In this episode, we sit down with Robert Mogielnicki, Senior Resident Scholar at the Arab Gulf States Institute in Washington (AGSIW), to unpack the political and economic forces shaping the Gulf.
We discuss the region’s economic diversification journey, the influence of political dynamics on decision-making, and the role of international capital, as well as Gulf relations with China, Russia, and the U.S.
From Kuwait’s investment landscape to currency pegs, and from energy dependence to future economic strategy, this conversation offers a detailed look inside the Gulf’s political economy and diversification.
