Interconnected Nature of Global Challenges
Global challenges such as Russian aggression in Ukraine, actions of aggressors like Iran and Russia in the Middle East, and provocations by entities like North Korea are interconnected.

The lack of resolve, such as the surrender to the Taliban in Afghanistan, can embolden adversaries, leading to events like the invasion of Ukraine in 2014 and the re-invasion in 2022. The inability to sustain support for Ukraine due to internal political dynamics may signal weakness to aggressive regimes like Tehran, influencing their decisions to act.
