The Story: Mineral Wars w/ Nicolas Niarchos

Nicolas Niarchos is a journalist whose work focuses on conflicts, migration and, most recently, the energy transition.

Niarchos sits down with Oz to discuss what he’s observed in mineral-rich Congo and Indonesia – and how the battle for geopolitical advantage over these natural resources are overturning the world order.
