Struggling for Economic Progress as Global Recession Looms in 2023 | GZERO World with Ian Bremmer

What's in store for the global economy in 2023? Well, it's not going to be pretty.
A raging war in Europe, sky-high inflation, and an unstable China will create strong economic headwinds in the year to come. But it's not all doom and gloom. Ian Bremmer looks at the state of the global economy in this new year with renowned global economist, Dambisa Moyo, to put it all into perspective on GZERO World.
Global inflation is not going anywhere anytime soon as the likelihood of a worldwide recession looms large. And yet, for most of us living here on Planet Earth, now is the best time to be alive in human history. Globalization has brought prosperity to billions worldwide. And in the United States, the economy has made it out of the pandemic remarkably well.
But will out of control inflation, an unstable China, and a rogue Russia change this equation in 2023? Moyo discusses how these combined threats will affect the world economy this year.
"We're now over 8 billion people. Issues around inequality, issues around supply, as well as climate transition energy issues, and debt. And so there are ongoing challenges, that we were already facing, but I think those things will be accelerated in 2023," she explains.
With Israel and the US heading to the polls, could elections change the course of the Middle East’s conflicts? Brett McGurk joins Ian Bremmer to discuss the Iran war, escalating Houthi attacks, and whether Washington has a strategy to contain the turmoil.
Think you know what's going on around the world? Here's your chance to prove it.
Even as Israel grows increasingly isolated on the world stage, there is one region where a whole swath of newly-elected leaders can't seem to get enough of the Jewish State: Latin America.
