China's activist shortage
China's activist shortage
Protesters have taken to the streets of China's cities in a rare show of political dissent. While the demonstrations are focused largely on the authorities' zero-COVID policy, they have sparked speculation that a pro-democracy movement - and even a Taiwan-style political transition - could come next. But this is unlikely, not least because decades of strict family-planning po...

Biden's new management style
For the last few months, U.S. President Joe Biden, considered to be a rather unglamorous politician with limited oratory capabilities, has been using an interesting strategy to compensate for this lacuna in his personality. On the domestic front, particularly during the campaign for midterm polls, he adopted a two-pronged strategy - hot and cold.

North Korea looks for attention with missile diplomacy
North Korea's petulant and isolated regime wants attention. It's thirty-something dictator, Kim Jong-un, vies for the noxious notoriety that much of the world has focused on Vladimir Putin's war in Ukraine or Xi Jinping's military threats to Taiwan. Poor little Kim had his fire and fury moment back in 2017 until he was put back in his box by the Trump administration.

Why Europe and Latin America need each other
Why Europe and Latin America need each other
In the more dangerous and unpredictable multipolar world in which we now live, trade relations remain of seminal importance. But they cannot be separated from geopolitics. Many Europeans long believed that they could be, but Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine has highlighted the risks raised by the European Union's dependence on Russian gas and shown us that this appr...

Golden jubilee for closer Korea-India ties
Next year marks the golden jubilee of Korea-India diplomatic ties. The golden jubilee could be translated into an opportune moment for bilateral relations to be upgraded to the next level with a set of concrete cooperation projects that are more ambitious and action-oriented in regard to cooperation. Korea and India, two thriving democracies in the Indo-Pacific region, are na...

Truck drivers and Texas sharpshooters
Nationwide, thousands of cargo truckers have been on a strike since late November in a dispute over the price of freight. The government has labelled the strike illegal and claimed that the truckers, who are already earning a high income, are holding the entire economy hostage to enrich themselves further.

Birth of new international order
Birth of new international order
We are witnessing an unprecedented confluence of major and minor crises. From the COVID-19 pandemic, surging energy prices, and the return of inflation in developed and developing economies, to fractured supply chains, Russia's criminal war in Ukraine, and climate change, many of these crises are signs not just of decay but of a new world order being born.

North Korean riddle: what next after nuclear test?
North Korea is ramping up pressure through a series of missile tests and harsh verbal attacks against South Korea's top government officials. The intensity of North Korean provocations is well illustrated by a record number of missiles launched on one day - over twenty - as well as the unprecedented frequency of missile tests averaging more than once a week for the last three...

Chinese President Xi Jinping made himself available to the western leaders at this year's G20 Summit in Bali, Indonesia (Nov. 15-16). It was his second time traveling abroad since January 2020 when he visited Myanmar. His first one was the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit in September in Uzbekistan. He then had summits with Russia and other Central Asian state leaders.
