How China Will Die | Peter Zeihan on Chinese Demographics
"The demographic system has tipped already, and so we're never going back to the consumption and production balance that we had in 2019 that got muddled by COVID. We were all worried about other things for two years and in that time we shifted. The Chinese are arguably the biggest beneficiary of the globalized system and it hasn't really sunk in just how terminal this is going to be for them in every way that you measure it: demographically, economically, culturally, nationally.

Russia’s war in Ukraine jolts Iran, Syria and Middle East security
According to Asharq Al-Awsat, the Arabic newspaper headquartered in London, “With Russia preoccupied with its war in Ukraine, Tehran is carrying out the process of filling the vacuum left by Moscow in Syria.” Just as Russia filled the vacuum that the U.S. left in the Middle East, Iran is filling the void that Russia is leaving by withdrawing from Syria. And this could portend a fundamental deterioration of regional stability.

Ukraine Is Becoming a Dangerous Proxy War Between Russia and the West
Ukraine Is Becoming a Dangerous Proxy War Between Russia and the West
Russia could be trapped in a full-fledged proxy war with a vastly wealthier, more productive opponent supplying a tough, local client. Putin’s revisionism is, ideally, not just limited to Ukraine. He wants a different European security order – one with a much larger, semi-imperial role for Russia. Alas, no one besides Moscow wants that, so the West has swung dramatically behind Ukraine. The war is indeed a proxy war.
