What's an Economic Security Agreement and Why Does the U.S. Need Them? With Peter Harrell
Derisky Business is returning for season 2! After a brief hiatus in which obviously nothing (nothing!) notable happened in the world of trade and economic security, Emily and Geoff are back to dive in on all your favorite economic security topics. In their first episode back, they are joined by Peter Harrell, the Host of the "Security Economics" podcast, to discuss the concept of economic security agreements and why the U.S. should start bringing economic security priorities like export controls into formal trade deals.
