We highlight how the DPRK, alongside Cuba and Vietnam, contributed to Tricontinentalism -a movement distinct from Soviet and Chinese approaches to internationalism. The conversation delves into North Korea\u2019s attraction to Cuba, its navigation of the Sino-Soviet split, and its support for Latin American revolutionary movements. The discussion also examines Guyana\u2019s unique position in the Cold War, from Cheddi Jagan\u2019s ousting with U.S. backing to Forbes Burnham\u2019s later embrace of \u201ccooperative socialism,\u201d influenced by North Korea\u2019s emphasis on discipline and self-reliance. The episode concludes by analyzing why this period of North Korean influence waned, while still maintaining ties with Guyana and African nations into the 1980s.
