Listen "Ex-MI6 Chief & Top German Parliamentarian on its Path Ahead"
Episode Synopsis
Sir Richard Dearlove, the former head of Britain’s MI6, sits down with Roderich Kiesewetter, a current member of the German Bundestag, to discuss what to expect during this weekend’s pivotal German polls. Immigration, foreign policy, and the economy are among the biggest concerns for voters. A rise in support recently for the far-right AfD party has alarmed some observers. Meanwhile, the center-right Christian Democratic Party is hopeful they will hold on to power. Sir Richard and Kiesewetter also speak about tech mogul Elon Musk’s growing role in politics, including in Europe. They also look at how Germany is addressing the threat of Russia and the future of its support for the war in Ukraine.
