Description

With one tweet about the outlines of a peace deal between Ukraine and Russia, the world's richest man Elon Musk elicited a derisive response from Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, waves of accolades from Russian government sites, and tons of international press with scholars debating the merits of his proposal. Doorstep co-hosts Nick Gvosdev and Tatiana Serafin ask Puck's Teddy Schleifer if this is a new billionaire model of international relations or a one-time global phenomenon. How are monied interests shaping foreign policy ahead of the U.S. midterm elections in November? And where is dark money flowing? For more, please go to carnegiecouncil.org.
