In a live recording at the Qatar Economic Forum, Stephanie Flanders hosts a discussion with John Micklethwait, Ziad Daoud, and Dina Esfandiary about the implications of "Trumponomics" for the Middle East. The conversation covers Donald Trump's recent visit to the region, economic deals, geopolitical shifts, and the normalization of relations with Syria. The panel analyzes the region's economic inputs and outputs, the potential for instability, and the changing role of Saudi Arabia as a capital importer. They also discuss the prospects for a nuclear deal with Iran and the ongoing challenges posed by the Israel-Palestinian conflict, ultimately assessing whether the Gulf region can emerge as a relative winner in the evolving global landscape.
