At the end of February 2022, the war returned to the gates of Europe with the invasion of Ukraine. Alongside the military escalation, however, there is another conflict that has already upset the global balance: the economic and financial war between the West and Moscow, a duel of offensives and threats ranging from central banks to energy supplies. What impacts to expect? What will become of globalization, as we have known it? Alberto Magnani ed Enrico Marro they try to answer in the 10 episodes of War Economy, the Sole 24 Ore podcast to explain and tell the effects of the Ukrainian war on the international economy. You will find it on all major platforms and on the Sole 24 Ore website.
War economy, out April 15 and edited by Andrea Franceschi (Sole 24 Ore journalist, editor-in-chief) eMassimo Brugnone (podcast producer del Sole 24 Ore), retraces the conflict between Moscow, Kiev and the West with the interpretation of economic and financial journalism: European dependence on Russian gas and oil, the various sanctions against and from Moscow, market turbulence , the impacts on the food crisis and on an already faltering globalization. And again, moving on a more political or geopolitical horizon, the intertwined future of the United States and China, the attempts of the EU to free itself from the energy gogo of Moscow and to equip itself with an autonomous defense, up to the “weapons” of communication unsheathed by the president Ukrainian Zelensky and his Russian counterpart Putin.
The episodes, debuting today April 15, will continue at the rate of one release a day until April 24. A date that coincides, not surprisingly, with the two-month deadline since the start of a war that has called Europe and the world into question. By letting us enter a “war economy” regime, a war economy that will leave its mark as much and more than the battles on the border.
