Food is one of the great bedrocks of human existence. Given its primacy to survival, it has also increasingly become a locus for conflict, either due to famine or as an exploitable vulnerability of even the most powerful countries. Russia's war on Ukraine made it clear that grain could be fought over in the battle for supremacy, with the whole world dependent on the outcome.Today, we have a special episode of the podcast. Our Riskgaming designer Ian Curtiss hosts Alicia Ellis, an Air Force veteran who is now the director of the Master of Arts in Global Security program at Arizona State University. She and her husband own a regenerative farm in Phoenix's East Valley, and she has specialized in the future of American agricultural security in her own research. She's also designing a game of her own, called New War, to highlight the complex interplay of challenges that come with new forms of warfare and particularly so-called “gray zone” tactics.Ian and Alicia talk about what it's like to farm in the twenty-first century, Russia and Ukraine's grain production, Covid-19 and beef prices, and the complete abdication of government investment in the future security of the food supply.

My guest today, Zia Mian is co-director of Princeton University's Program on Science and Global Security. He's a physicist who has long studied nuclear weapons and nuclear security. In our conversation Zia Mian explains how scientists have impacted policy discussions about nuclear weapons since the dawn of the nuclear age, and how as the nuclear security landscape is evolving--and as science is advancing, scientists can continue to contribute to our understanding of the effects of a nuclear war.  In addition to his perch at Princeton, Zia Mian serves as Co-Chair of the Scientific Advisory Group of the United Nations Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. This is the first first international scientific body created by a United Nations treaty process for the purpose of advancing nuclear disarmament and in our conversation he explains how the work of scientists can contribute to a nuclear free world.  We kick off, however, discussing the recent conflict between India and Pakistan and what this conflict says about the role of nuclear weapons in international security today.  We recorded this conversation in conjunction with the Carnegie International Nuclear Policy Conference.

In this episode, we explore a redefined global security context with Róbert Ondrejcsák, Executive Director of the European Leadership Network, former Slovak Ambassador to the UK and former Deputy Defence Minister of Slovakia. We break down Xi Jinping's call for Russia and China to become ‘friends of steel' – in opposition to leaders in Kyiv and Washington – and the place of different V4 countries in this context.

Now in its third year, the Russo-Ukraine War has upended the post-Cold War security landscape, exposing deep fractures in the global balance of power. As western unity frays and U.S. diplomacy shifts under President Trump, the war has become a flashpoint for competing visions of the international order. This week, the European Union gave Russia an ultimatum: accept a proposed ceasefire or face expanded sanctions—just days ahead of a potential round of direct peace talks in Istanbul on Thursday. The stakes are high, and the choices made this week could reshape not only the trajectory of the war but the future of global security.How should we understand the prospects for a sustainable peace in Ukraine amidst evolving geopolitical dynamics and continued battlefield uncertainty? To help make sense of these developments, Just Security Senior Fellow and Director of the Oxford Programme for Cyber and Tech Policy, Brianna Rosen, sat down with Sir Lawrence Freedman, Emeritus Professor of War Studies at King's College London and Professor Janina Dill, Dame Louise Richardson Chair in Global Security at Oxford University's Blavatnik School of Government. This conversation was part of the Calleva-Airey Neave Global Security Seminar Series at the University of Oxford. Show Notes: Just Security's Russia-Ukraine War Archive Ambassador Daniel Fried's "How to Land the Emerging Peace Deal on Peace for Ukraine"Music: “Broken” by David Bullard from Uppbeat: https://uppbeat.io/t/david-bullard/broken (License code: OSC7K3LCPSGXISVI)

