AMMAN - HE Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh, founder and chairman of Talal Abu-Ghazaleh Global Digital (TAG.GD), was hosted in an exclusive interview on the “Spot Shot” platform, addressing a number of key economic, political and intellectual issues starting with the recent cyberattack on TAG.GD, as well as his insights on the future of the World Order.
During the interview, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh stated that TAG.GD was among several leading global companies targeted in a cyberattack. However, he affirmed that his Organization had successfully dealt with the incident, emphasizing that all data has always been securely backed up in two different countries.
Moreover, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh went on to say that the TAG.GD was targeted precisely because it is the only Arab company engaged in the technology industry that manufactures and produces laptops, tablets and smartphones in Jordan, Egypt, and Lebanon that professionally competes with global brands worldwide. 
Addressing the Arab youth, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh underscored the importance of innovation, highlighting his recent election as Chair of the Arab Innovation Network.
On regional and international fronts, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh reaffirmed that Gaza’s steadfastness represents a true victory, stressing that the occupation’s failure to achieve its objectives is in itself a victory. He underlined that the ongoing war on Gaza is not merely a response to the “Al-Aqsa Flood” operation (October 7 attack), but rather a continuation of a struggle against the occupation since 1948.
He pointed out that the war has resulted in significant human and economic losses to the Zionist entity, while Palestinians have succeeded in exposing the true nature of the occupation to global public opinion.
Regarding the so-called vision of “Greater Israel” announced by the Prime Minister of the Zionist occupation, Benjamin Netanyahu, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh dismissed any legitimacy of the occupation in Syria, Lebanon, or Gaza. He emphasized that no recognition of any occupation should be given under any circumstances. He further called on the Arab media and journalists to use precise terminology rather than adopting Zionist and Western media distorted narratives.
He continued by expressing his profound belief that the end of Israel is coming, pointing out that the Zionist entity was established in the aftermath of the Holocaust; which Palestinians in Gaza are enduring today that is described as a ‘genocide’.
Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh also stated that the Palestinian Cause will be directly affected by the ongoing US-China conflict; which he predicts may escalate into a military confrontation over Taiwan within two years. Taiwan, he stated, is the world’s leading producer of semiconductors and processor components that are essential for the world’s modern technologies.
Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh further pointed out that the end of such a conflict will take place at the negotiation table, where a new World Order will be established leading to shared global governance. He also noted that this will mark the end of the current “unipolar system” that has allowed the Zionist entity to carry out numerous crimes and atrocities.
He affirmed that the fall of US unipolar dominance will naturally diminish Zionist’s influence in the Middle East. He also anticipated a gradual decline in the US dollar's position as the world's primary reserve currency, with a growing shift toward sovereign digital currencies. In contrast, he criticized private unbacked cryptocurrencies, describing them as tools of surveillance over customers rather than true financial alternatives.
Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh warned of a looming global recession similar to the 1930s Great Depression, attributing this to US protectionist economic policies. He compared current measures taken by Donald Trump to those of former US President Herbert Hoover, emphasizing that tariffs and trade restrictions are likely to lead to inflation, unemployment, and rising prices.
On the Alaska Summit (The 2025 Russia–United States Summit) between the United States President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh downplayed its significance, describing it as unproductive leading to no tangible results.
Concerning his experience while serving at the United Nations, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh pointed to his recently published book entitled “From the United Nations to the United People”, in which he calls for fundamental overhaul to the UN, starting with the abolition of the “Veto” power held by the five permanent members of the Security Council.
Concluding his remarks, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh shared a key life lesson: “Resilience is the path of victory.” Addressing the Arab youth, he said, “Every challenge you face is an opportunity to learn and succeed. Never give up, the future belongs to innovators.”
