I’m Pyotr Kurzin, host of The Global Gambit. I’ve spent years working across Africa and Eastern Europe with the World Bank and the International Crisis Group, and trained in strategic studies and economic statecraft at Johns Hopkins SAIS.
This isn’t second-hand commentary — it’s first-hand field and policy experience brought straight to you. Everyone has biases — but the only way to really grow is to test them, step out of our comfort zones, and avoid echo chambers. That’s exactly what this channel is for. Pyotr prides himself in engaging all sides.

Alright guys, we’re finally going to be starting regular weekly streams, usually solo, but occasionally with guests and fellow creators.
The point is to have a recurring schedule for us to come together - exact timing may change, but right now I’m thinking every Sun 2 pm UK / 9 am EST and Wed 9 pm / 4 pm. That said, vote for your preference below.

Trump is completely losing control of the situation.
Not only does he have no leverage over Iran; he can’t even keep USA number one ally in line.
