“The international system is undergoing a profound transformation.”

🌐 As power becomes more diffuse & global dynamics more unpredictable, states are seeking new ways to advance their interests & strengthen their resilience. The challenge ahead lies in balancing independence of action with the benefits & demands of strategic alignment.
