Russia’s alliance with other authoritarian regimes has grown to the extent that it is now attempting to challenge the current world order. This is seen most clearly in the battlefields of Ukraine, where technological cooperation has produced new weapons like the Oreshnik missile.

How Ukraine’s Kursk operation challenges non-western countries to come out

Europe in the age of uncertainty

As long as we have different narratives concerning the real meaning of Russia’s war in Ukraine, the European Union will not be able to act as a coherent and pro-active geopolitical player. The EU should attempt to find a common language to talk about the war and its implications. Only then will we be able to uphold security across the continent, both for ourselves and our partners.

The recent meeting of the UN General Assembly proved to be a focal point for all the uncertainties the world is currently facing: the ineffectiveness of multilateralism; impunity for aggression and violations of international law; and increasing problems related to climate change and sustainable development goals. In short, the international rules-based order as perceived in the West is under threat with major uncertainties as a consequence.

Hard Labour: Britain’s new government looks eastward

The start of July saw Britain elect a Labour government for the first time in well over a decade. While promising change to voters at home, a level of continuity still appears to dominate London’s foreign policy. This is particularly true regarding the region, with a desire to overcome the tensions of Brexit adding nuance to well-established support for Ukraine.
