After years backing a failed coup attempt, France's Emmanuel Macron and US climate envoy John Kerry met with Venezuela's constitutionally elected President Nicolás Maduro at the UN's COP27 conference in Egypt. The Biden administration still technically recognizes unelected coup leader Juan Guaidó, but is desperate to lower oil prices after Saudi Arabia and OPEC+ refused Washington's requests to increase production.

A history of how the US military-industrial complex was created, with its deep links to Wall Street, following the National Security Council's top secret memo NSC 68: a blueprint for the first cold war. First cold war architect George Kennan wrote in 1987: "Were the Soviet Union to sink tomorrow under the waters of the ocean, the American military-industrial complex would have to go on, substantially unchanged, until some other adversary could be invented. Anything else would be an unacceptable shock to the American economy." This is PART 13 of the Empire and the Deep State series Multipolarista editor Ben Norton is co-hosting with historian Aaron Good and producer Seamus McGuinness of the American Exception podcast.
