G-20 Summit 2025 and Global Challenges

Johannesburg made plain that the agenda of global governance is shifting: development, equity and climate resilience have moved higher up the global list of priorities, driven by the moral and economic urgency felt in the Global South. The summit also revealed a fragile architecture — the G-20 can still produce consensus statements, but the absence of a top leader from a superpower (the U.S.) and other partial delegations changes how that consensus will be implemented and perceived.

BRUSSEL, Kazakhstan – EU: Ten Years of a Strategic Partnership Ready to Shift Into Higher Gear

The debate organized at the Press Club Brussels revealed a Kazakhstan fully assured in its multi-vector foreign policy: engaging with Russia, China, the European Union and the United States without entering into bloc logic, but defending a strategic pragmatism that has become its trademark. Ambassador Roman Vassilenko called for a faster, more concrete and more ambitious EU–Kazakhstan partnership, emphasising two priorities: connectivity — with the central role of the Middle Corridor — and cooperation on critical raw materials essential for Europe’s industrial transition. Journalists present, including Colin Stevens (EU Reporter), raised key questions about energy, green hydrogen, civil nuclear development and Kazakhstan’s wider role in Europe’s green transition. Their direct, sometimes sharp questions shed light on Astana’s strategic objectives.

Mandatory Military Service for Women Introduced in Scandinavian Countries

Norway, Sweden, and Denmark have introduced mandatory military service for women in response to the potential spread of the Russia-Ukraine war. Denmark will draft women aged 18 through a lottery system, while Norway and Sweden have expanded their existing conscription frameworks to include women. The Baltic states are considering similar measures. Experts view this as a major shift in European security policy, likely to strengthen NATO’s deterrence posture on its eastern flank.
