Friday Focus: Why Putin’s visit to North Korea matters
The Friday Focus podcast starts this week with Rudyard Griffiths and Janice Stein discussing the big international news story of the week: Russian President Vladimir Putin’s visit to North Korea. Find out why Janice says this meeting between these two states is a sign that the international liberal order is officially dead. And in the second half of the podcast, available exclusively to our Munk donors, Rudyard and Janice discuss the recent Munk Debate on Anti-Zionism.
