Crisis in the Sahel

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

jeudi 13 août 2026 • Durée 38:12

In episode four of The Assessment, Charlie Edwards is joined by Dr Dan Watson, Research Associate for Conflict, Security and Development at the IISS, and Paul Melly, Consulting Fellow in the Africa Programme at Chatham House, to unpack the deepening crisis across Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso. With insurgents making gains against the Malian junta, is Russia's Africa Corps quietly shifting from counterinsurgency operations to serving as a palace guard?

As the crisis in the Sahel continues to intensify, allied insurgent groups JNIM and the FLA launched dramatic joint offensives in April and July. Our experts explore the redeployment of troops, Mali's conflict economy and the use of urban asphyxiation tactics by insurgents. The AI models were set a challenge in this episode: can they forecast an event when there are few independent media reports, only limited statistics and a stream of unverifiable government statements to ground their answer?

Tune in to find out.

Hormuz: choking the Strait

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

jeudi 30 juillet 2026 • Durée 38:41

In the third episode of The Assessment, Charlie Edwards, Emile Hokayem and Elliot Hentov probe an AI forecast suggesting that it is unlikely that major carriers will announce a full resumption of services through the Strait of Hormuz before the end of the year.

They explore Iran's 17 August fee deadline, the insurance and mine-clearance bottlenecks and what a semi-permanent Cape detour would mean for global trade.

NATO and the five percent

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

jeudi 16 juillet 2026 • Durée 32:58

In episode two of The Assessment, our experts revisit the Hague summit pledge of 5% of GDP on defence by 2035 one year on and ask whether it's already fiscally out of reach for key NATO members.

Host Charlie Edwards is joined by Fenella McGerty, Senior Fellow for Defence Economics at the IISS, and Howard Mustoe, Editor of The Rearmament. They interrogate an AI generated forecast that assesses it is highly likely that, following Spain’s lead, at least one major European member will also publicly seek an exemption, and what that would mean for NATO's unity and capability.

Russia’s fiscal reckoning

The Assessment

Saison 1

lundi 29 juin 2026 • Durée 00:46

Most analysis tells you what just happened. The Assessment podcast asks what comes next.

Hosted by Charlie Edwards, each episode takes a geopolitical question and opens with a forecast generated by an AI-powered platform. That forecast is then put to leading experts who examine its assumptions, identify its limits, and bring regional and subject-matter expertise to bear on the question the models alone cannot resolve. The topics span great-power competition, economic statecraft and the structural forces reshaping international security.

The Assessment podcast show is hosted by Charlie Edwards, Senior Fellow for Strategy & National Security; Head of Analytics, Six Analytic.

The podcast is produced by the IISS Crowd Forecasting, Collective Intelligence and Strategic Risks programme and supported by Acacia.
