This week on Bunker Global: We ask what it will take for Ukraine to achieve NATO membership following their summit in Lithuania, take a closer look at the civilians caught in the crossfire between Boko Haram and the Nigerian Army, and finally Artificial Intelligence promised not to destroy humanity in an AI press conference in Geneva, do we trust it? Dipo Faloyin, senior editor for global news at Vice, and Mark Webber, professor of international politics at the University of Birmingham, join Andrew Harrison to get you up to speed on what you need to know about news and politics from across the world. “Zelenskyy is probably happier this afternoon than he was 24 hours ago.” – Mark Webber “The government claims if you live in a certain area you must have sympathies towards Boko Haram.” – Dipo Faloyin “A.I. havens will be the Tax havens of the future.” – Andrew Harrison Link to Dipo’s Article: ‘They Just Shoot and Burn’: Civilians Targeted in Nigeria’s War on Boko Haram www.patreon.com/bunkercast Written and presented by Andrew Harrison with Dipo Faloyin.
