Jim Stenman’s interview with Getachew Reda, former President of Tigray, has surpassed 200,000 views on YouTube, added 8,000 new subscribers, and sparked wide coverage in Ethiopian media over Mr. Reda’s warnings about renewed conflict in Tigray and rising tensions with Eritrea. Coverage included local outlets such as Addis Standard, Borkena, and academic journalism Horn Review.
In a separate episode, Stenman and co-host Suzanne Kianpour spoke with Armando Armas, a Venezuelan MP in exile. The conversation fed into a Fox News Live weekend segment hosted by Mike Emanuel, where Kianpour discussed the fallout of a potential U.S. attack on Caracas and spotlighted key points from the GPS interview.
Building on this momentum, Global Power Shifts will roll out more impactful, agenda-setting conversations in the weeks ahead — featuring current and former ministers and frontline reformers, and going deeper on security, migration, and governing in polarized times.
