The Long Term Geopolitical Trends That Will Shape the Next Global Crisis

What happens when two proxy wars collide with a global power struggle between the United States, China, and Russia? In this episode of the Brussels Signal Horizon Podcast, geopolitical strategist Velina Tchakarova joins Ralph Schoellhammer for a wide-ranging discussion on the long-term trends shaping the international system and why the world may be approaching a new global crisis. We explore: Why the wars in Ukraine and Iran have become defining geopolitical fault lines The concept of a "global system rupture" and what it could mean for economies worldwide The evolving relationship between the United States, China, and Russia Whether a new world order is emerging behind the scenes The prospects for a ceasefire in Ukraine and the future of European security NATO, defense spending, and Europe's strategic awakening Why Russia's long-term objectives remain unchanged The growing role of technological warfare and military innovation Europe's economic challenges and the consequences of decades of political complacency The "democratization of irresponsibility" and the leadership crisis facing Western democracies Velina argues that the next major crisis will not be driven by a single event, but by the convergence of geopolitical, economic, technological, and security trends that have been building for years.
