Brilliant discussion on Global power competition at The Rondeli Foundation Rondeli Security Conference Thank you Teri Schultz

Peace operations can provide a security guarantee to 🇺🇦 - but only if there's a ceasefire. In the latter's absence, supporting 🇺🇦's ability to defend itself remains the key objective to beef up the intl. security guarantees provided so far. My take at the Rondeli Security Conference 2025.

Rondeli Security Conference Day 2 opens with insightful discussions on the global great power competition, threats to the liberal order, Trump’s foreign policy and assertive policies from other geopolitical powers - China, Russia and North Korea. #RSC2025 #RondeliSC

‘Russia is more like a hurricane, it will be turbulent for a short period of time and subside eventually; China is a climate change - its effects will persist and create problems continuously, making it a bigger challenge for the future’- 秋田浩之(日本経済新聞）Hiroyuki Akita (Nikkei, Commentator) of Nikkei, Japan #RSC
