Unfortunately no English subtitles on this one but for German speakers this could be interesting, something to share with acquaintances who need to be deprogrammed out of mainstream media brainwashing re: Russia/China. I am so used to German political commentary being bottom of the barrel garbage that i was surprised to stumble onto this interview where for once a German program is presenting intelligent and realistic analysis.

From the video description:

"Stephan Ossenkopp is a freelance journalist and a proven expert on the BRICS alliance with a particular focus on China. He has already traveled to the country several times and, as deputy chairman of the Civil Rights Movement Solidarity (BüSo), advocates for stronger relations with China. On his blog “The Multipolar World” he regularly highlights the development of the BRICS alliance and the new member states, including Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Iran, which have been strengthening the alliance since 2024.

In this interview we talk about the BRICS alliance as a growing counterpoint to the G7 and its role in a multipolar world order. We examine the question of how BRICS could change geopolitical and economic structures and to what extent the alliance can reorganize the global world order with its new financial and trade architecture."

I don’t know much about this channel other than that the interviewer used to work for RT and has had a bunch of hit/smear pieces written about her by German media. Judging from the titles of some of the other videos on this channel it seems to be a mixed bag with some probably decent interviews, at least on the geopolitics and economics side, but also some that are almost certainly just reactionaries spewing culture war talking points.
