  • Summary

  • Welcome to the Jay Martin Show. Today, Jay speaks with geopolitical expert Ronan Wordsworth about the intensifying competition for resources and influence in Africa. They discuss how China’s initial dominance in Africa through investments in infrastructure and natural resources has met challenges, as other nations now scramble for access to the continent's critical minerals. They also explore military dynamics in the South Pacific, with China ramping up assertiveness in response to economic struggles and regional shifts, and touch on U.S.-China tensions regarding Taiwan. Wordsworth offers insights into the strategic consequences of these geopolitical maneuvers and the potential long-term outcomes. https://www.youtube.com/@thegeopoliticalpickle https://geopoliticalfutures.com/author/rwordsworth_author/ The Commodity University: https://thecommodityuniversity.com/ Sign up for my free weekly newsletter at https://jaymartin.substack.com/subscribe Be part of our online investment community: https://cambridgehouse.com https://twitter.com/JayMartinBC https://www.instagram.com/jaymartinbc https://www.facebook.com/TheJayMartinShow https://www.linkedin.com/company/cambridge-house-international 0:00 - Intro 2:18 - The Shift in Chinese Investment in Africa 5:14 - Key Regions for China's Investment: West, Central, and East Africa 7:16 - Why Chinese Investments Slowed and Who's Competing Now 9:55 - The U.S. Steps into Africa 13:33 - Middle Eastern Influence: UAE, Saudi, and Turkey in Africa 15:48 - The Role of Russia and Iran in African Conflicts 18:52 - Are Coups in Africa Linked to Global Power Struggles? 24:10 - The New Scramble for Africa's Resources 26:42 - Can the U.S. Still Compete with China in Africa? 29:32 - The U.S. Versus China in Africa: Is It Too Late? 34:06 - How China Uses Soft Power in Africa 36:05 - China's Economic Stimulus and Its Global Impact 38:15 - China's Assertiveness in the South Pacific and Taiwan 41:05 - Is China Ready for a Military Move on Taiwan? 45:50 - Could Taiwan Be Another Hong Kong? 48:45 - How Will Regional Powers Respond to a Chinese Invasion of Taiwan? 50:47 - Can the U.S. Handle a Third Conflict?
