In today’s episode we talk about, How the Iran situation has exposed the non-existence of a collective west or of any real alliance between Europe and the United States. Then we talk about how the United States is now replacing Lloyds of London and by extension Britain as the world's premier shipping insurance provider and what that means. And after that we'll briefly discuss the Shield of the Americas summit and the birth of a new Good Neighbor policy under Trump. All that and more!
