In the latest episode of Diplomacy and Discourse, host A.R. maps how global power is increasingly organized around regions rather than traditional blocs. The discussion spans Eurasia’s strategic alliances (BRI, EAEU, SCO), Africa’s rising role through the AU, ECOWAS and critical minerals, and South America’s balancing act between China, the U.S., and the EU. The podcast shows how infrastructure, media, and networks not just ideology are becoming the real levers of influence in 2025. This matters because Germany’s economy and diplomacy are deeply tied into these emerging networks, from critical minerals in Africa to supply chains in Latin America. The discussion highlights a broader point: for Germany and its partners, grasping these regional shifts is key to shaping strategy in an increasingly multipolar order.
