Pyotr Kurzin | Geopolitics
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.
Half British and half Russian, I bring a Cold War lens to today’s conflicts and crises. Plenty of pundits sensationalise for clicks, but here you’ll get clarity and challenge. We all have 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. And if that resonates with you, then you know where to Subscribe!
