That should interest you because Culver was a career CIA analyst (like Morell, retired) who ended up as the intelligence community's top officer for East Asia. Culver is extremely well regarded at the CIA. He was seen as a leader committed to his people and to speaking truth to power, especially on matters concerning China. That makes him worth listening to.

Belarus is among the most likely places where a war could break out between Russia and the West. News from Belarus has flashed in and out of headlines in the past year. When a wave of protest washed over the country in the summer of 2020, it was a major story. The diversion of an airplane traveling between two E.U. member states, followed by the kidnapping of a Belarusian opposition journalist and his (Russian) girlfriend from this...

For just about anyone who spends time thinking about the future of the world, the fast-unfolding competition between the United States and China looms as one of the most important issues shaping both expectations and uncertainty over the near and medium term.

The Cuban people are rising up in protest against a brutal, authoritarian regime. This month's protests mark the most significant rejection yet of the communist dictatorship's rule on the island. It's a historic moment and, more importantly, the right time for America to rally the world in support of Cubans rightfully demanding their God-given liberties and the end of a dictatorship.

Contemporary Russia has been adding new citizens who, by virtue of their status and territorial location, represent a particular group of Russian ‘subjects' on the territories of unrecognised countries, i.e. Abkhazia, South Ossetia, Transnistria, the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) and Lugansk People's Republic (LPR). This direction of Russian migration policy remains a ‘stumbling block' in relations with other countries and may become a challenge for Russia in the future.

he United States faces a new cold war, this time with China, that will determine the future of our nation and of the world. This cold war will turn much more on economic competition than did the first, with Soviet Russia. While we must maintain our military advantage over the People's Liberation Army, we also must recognize that much of China's power results from its trade and economic influence around the world.

In the aftermath of the 2011 Arab Spring uprisings, great power competition has returned to the Middle East. Russia in particular has sought to exploit U.S. policy blunders and retrenchment (real or perceived) in order to push for greater regional multipolarity. While it is easy to understand why regional states outside of the "U.S. camp," such as Iran or Syria, would turn to Moscow as a way to hedge...
