Zuckerberg, Trump, Elon, Fidias, Volt, ELAM: An analysis with Natasa Loizou and Costa Constanti

International Relations experts Natasa Loizou and Costa Constanti give their analysis on the political landscape that is forming and the business aspect of it. With Eleni, they discuss Zuckerberg's recent announcement to get rid of Meta's fact-checkers and what it means for the future of information, Elon's attempts to become ruler of the world, what role Fidias Panayiotou, our MEP, plays in this formation of rulers and how politics have turned into a game of clicks and views. They also discuss the 2026 Parliament elections in Cyprus, how Volt needs to work on their messaging and how ELAM must be dealt with. The discussion also includes references to AI and ChatGPT and how the need for cooling systems will play a role in politics, journalism and the need for investigative work, and the mistrust in science and research.
