Scott Bessent’s mentor.
Read my effort post here a while back about the Asian Financial Crisis in 1997. He was instrumental in bringing down the rise of ASEAN and the proposed East Asian Economic Caucus that was to form the ASEAN +3 (China, Japan and South Korea) independent of Bill Clinton’s APEC designs for the US Asia-Pacific strategy.
I’ll leave you to decide if Soros is merely a forex trader or an agent of American imperialism who just so happened to conveniently crush the rising Southeast Asian economy the moment they wanted to decouple from American hegemony.
It is also very interesting that his protege, Scott Bessent, is now running Trump’s trade war.
