In this episode of the ASIAL Security Insider Podcast, we speak with Jacinta Carrol. Jacinta is an internationally recognised security expert, with experience in the Australian government, thinktanks and universities. Jacinta was the inaugural head of the Australian Strategic Policy Institute’s Counter-Terrorism Policy Centre, Senior Fellow at the Australian National University’s National Security College and she holds Visiting Fellowships. She has taught security professionals in Australia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Singapore, the USA, and the Middle East.

We look at the impact of the US withdrawal of forces in Afghanistan on the state of global terrorism, the potential for escalation in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the likelihood of an escalation in tensions with China.
