Jiang Xueqin, Glenn Diesen: Predictions for 2026 – Empire, Rivalry & Collapse

by Glenn Diesen [1-5-2026].

(RAD: In April, Trump is expected to visit China & he wants to negotiate a "grand bargain" between the US & China. The outcome will be very important to watch. The US really should learn to treat China as an equal.

The US went into Venezuela to spite China & cut China out of Venezuela. This has nothing to do with oil.

In the US, silver is used for financial speculation as well as technology manufacturing. In China, silver is used in manufacturing, not financial speculation.

The EU is unable to admit that they are wrong in Ukraine & with respect to Russia. NATO will collapse in Odessa. Trump hates Europe & there is no benefit for the US to help Europe.

Pay close attention to how he characterizes Trump. He is transactional. Facts don't matter to him. Everything is about optics. He is like a Mafia boss. Once you understand these things about Trump, it helps put a lot of things into perspective. There are many other useful insights covered in this interview. — RAD)
