Porkopolis Economics covers macroeconomics, money, and sports from the creator of the Crypto Voices podcast, Matthew Mezinskis.
Matthew takes a comprehensive look at global military expenditures in this episode, focusing on 2023 data and historical averages. Using insights from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, he analyzes spending trends as a percentage of GDP. He highlights key players such as NATO countries, the United States, China, Russia, and Ukraine.
The discussion delves into regional dynamics, including the militarization of Eastern Europe, Ukraine's staggering defense spending amid ongoing conflict, and the geopolitical motivations behind these figures. Matthew also touches on the role of collective defense in NATO and the broader implications of military expenditures on global stability.