China and the United States should return to a path of dialogue and win-win cooperation and shoulder their shared responsibility as major powers to serve as anchors for global peace and prosperity, Chinese officials and international experts said on Tuesday.中国官员和国际专家周二表示，中美两国应重回对话合作、合作共赢之路，共同承担大国责任，成为世界和平与繁荣的稳定器。Liu Jianchao, head of the International Department of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, said the world is closely watching China-US relations because of their significance to each other and to humanity at large.中共中央对外联络部部长刘建超表示，中美关系对彼此乃至全人类都至关重要，世界各国都密切关注。"It is our consistent view that China and the US must live in peace. Conflict and confrontation are not our options," Liu said at the opening ceremony of the Fourth Wanshou Dialogue on Global Security in Beijing. "We hope that the US side will join us in pursuing dialogue, partnership and win-win cooperation instead of confrontation, alliances and zero-sum games."刘建超在北京举行的第四届万寿国际安全研讨会开幕式上表示：“我们始终认为，中美必须和平相处，冲突对抗不是我们的选择。我们希望美方与我们一道，致力于对话、伙伴关系、合作共赢，而不是对抗、结盟和零和博弈。”The two-day forum, themed "Universal Security in a Turbulent World: The Responsibility of Major Countries", brought together officials, scholars and experts from across the globe to explore how the international community can reduce tensions and conflictsand build a more peaceful and prosperous world.�为期两天的论坛主题为“动荡世界中的普遍安全：大国的责任”，来自世界各地的官员、学者和专家齐聚一堂，共同探讨国际社会如何减少紧张与冲突，建设一个更加和平与繁荣的世界。Liu's remarks followed a high-level China-US economic and trade meeting concluded on Sunday in Geneva, Switzerland, which he said produced some positive outcomes.刘建超是在周日于瑞士日内瓦结束的中美经贸高级别会谈之后发表上述讲话的。他表示，此次会谈取得了一些积极成果。"We hope that the United States will build on this meeting, continue to work with China in the same direction, fully rectify its wrong practice of unilateral tariff hikes, keep strengthening mutually beneficial cooperation, uphold the sound, stable and sustainable development of China-US economic and trade relations, and jointly inject more certainty and stability into the world economy," he said.“我们希望美方在此次会议基础上，继续与中方相向而行，彻底纠正单边加征关税的错误做法，不断加强互利合作，维护中美经贸关系健康、稳定、可持续发展，共同为世界经济注入更多确定性和稳定性。”Liu also reiterated China's commitment to being a constructive force for peace, stability and progress, and said the country will continue to promote open and inclusive economic globalization and pursue common development for all countries.刘建超还重申，中国致力于做和平、稳定、进步的建设性力量，并表示中国将继续推动开放包容的经济全球化，实现各国共同发展。Participants at the forum criticized Washington's use of tariffs, investment barriers and trade restrictions as tools to pressure other countries, and voiced concerns that the world's two largest economies risk drifting further into confrontation.�论坛与会者批评美方利用关税、投资壁垒和贸易限制作为向其他国家施压的工具，并表示担心世界两大经济体可能进一步陷入对抗。 Douglas Bandow, a special assistant to former US president Ronald Reagan and a senior research fellow at the Cato Institute, said the United States and China bear a disproportionate responsibility to act not only in their own interests, but also for the benefit of the wider world.美国前总统罗纳德·里根的特别助理、卡托研究所高级研究员道格拉斯·班多表示，美国和中国肩负着不成比例的责任，不仅要为自身利益采取行动，也要为更广阔的世界利益采取行动。 "Our governments and peoples must find our way to work through present difficulties and disputes into a better, more prosperous and peaceful future," Bandow said. "Disagreements are sure to remain. Nevertheless, our peoples must remain in communion with one another, and our governments must pursue dialogues and policies which preserve communication, allow compromise, promote conciliation and encourage cooperation."“我们的政府和人民必须找到解决当前困难和争端的方法，迈向更美好、更繁荣、更和平的未来，”班多说。“分歧肯定会存在。然而，我们的人民必须保持相互沟通，我们的政府必须推行对话和政策，以保持沟通，允许妥协，促进和解，鼓励合作。”Benny Octaviar, former head of Indonesian Military Research Center and coordinating expert for the Indonesian National Armed Forces Commander, said major countries must reject zero-sum thinking and behave as responsible stakeholders in maintaining the international order.印尼军事研究中心前主任、印尼国家武装部队司令协调专家本尼·奥克塔维亚尔表示，大国必须摒弃零和思维，在维护国际秩序方面扮演负责任的利益攸关方的角色。"Sovereign equality, mutual benefit and peaceful coexistence should be the guiding principles instead of double standards or geopolitical containment," he said.他说：“主权平等、互利共赢、和平共处应该成为指导原则，而不是双重标准或地缘政治遏制。”Andrey Kortunov, former director general of the Russian International Affairs Council, spoke in support of globalization, saying it is not a national strategy but an inevitable stage in human development.俄罗斯国际事务委员会前总干事安德烈·科尔图诺夫支持全球化，称全球化不是国家战略，而是人类发展的必然阶段。"It can be slowed down, but it cannot be completely stopped or reversed," he said.他说：“全球化可以被减缓，但不能完全停止或逆转。”Kortunov said responsible major powers must master multilateralism, as simply multiplying centers of power will not automatically bring global security or stability.科尔图诺夫表示，负责任的大国必须掌握多边主义，因为仅仅增加权力中心并不会自动带来全球安全或稳定。"It is important to learn how to manage relations among nations in such a way that unavoidable competition would not overshadow cooperation, and would not turn into outright confrontation," he said.他说：“重要的是学会如何处理国家间关系，使不可避免的竞争不会掩盖合作，也不会演变成彻底的对抗。”tussle/ˈtʌsl/v./n.争斗；争执multilateralism/ˌmʌltiˈlætərəlɪzəm/n.多边主义rectify/ˈrektɪfaɪ/v.纠正，矫正zero-sum/ˈzɪəroʊ sʌm/adj.零和的

The world needs energy—and lots of it—to raise living standards and unlock economic growth. Clean technologies, which can provide power with minimal contribution to climate change, are taking hold around the world, and the United States, China, and the European Union are vying for global leadership in deploying them at scale. But economic and political changes have introduced uncertainty about the future of clean energy. In the second episode of Talking Policy's Technology and Global Security in the 21st Century miniseries, guest host Nicolas Wittstock speaks with David Hart, a senior fellow in climate and energy at the Council of Foreign Relations, about why clean energy technologies are important not only to combat climate change, but to ensure future economic growth and energy security.This episode was recorded on March 24, 2025. The conversation was edited for length and clarity.

