Matthew Blackburn

Academics Geoff Roberts, Glenn Diesen, and Matthew Blackburn discuss the global crisis, new cold war risks, and the shift away from the US-centric world order. They analyze strategic empathy in geopolitics, the role of the global south, and the need for strategic diplomacy over confrontation. The conversation delves into changing power dynamics under the Trump administration, tensions in Ukraine, and the risks of misinterpretations in dealing with conflicts.
