Nuclear deterrence after Ukraine
Nuclear deterrence after Ukraine
Russia's invasion of Ukraine has revived many questions about nuclear deterrence. Whatever the outcome of what could be a long war, the issues it has raised will not go away.In 1994, Ukraine surrendered the nuclear weapons it had inherited from the Soviet Union in return for security guarantees from the United States, the United Kingdom, and Russia.

Wars and rumors of wars
Wars and rumors of wars
History's tyrants have at least one thing in common - their willingness to destroy and slaughter anything and anyone who stands in the way of conquest. This is not new. From Genghis Khan to Adolph Hitler to Vladimir Putin, civilization's greatest monsters have always been able to justify unspeakable atrocities in the name of imperial expansion.

Three comments on Ukraine and nuclear risks
Three comments on Ukraine and nuclear risks
Three overarching goals have informed the Asia Pacific Leadership Network's (APLN) approach to nuclear threats since its inception a decade ago: the imperative to hold firm against proliferation, the matching importance of credible steps toward disarmament, and defusing geopolitical tensions that heighten nuclear risks. All three are at play in Ukraine.

Navigating jungle of sellers
Navigating jungle of sellers
I'm part of two large seller communities, but no one ever talks about or asks others what they sell - ever. It's an unspoken rule.

Protecting democratic dividend
Protecting democratic dividend
During my years as a policymaker in India and at the World Bank, one of the few leaders I met whom I came truly to respect was Madeleine Albright. The former U.S. secretary of state was a master strategist, but behind the strategizing lay empathy and a moral compass. That is why we should take seriously her recent essay on the need for urgent global action to fight authoritar...

Putin and Xi's imperium of grievance
Putin and Xi's imperium of grievance
Soon after the news of Russia's invasion of Ukraine flashed across my computer screen, I received an email that seemed to mark another milestone in the dismantling of the old global order. Having tickets to attend a Vienna Philharmonic concert at New York's Carnegie Hall, I received a “Customer Service Announcement” reporting that the Valery Gergiev - described as “a friend a...

What next president should prioritize
What next president should prioritize
South Korea's next president, who will be selected in the upcoming March 9 election, will face enormous diplomatic and security challenges. He (both leading candidates are male) must accurately assess the true geopolitical reality that South Korea faces, so that he can move the country in the right direction.

Putin's folly
Putin's folly
Watching the Russian invasion of Ukraine a few things became quite evident. For one, the rot in Putin's Russia has been unmistakably exposed. Everything which has unfolded so far has been botched and frankly I don't see a way for him to recover. I suspect his days as czar are numbered as the people realize the emperor has no clothes. Let's dive in.

Case for punitive tax on Russian oil
Case for punitive tax on Russian oil
As I write, Russia's army has entered Ukraine's capital, Kyiv. It is clear now that the threat of sanctions did not dissuade Russian President Vladimir Putin from launching his invasion. But making good on the threat can still play two other roles: Sanctions can limit Russia's capacity to project power by weakening its economy, and they can create a precedent that might influ...
