About

I’m Pyotr Kurzin, host of The Global Gambit. I’ve spent years working across Africa and Eastern Europe with the World Bank and the International Crisis Group, and trained in strategic studies and economic statecraft at Johns Hopkins SAIS. This isn’t second-hand commentary — it’s first-hand field and policy experience brought straight to you. Half British and half Russian, I bring a Cold War lens to today’s conflicts and crises. Plenty of pundits sensationalise for clicks, but here you’ll get clarity and challenge. We all have biases — but the only way to really grow is to test them, step out of our comfort zones, and avoid echo chambers. That’s exactly what this channel is for.

Video Description

Something huge has just happened — and it could mark the real end for Iran’s regime. With ambassadors pulled from Europe and the rial in freefall, Tehran now faces the snapback of United Nations sanctions for the first time in over a decade. This isn’t a symbolic move. The snapback mechanism slams all the old UN measures back into place — arms embargoes, banking restrictions, shipping bans — legally binding on every country. Even Russia and China tried to block it, but failed, leaving Iran isolated and vulnerable. For the regime, this is existential. Concede and lose legitimacy at home, or resist and risk economic collapse. And for the outside world, it’s a test of how far pressure can go before repression hardens or conflict explodes. So in this video, I break down why snapback sanctions could be the final nail in Tehran’s coffin, how even Moscow couldn’t save it, and what this endgame means for the Middle East. Is this the moment Iran’s rulers finally run out of road? 👉 Let me do the overthinking for you.
