This page presents an insightful conversation hosted by DW’s Melissa Chan with geopolitical expert Ken Moriyasu, focusing on the pressing need for governments to update their foreign policy frameworks. Moriyasu highlights the growing influence of China’s Belt and Road Initiative and the shift among major powers toward establishing spheres of influence, emphasizing that traditional diplomatic approaches are no longer sufficient in today’s geopolitical landscape.
To address these evolving challenges, Moriyasu suggests the establishment of three specialized strategic bureaus aimed at managing the complexities of modern international relations. The discussion delves into how the emergence of authoritarian leaders and changing power structures necessitate a comprehensive revision of global diplomatic strategies to better navigate the current world order.
