In a decisive turn toward pragmatic great-power diplomacy, the Trump administration’s 2025 National Security Strategy introduces the “Core-5” (C5) concept—a proposed forum bringing together the United States, China, Russia, India, and Japan to shape global stability. The idea reflects a shift toward a modern great-power concert, signalling a move away from ideology-driven alliances toward a post-ideological order anchored in national interests. By Subhash Dhuliya This reorientation unfolds against a changing economic backdrop. While the G7’s share of global GDP (PPP) has declined to roughly 28–30 percent, an expanded BRICS now accounts for more than 40 percent. The imbalance underscores a…

Pakistan has existed in a state of perpetual crisis since its creation in 1947, dominated by military power and defined by opposition to India. Today, under Field Marshal Asim Munir’s unprecedented authority, the country faces its most perilous moment yet. As the United States pushes Islamabad to send troops to Gaza under President Donald Trump’s plan, Munir is caught between appeasing Washington and preserving Pakistan’s domestic legitimacy and standing in the Muslim world. The outcome may reshape Pakistan’s future—and destabilise the region. Pakistani Islamists burn an effigy of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, during a protest to condemn the killing of…

Russia’s nearly four-year war in Ukraine has delivered record windfalls to the global arms industry while propelling Europe toward unprecedented militarization. As defense contractors like Rheinmetall and Lockheed Martin reap billions from aid packages and replenishment orders, the EU’s ReArm Europe Plan aims to mobilize €800 billion in new spending amid surging budgets and production ramps. Yet, with peace talks gaining momentum in December 2025 causing sharp drops in defense stocks—the conflict’s profiteers face uncertainty, raising questions about whether rearmament is driven by security needs or entrenched industry interests.

A global shortage of memory chips is pushing RAM and storage prices sharply higher, as AI data centers consume unprecedented volumes and manufacturers divert capacity to premium AI-focused components—squeezing supply for everyday devices from smartphones to PCs. AI Data Centers Reshape the Global Memory Market By Newswriters News Desk The world is sliding into a fresh memory chip crunch, but this one looks very different from past semiconductor cycles. Prices of key memory components—used in smartphones, laptops, servers, cars, and cloud infrastructure—are rising rapidly as supply tightens across regions. At the heart of the squeeze is artificial intelligence. New AI-driven…

The global order is undergoing a profound transformation as civilisation-states reassert themselves as the primary actors shaping world affairs. The era of universal models and abstract equality is giving way to a harsher reality in which history, culture, strategic depth, and hard power determine influence. In this new age of rival powers, only states rooted in enduring civilisational identity and backed by real sovereignty can withstand pressure, defend autonomy, and shape outcomes. Multipolarity is not a promise of balance but a contest among civilisations, where strength, resilience, and the ability to enforce red lines define who leads and who follows.…

India’s greatest strategic asset today is its people. With a young, skilled, and globally mobile workforce of over 600 million, India is fast emerging as the world’s talent powerhouse. Backed by sweeping labor reforms, a robust education and skilling ecosystem, and growing international demand, Indian professionals are filling critical skill gaps across technology, manufacturing, healthcare, and infrastructure worldwide. From advanced economies facing demographic decline to emerging industrial hubs, Indian talent is increasingly indispensable—driving productivity, innovation, and global growth while positioning India not just as a manufacturing hub, but as the skill capital of the world. How Demography, Reform, and Global…

Is Washington quietly turning its back on the post–Cold War alliance system it once built and led? Reports of a proposed “Core 5” grouping—bringing together the US, Russia, China, India, and Japan—suggest a strategic rethink underway in American foreign policy. By questioning the relevance of the G7, downgrading Europe’s centrality, and favoring ad-hoc power forums over value-based alliances, the US appears to be signaling fatigue with the institutional architecture of the post-1991 order. If true, this shift marks not just a tactical adjustment but a profound reorientation—from alliance leadership to transactional great-power management—reshaping how global order itself may be negotiated…

Released in the immediate aftermath of President Donald Trump’s National Security Strategy, China’s newly issued white paper on arms control, disarmament, and nonproliferation is less a technical policy update than a strategic rebuttal to Washington’s security doctrine. Framed in the language of restraint, fairness, and stability, the document challenges US-led alliance systems, rejects American demands for trilateral arms-control negotiations, and questions the legitimacy of deterrence models rooted in military blocs. By expanding the arms-control agenda beyond nuclear weapons to include outer space, cyberspace, artificial intelligence, and emerging military technologies, Beijing signals its intent to shape the rules of 21st-century warfare…

By Javaun Moradi “Whether you pursue automations in engineering or storytelling, you will be uncomfortable and face difficult decisions.” My colleague John is a software engineer and was initially skeptical of AI. He now uses end-to-end AI automation to build software. His AI workflow retrieves issues from our ticketing system, creates an execution plan, writes the code, adds or updates automated tests, checks the code for correctness and formatting, and presents the code for his review in a pull request. John reviews the work at each step. Once he approves the pull request, that kicks off more automation, testing, then deploys…

By Joon Lee “Creators are also running into the ceiling that legacy media once hit. When you scale to cultural force levels, you need to become more serious.” For the past decade, YouTube creators have spent their time trying to look less like journalists and more like entertainers. But the next phase of YouTube’s evolution is going to flip that dynamic: journalism is about to become the backbone of the platform’s growth, prestige, and cultural relevance. The 2024 election made this shift impossible to ignore. YouTube — and the broader creator world — got hammered with criticism for the way…
