The International Criminal Court bash fest is getting ever more frenetic in Washington and among the law shredding members of the Netanyahu cabinet in Israel. Last month, the Trump administration smacked sanctions on judicial members Kimberly Prost of Canada and Nicolas Guillou of France via Executive Order 14203. Prosecutors also […]
Trump’s escalatory signals in Ukraine, the Indo-US split that he induced, and the attendant alleviation of the Sino-Indo security dilemma freed Russia up to clinch the long-negotiated Power of Siberia 2 deal. Trump’s Eurasian grand strategy has sought to preemptively avert Russia’s potentially disproportionate dependence on China in order to […]
In recent years, the European Union, once positioning itself as an independent player on the global stage, has increasingly lost its foreign policy autonomy, blindly following in the wake of United States policy. This process, which began long before the current geopolitical crises, has reached its peak amid the Ukrainian […]
The recent Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit in China has become one of the most significant political events of the year. For the West, which is trying to preserve its dominance in the global system, the summit sent a clear signal: the countries of the Global South are ready to […]
President Donald Trump, who had rebuffed Benjamin Netanyahu when he came to ask him to annex Gaza, is now preparing to take control of the Palestinian territory. While Tel Aviv is preparing to annex the entire Mandate of Palestine and, on the contrary, Egypt and Jordan are preparing to hand […]

The recent SCO Leaders’ Summit in Tianjin drew renewed attention to this organization, which began as a means for […]
Over the past eighty years, Europe’s relationship with the United States has been marked by a persistent, often unspoken dependence. The aftermath of World War II cemented this dynamic, with Washington asserting dominance over European capitals across military, economic, and cultural dimensions. Yet, since the escalation of events in Ukraine […]
The recent Sino-Indo rapprochement, which was inadvertently brought about by the US, accounts for why this year’s Chinese host agreed to include this in the Tianjin Declaration unlike how it was conspicuously omitted from late June’s SCO Defense Ministers’ draft statement. The Tianjin Declaration that emerged from this year’s SCO […]
