Part 12/15:
Stubb responds to the notion that the Ukraine war is a European problem, arguing instead that it has worldwide implications. Higher food prices, energy shortages, inflation, and economic downturns attest to the interconnectedness of global stability. He points out that over half of the world’s population resides in countries that abstain from vocal opposition to Russia at the UN, highlighting a significant global divide.
He calls for Western nations to pursue a more “dignified” and unified foreign policy that recognizes these shifts, emphasizing that the West must adapt to accommodate new power dynamics rather than clinging to outdated norms and institutions.
