Fuel prices in Pakistan have hit a historic high of 400 rupees. While the public is rightfully outraged, the brutal reality is that the state has no buffers, no reserves, and no choice. But this is just the tip of the iceberg. As supply chains for plastics, aluminum, and helium go offline globally, we are entering Phase 1 of a massive economic shift that will redefine the next six months. Are you prepared for what comes next?In this episode, we sit down with Yasir Abbas, a PhD researcher at the University of Manchester and former advisor on Law and Public Policy. We go deep into the multifaceted nature of the Iran-Israel conflict, exploring whether we are truly on the brink of World War III or if we are witnessing a new era of "unilateralism" where international institutions like the UN have been ruptured beyond repair.
