  • The Language of Power: Bomb, bomb Iran!
    2026/03/05
    The United States and Israel have launched a war on Iran — killing Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and top advisers — with aims that appear to shift between forcing a nuclear deal and pursuing regime change. Paul Taylor is joined by Sanam Vakil, Director, Middle East and North Africa Programme at the Chatham House, and Mihai Chihaia, Policy Analyst at the European Policy Centre, to unpack the war’s unclear objectives, the risks of wider regional escalation (from strikes on Gulf infrastructure to proxy attacks and global terrorism), and the economic shockwaves already hitting Europe through spiking oil and liqufied natural gas (LNG) prices. The conversation also examines how Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu have framed the conflict, why the EU and the E3 (Britain, France and Germany) have struggled to hold a consistent line, and what — if anything — Europeans can realistically do now.

  • The Language of Power: Ukraine’s freezing anniversary of invasion
    2026/02/19
    In this episode of The Language of Power, host Paul Taylor examines the grim fourth anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine at a moment of intensified attacks. As Moscow pounds Ukraine’s energy infrastructure with waves of drone and missile strikes, talks between Russia, Ukraine and the US in Geneva quickly concluded without a breakthrough. Despite earlier optimism from US envoy Steve Witkoff, both Russia’s chief negotiator and President Volodymyr Zelenskyy describe the talks as “difficult”, with Zelenskyy indicating that further rounds may follow. Ahead of the high-stakes talks, Paul is joined by Elena Davlikanova, fellow at the Centre for European Policy Analysis in Kyiv, and Amanda Paul, deputy head of the EPC’s Europe in the World programme in Brussels. Together, they discuss the impact of energy attacks on Ukrainian morale, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s position in high-stakes diplomacy, Europe’s growing role in supporting Ukraine, the credibility of proposed security guarantees, and the prospects for Ukraine’s future EU membership.

  • Trump’s rogue Board of Peace
    2026/02/04
    In this episode of The Language of Power, host Paul Taylor explores US President Donald Trump’s controversial new Board of Peace — a body created to implement his Gaza plan but aiming for a far broader global role. Launched with fanfare in Davos and joined mostly by authoritarian states, the Board raises serious concerns about its ambitions, legitimacy, and potential to sideline the UN. Most EU countries have declined to participate, yet with a UN Security Council resolution assigning the Board a role in Gaza’s reconstruction, Europe risks losing influence by staying out. Paul is joined by Dave Troy, investigative journalist, and Silvia Colombo, researcher at the NATO Defence College, to unpack the Board’s origins, membership, and implications for European diplomacy, the future of Gaza, and the wider international order.
