The Truth About Who REALLY Controls the World - Jeffrey Sachs
In this episode of the Fidias Podcast, Member of the European Parliament Fidias Panayiotou sits down with world-renowned economist and professor Jeffrey Sachs for a deep and eye-opening conversation about global politics, economics, and the future of humanity. Sachs breaks down how power, education, and economic development have shaped today’s world — from the rise of China and India to the challenges facing Europe and the United States. He also shares candid insights on U.S. foreign policy, the Ukraine war, global inequality, and the urgent need for diplomacy in an age of nuclear danger.