Send us a textIn this powerful episode of the Stories to Create Podcast, Cornell Bunting sits down with Angel Pino—a man whose journey from the inner city of New York to CEO of his own security company is nothing short of extraordinary.Born on October 14, 1990, in New York City, Angel shares how his early life was transformed through the Fresh Air Fund program, forming a deep and lasting connection with a Mennonite family in Mifflinburg, Pennsylvania. Their values of family, respect, and love for nature shaped his outlook and anchored him through some of life's toughest trials.Angel opens up about his military journey, joining the Army National Guard at just 17 to help support his family. From job instability and financial hardship to the repossession of three vehicles in a single year, his story is marked by setbacks that would have broken many. But for Angel, they were catalysts for growth.He candidly discusses the turning points in his life—navigating a wrongful arrest, enduring homelessness, juggling multiple jobs while sleeping in his car, and overcoming rejection due to his past. Each chapter of his story builds on the last, culminating in his rise through the security industry ranks, from $12/hour security officer to Vice President and, finally in 2022, the proud owner and CEO of Global Security.This episode is not just about overcoming adversity—it's about the power of perseverance, purpose, and staying true to one's core values.

This week on The International Risk Podcast, Dominic Bowen sits down with John Bruce, an expert in cybersecurity law and policy, to explore the evolution of state-sponsored cyber activity, and what these developments mean for businesses and governments worldwide.Cyber operations have changed significantly over the last few decades. Once highly targeted and discreet, state-sponsored cyber activities are now more opportunistic, widespread, and increasingly damaging.

On the GZERO World Podcast, we're bringing you two starkly different views on Ukraine's future and European security. First, Ian Bremmer speaks with Latvian Foreign Minister Baiba Braže about the growing security threats facing the Baltics—from cyberattacks and disinformation to undersea sabotage in the Baltic Sea. When an oil tanker linked to Russia's shadow fleet recently severed a vital power cable between Estonia and Finland, it was a stark reminder of how hybrid warfare is playing out beyond the battlefield. Braže warns that Putin's ambitions extend far beyond Ukraine, aiming to weaken US alliances and destabilize Europe. She also pushes back against claims that Ukraine's NATO ambitions provoked the war, calling them “complete nonsense,” and outlines why Latvia is boosting its defense spending to 5% of GDP.The conversation then shifts to Moscow, where Bremmer speaks with former Russian colonel and ex-Carnegie Moscow Center director Dmitri Trenin. Once considered a pro-Western voice, Trenin's views now align closely with the Kremlin. He argues that the fate of Ukraine should be decided primarily by Russia and the United States—not Ukraine or Europe.Host: Ian BremmerGuest: Baiba Braže & Dmitri Trenin Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.

Dr. Vanessa Kerry, founder of Seed Global Health, Associate Professor, Harvard School of Medicine, and since June 2023 the WHO Director-General's Special Envoy on Climate Change and Health, joined The CommonHealth to unpack her recent article ‘Health is a Cornerstone of Global Security,' published February 14 in Foreign Policy. In it, she argues the need to rethink health as the first line of defense, with a heavy emphasis on economics, equity, and migration. We need to broaden the definition of the health security agenda; introduce health metrics into any discussion of economic growth; see health as an investment with high returns—a growing sector of national economies, in job creation, markets, and a larger tax base; and focus on finance e.g. special drawing rights, social bonds, and swaps. At the same time we need to engage internationally through strong moral leadership and humane policies, and upgrade our communications in an apolitical, non-partisan way that people see, understand, and feel. It is imperative to create opportunity in America that starts with protecting people's health and well-being, and to create a new pathway, built on humility, to pull us out of the current confusing moment of crisis surrounding foreign aid. 

