Fresh voices from the Global South lead DW's 'Global Eyes'
DW's international affairs podcast Global Eyes is back with new hosts Waslat Hasrat-Nazimi and Shani Rozanes, exploring the shifting world order with Global South perspectives on power, security and regional dynamics. With the tagline 'A different perspective on geopolitics!', Global Eyes explores how the global order is evolving beyond the traditional West-centric lens. Each 30-minute, monthly episode dives into key international developments with a particular focus on the Global South's role in shaping the future. What does India's rise mean for the world? Where does Europe stand in a multipolar era? And how are security concerns redefined across continents? Designed for globally minded, English-speaking audiences — especially younger, well-educated listeners across India and the South Asian diaspora — Global Eyes offers context-rich insights and accessible analysis on security, geopolitics, and the evolving role of the Global South in a changing world. Debarati Guha, Director Programs for Asia, says: "With its new season, Global Eyes takes on a broader, more inclusive perspective on international affairs. Hosted by Waslat Hasrat-Nazimi and Shani Rozanes, the podcast brings fresh voices and lived experience from the Global South into the conversation – offering well-informed insights into the shifting dynamics of global power." "The news may show what feels like isolated events, but what may seem like separate crises are often part of the same global story," podcast hosts Waslat and Shani explain. "We're here to connect the dots behind the headlines. We challenge the old lens of reporting by putting marginalized perspectives at the center. Global Eyes brings in voices from the Global South, not as an afterthought, but as a central part of understanding the new world order."

India-Pakistan clash: the dangerous ‘new normal' – DW – 05/24/2025
Both sides have claimed victory in the most recent violent confrontation over Kashmir. DW's security podcast Global Eyes takes a look at the implications for South Asia as well as China and US. Both India and Pakistan are claiming victory in their most recent violent clash over Kashmir. Indian PM Narendra Modi and his counterpart in Islamabad Shehbaz Sharif however welcomed the truce, which US President Donald Trump proudly claimed had ended the 500 years of fighting between the two sides —Kashmir has repeatedly been a source of conflict between India and Pakistan since the end of British colonial rule in 1947. China's close relationship with Pakistan appears to have become even closer. Pakistan Army Chief—Field Marshal Aasim Munir has seen his public approval rating soar. Islamabad relied on Chinese-made missiles and aircraft which faced India's Western-made military technology for the first time. Both sides also deployed drones in the conflict. India has said Pakistan will not get water from Indian-controlled rivers—which would breach water sharing agreements that have withstood previous wars between the two nations. And what of the people of Kashmir—what do they want for their future and is anybody asking them? Guests Praveem Donthi of the International Crisis Group and indpendent analyst Sahar Khan join our hosts to look at the domestic, regional and interntional implications of the clash between the nuclear-armed rivals. Are there really any winners?
