Can International Law be Strengthened? | Thoughts on Pope Leo? | May 2025 Q&A I

Описание: In this Q&A episode, I tackle a fascinating mix of questions from viewers around the world, exploring some of the most pressing and provocative topics in international relations today. I start by examining the stability of the India-Pakistan ceasefire and whether it can hold in the long run. I then take an unexpected historical detour to consider the legacy of Pope Leo XIV. The conversation turns to international law and the challenges of enforcing it more effectively on a global scale. What would a Trump presidency mean for the BRICS bloc? Are we witnessing the modern-day equivalent of Rome’s collapse? I also explore the prospects of Saudi-Israeli normalisation and conclude with thoughts on U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s performance on the world stage.

Whether you’re a student of global politics or simply curious about current affairs, this wide-ranging discussion offers plenty to consider.
