New program launched by Le Média

Le Média has launched a new program called Géostratégix, presented by Sara Trabi and featuring geopolitical analyst Pascal Boniface. The show aims to make international news more accessible by combining journalistic perspectives with expert analysis.

Focus on recent elections

In a recent episode, Trabi and Boniface discussed the impact of three major elections in Israel, Brazil, and Serbia. These elections are seen as pivotal moments in the political landscapes of their respective countries.

Israeli legislative elections

In Israel, legislative elections could mark a turning point after nearly twenty years of power by Benjamin Netanyahu. His main rival, Gadi Eisenkot, a former chief of staff of the Israeli army, is positioning himself as an alternative.

Tight race and potential coalitions

The results are expected to be tight, with several coalition scenarios possible, including potential support from Arab parties. The episode also questioned whether a change of government could lead to a shift in Israeli policy towards Palestinians, given the ongoing conflict in Gaza and the country's diplomatic isolation.

Lula's victory in Brazil

In Brazil, Lula won a fourth presidential term with nearly 52% of the votes, defeating Flávio Bolsonaro, son of former far-right president Jair Bolsonaro. Despite his victory, Lula faces challenges from a still influential right-wing in Parliament and must navigate political tensions and increasing American influence in Latin America.

Student-led victory in Serbia

In Serbia, a list supported by students won the legislative elections after nearly two years of mobilization against Aleksandar Vučić, who has been in power for fourteen years. The episode explored how these young people managed to achieve a parliamentary majority where traditional opposition had failed and whether this victory could inspire student movements in France and other parts of Europe.
