea’s Kim Jong Un and Russia’s Vladimir Putin will appear publicly alongside Xi Jinping. This rare trilateral show of force signals a deepening axis of defiance against Western pressure, with implications for regional security and diplomatic alignment.
Finally, Indonesia’s evolving leadership under President Prabowo Subianto.... with his military background and assertive approach to civilian affairs, what does his presidency mean for Southeast Asia’s largest democracy and its role in the Indo-Pacific.
