Global Leadership Vacuum (G0 Wins)

The primary risk identified for 2025 is a global leadership vacuum termed the G0 wins, which reflects a lack of effective global governance. The United States, the most powerful country, has shifted away from fostering collective security and promoting values such as democracy and free trade, instead taking a more transactional approach. This has resulted in weakened global cooperation, leaving nations vulnerable and more focused on self-preservation rather than proactive leadership. The implications of this vacuum manifest in various global issues, including regional conflicts and geopolitical instability, as countries struggle to navigate and respond effectively to emerging challenges.
