Putin's path to self-destruction
With each day's passing, it becomes increasingly obvious that Russia can never win its war with Ukraine. Vladimir Putin has caused the death or injury of over 100,000 young Russians and has spent nearly $70 billion in the execution of this unjust war. The notion that Russia held tight control over global energy and grain markets has also proved to be a fiction. Much of the wo...

Iran rocked by protests; world watches politely
Massive and spreading protests have rocked Iran in the wake of widening social discontent following the death of a young woman while in police custody. Her crime? Not wearing the obligatory headscarf properly. Demonstrations across the country have jolted the Islamic Republic to its core as thousands of women publicly and provocatively remove and then burn their headscarves, ...

Nuclear brinkmanship
North Korea's recent declaration that it would remain a nuclear state and that its decision was “irreversible” underscores the complete failure of U.S. policy toward Pyongyang over the last two decades.

Dating in metaverse offers vast array of possibilities
Imagine a first date with someone who lives thousands of miles away that starts with a few drinks in a club set in a past decade, and ends with a dinner on the moon overlooking the Earth. These types of scenarios are all possible today thanks to the advancement of the metaverse.

Everything everywhere all at once
It seems as if everything is going to hell all at once. You have the Russia-Ukraine war, with the always constant threat of a catastrophic nuclear exchange just below the horizon. You have Iranian women and young people violently pushing back against the suffocating rule of a fundamentalist theocracy. You have the Chinese being locked up in their own houses for months at a ti...

For Russia, China is neither a 'big bad wolf' nor a 'fairy godmother'
This month, while the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Summit was being held, the Global Times, an English-language Chinese newspaper, published an op-ed describing Russia-China relations. The op-ed dismissed predictions of Russia being devoured by the “big bad wolf” and hopes of the country being rescued by the “fairy godmother” as both fairy tale fantasies.

Learning English the Nordic way
Busan Mayor Park Heong-joon's ambition to turn his city into a center of English-speaking Koreans is a laudable one, but it will also be difficult to achieve, at least in the short term. No one doubts that English is the lingua franca of the global economy and its widespread use will help attract foreign investment to Busan and elsewhere in Korea.

When designing foreign policy, think bigger than just diasporas
Today, the world is a huge hodgepodge of people of different sorts, constantly moving from one corner to another. Among these nomads are groups of people who eventually settle and form a community, which we often call a diaspora. Most of the time, the main characteristic that distinguishes this group from any others is ethnicity. Some diasporas go back in history for millenni...

Standing on the shoulders
My retired colleague, Dr. Hannah Jones, one of the first United Nations representatives from Liberia, taught me the phrase, “standing on their shoulders.” Each of us forms a link in life's caravan. Life depends on elders, on those who come before us. We have juniors standing on our shoulders, to the end of time. If time moves forward, it also repeats the past.
