The Quad Beyond U.S. Leadership

The Quad Beyond U.S. Leadership

Over the past decade, Washington led a coalition of Indo-Pacific democracies in checking a rising China, then stepped back. The Quadrilateral Security Dialogue, known as the Quad, links Australia, India, Japan, and the U.S. Now the group is testing whether it can preserve a great-power balance without American leadership.

Taiwan Troubles and Strategic Stability

The world just witnessed another high-intensity, live-fire Chinese military exercise around Taiwan. The dispute over the island represents one of the most serious risks of another great-power war.

India-Russia Relations: Tactical Rebound

An unanticipated consequence of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has been the strengthening of ties between Moscow and New Delhi, particularly in the energy domain. The India–Russia axis has been one of the world’s most enduring great-power partnerships.

The US South Caucasus Gambit

The US South Caucasus Gambit

The Trump administration has unveiled an ambitious plan to bring peace, prosperity, and renewed US influence to the South Caucasus. Russia’s declining sway in the region, combined with the absence of strong regional structures, has created a strategic vacuum that external powers are eager to fill.

Trump Charges Into Central Asia's Great Power Game

Trump Charges Into Central Asia’s Great Power Game

For the first time in years, Central Asia briefly dominated Washington’s foreign-policy conversations. On November 6, Central Asian leaders met with Donald Trump at the C5 1 Presidential Summit.
