Ian Bremmer On Multi-Polar Geopolitics, Ukraine, NATO, Europe, Israel & More
Borders are shifting. Wars are spreading. America is pulling back, China is pushing forward, and Russia is gambling everything. Ian Bremmer says the global system that kept the world stable for decades is dead, and what replaces it will be far more dangerous.
This is not a Cold War. This is a free-for-all. We get into:
• Why the U.S. is losing its grip on global leadership
• How China and Russia are quietly teaming up to challenge the West
• Why Europe is more fragile than anyone wants to admit
• How NATO missteps pushed Putin toward full-scale invasion
• Why nuclear risks are higher today than in the 1980s
• And what happens when every major power is acting alone with no rules and no referee Bremmer says the world has entered a G-Zero era. No leadership. No guardrails. No safety net. Just rising tension and a global landscape one mistake away from disaster.
Booking Ian Bremmer brings unmatched value to any event by offering clear, compelling insights into the geopolitical forces shaping business, policy, and society. As a world-renowned political scientist, bestselling author, and media commentator, he translates complex global trends into actionable takeaways for leaders and audiences alike. His engaging, independent perspective ensures your attendees leave with a deeper understanding of the challenges—and opportunities—emerging on the world stage.
