Singapore Defense Minister warn United States that they are losing geopolitical war in Indo-Pacific

Singapore's Defense Minister, Dr Ng Eng Hen openly warn USA that they are failing geopolitically in the region (South East Asia) despite doing a lot on the military front with the formation of the Quad and AUKUS.

But USA's geopolitical strategy to focus exclusively on Taiwan issue is going to backfire on them as the region is not looking at the developments and US actions favorably.

Dr Ng, basically spells out that USA with merely military-reasoned presence and investment in the region will not give USA the moral legtimacy and influence in the region that they used to have from the 1960s to 2000.

In order for you understand things easier when you watch DPA's future coverage in the region - its probably useful to get to know the general situation over here in the Levant.

Levant is the region stretching from Egypt (some say Libya) all the way through Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, Turkey, Cyprus. (some say Greece too), ends with Iraq (and may include bits of Iran).

Hope this would be helpful for you to be up to date of the situation and will aid you in following the coverage of the Levant region.

This had been a panel that I had been waiting to do for a long long time and finally got it done - and the result of the panel is way way better than I imagined.

Kudos to the quality of the people within the DPA Army (community).

I can assure you, this not NAFO braindead meme-fest. This is a thoughtful discussion of everything Ukraine War related, from a pro-europe/west or pro-ukraine perspective.

...and I bet, if you are a neutral, you are going to enjoy this 3-parts panels very much.

Thank you to all these brave peeps for turning up - its not easy to be pro-ukr in a majority pro-russian community.

And I hope this will encourage more pro-ukraine or pro-europe viewers to come on the DPA Open Mic, to discussion everything thats important in the world today.

Analysis/Dissection of Leaked US-NATO-Ukraine Docs by former professional solders | DPA Panels

Panelists:
- Wyatt (host / sponsor)

An unusual situation happened in the Ukraine-War-Infosphere, where a set of US-NATO-Ukraine military document had appeared online, in an apparently leak. People have mixed opinions about it, some think its legit, others believe its fake or misinformation.

To "clear the air", Wyatt of Defense Politics Asia, a former intel specialist from the Singapore Armed Forces, together with former US Marine Corp veteran, Dan Castle, decided to dive deep into this 5 page documents that DPA managed to get our hands on as per the recording, to dissect it for you, in as clearly as we humanly can.

(As of publishing of this recording, more pages had appeared online - DPA may decide to do a follow up panel to this one in due time)
