This conflict is becoming more dangerous day by day, and the chances of its conclusion seem very low. It has raised a high level of uncertainty in the global market.
In his first overseas appearance at NATO meeting in Brussels, US Secretary of Defence Pete Hegseth calls on European countries to spend five percent of GDP a year on defence.
NATO is faced with the war in Ukraine, the rise of China, and the political challenges experienced by several of its members at home, such as the consequential elections in France.
If Russia wins, every aggressive power around the world would be tempted to follow in its footsteps. If aggression ultimately pays, why wouldn’t all those with territorial claims against their neighbours act on them?
The Ukrainian side has made its efforts and intentions clear from the outset and is paying a huge price for it too, but NATO’s stance is far from lucid.
American objectives are unmet. They neither have muscle nor motivation to resume the war. As for Iran, the regime didn’t just survive, it’s now led by more radical individuals.
