E70: The Iran Reckoning — What the crisis means for Europe's politics, and your pocket

DiEM25

About

The Iran war isn't just a Middle East story: it's landing on Europe right now, in energy bills, in supply chains, in political calculations from Berlin to Rome. And the questions most people are asking aren't being answered clearly anywhere.

How exposed are we in Europe really, and why? Who gets hit hardest? What will this crisis do to European politics as elections approach — and how will people express their anger?

In this livestream, Wolfgang Munchau joins Yanis Varoufakis and Mehran Khalili for a live conversation that goes beyond the headlines: what's actually happening, what it means for ordinary people across Europe, and what — if anything — can still be done.
