The Shift in Global Power Dynamics
The speaker discusses how the world has transitioned from a bipolar world dominated by the US and Soviet Union to a unipolar world led by the US, and now to a leaderless world. Three main factors contribute to this shift: Russia's decline and anger, China's increasing power and divergence from American values, and the resentment of citizens in wealthy democracies due to globalization. These factors are causing geopolitical tensions and conflicts.
