World wars and domestic dysfunction
The full-scale invasion of Ukraine by Russia has directly challenged arrangements that have helped to secure peace for over 70 years. The world will be safer if Russia is soundly defeated on the battlefield than it will be in the event of an ambiguous outcome.

Expanded BRICS and Korea's role for Global South
At the BRICS summit in Johannesburg from Aug. 22-24, more than 20 countries formally applied to join the group.

Sino-US rivalry intensifies in Global South, Korea
The Chinese government's criticism of South Korea reached its peak on June 8 when Chinese Ambassador Xing Haiming said that “those who bet on China's loss will surely regret their decision in the future.” This statement that was made during a meeting with Lee Jae-myung, the leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, sparked a diplomatic firestorm and public outrage.

State visit to bolster Yoon's domestic standing
Russia's invasion of Ukraine and growing U.S.-China strategic rivalry will have a profound effect on the future global system. The world seems to be heading toward a two-bloc system. However, it will not be like the bipolarity that existed during the Cold War, when the great power rivalry extended and affected the whole world. Today much of the Global South is refusing to take sides.

Denuclearization - Quo Vadis?