Ukraine stands at a pivotal point as its war with Russia enters its third year. With high-stakes talks between the US and Russia taking place in Saudi Arabia, Ukraine finds itself excluded from crucial discussions, which raises alarms in Kyiv and Europe. As Western unity begins to fracture, the debate intensifies over whether to prioritise negotiations or continue military support. With NATO under increasing pressure, shifting US positions and growing concerns from Europe about future defence strategies, can Ukraine harness its resources for US support for peace talks and reconstruction, or will they further complicate its future? What will be the far-reaching implications for global security and economic stability?In this episode of Think Change, our host and Chief Executive Sara Pantualiano was joined by: Nathalie Tocci (Director of the Istituto Affari Internazionali) Ann Linde (ODI Europe Board Member and former Minister for Foreign Affairs, Trade, and Nordic Cooperation)  Olena Borodyna (Senior Geopolitical Risks Advisor, ODI Global)  Related resourcesNavigating humanitarian dilemmas in the Ukraine crisis (Publication, ODI Global) As the war grinds on, political risks in Ukraine are heightening (Insight, ODI Global) The systemic impacts of the war in Ukraine: a triple shock (Insight, ODI Global) A war on many fronts: disinformation around the Russia-Ukraine war (Insight, ODI Global) Think Change episode 3: will the war in Ukraine cause a food crisis?

Three years into the invasion of Ukraine, and amid the Trump administration's rapid shift in US-Russia relations, can European and NATO allies continue to rely on the United States for support? On the GZERO World Podcast, Ian Bremmer is on the ground in Germany on the sidelines of the Munich Security Conference for a hard look at the future of European security with US Senator Elissa Slotkin. World leaders and diplomats gathered at the annual conference to discuss global security challenges, but the biggest story, by far, in Munich was the news of President Trump's 90-minute phone call with Vladimir Putin, which upended three years of US-led efforts to isolate Russia diplomatically. The Trump administration is emphatic: it wants an end to the war and that Europe is responsible for maintaining peace in any ceasefire deal. But can Europe guarantee Ukraine's security without US support? Later in the episode, GZERO's Tony Maciulis speaks with Alina Polyakova, President and CEO of the Center for European Policy Analysis, to discuss the reaction to the Trump-Putin call and growing fears that NATO allies will be left on the sidelines of peace negotiations in Ukraine.Host: Ian BremmerGuest: Elissa Slotkin Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.

I sat down with Glenn Sandifer, who went from being a self-proclaimed "introverted only child" to a corporate leader with some fascinating stops along the way – including a stint at Samsung back when they were the "Dynex of their day" (his words, and if you're too young to get that reference, count yourself lucky). We dove into how growing up ping-ponging between family members and entertaining himself with video games and comics inadvertently prepared him for leadership. Glenn had me chuckling with his story of becoming a tech expert by practically living in libraries, learning the difference between plasma and LCD displays when most of us were just hoping our TVs would turn on. But what really got me was his take on modern masculinity and leadership – turns out there's a world of difference between being a manager who just keeps the ship afloat and a leader who actually steers it somewhere worthwhile. His insights on male friendship and community hit especially hard in our age of LinkedIn connections but real-world disconnection. Between his corporate wisdom and spiritual groundedness, Glenn makes a compelling case for measuring success not by the size of your PowerPoint deck (he's down to two slides now), but by how many people you help climb the ladder with you.About Glenn: Founder Glenn Sandifer has the current privilege of leading the world class Inside Sales and Client Sucess group at the second largest Global Security provider.  His strategic leadership and client-centric approach, lead to consistent conversion of inbound and outbound contacts, envied by the competition.  Glenn provides strategic support within the Global Marketing Team with a heavy focus on North American Markets. Whether it is supporting the Sales Operations components of the business or providing support to the Operations group, Glenn ensures value for the organization stays top of mind.  In 2018, Glenn Founded Glenn Sandifer Consulting with the aim of supporting SME and Local Enterprise Organizations in their efforts around Demand Generation, Lead Qualification, Lead Nurture and Client Success practices. Most clients were in the Home Service Verticals and enjoyed unprecedented growth during this time.  He is currenlty a member of Emblaze (formerly AA-ISP)  Wilson County and Nashville Black Chambers of Commerce. Glenn is also a proud member of the Gamma Phi Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. Glenn is from Indiana, but currently resides in Nashville, Tennessee with his wife and two children. WebsiteLinkedInFaceBookInstagram

What's behind Donald Trump's obsession with Greenland? Most of the island is covered in ice, less than sixty thousand people live there and, until recently, it was best known for snowy photos of polar bears. But climate change has changed the equation and thrust the island into the middle of global politics. Donald Trump has repeatedly said he'd like to buy the territory, and last week at a news conference he said that taking military action to acquire it was not off the table. Sherri Goodman is secretary general of the International Military Council on Climate and Security. She is also a senior fellow at the Wilson Center and author of a new book, “Threat Multiplier: Climate, Military Leadership, and the Fight for Global Security.” 

The start of 2025 brings a cascade of global challenges: the war in Ukraine, Middle East conflicts, tensions around Taiwan, environmental crises, and uncertainty about Donald Trump's return to the presidency. While these dominate headlines, the global threat of terrorism has largely faded from public concern. Al-Qaeda is weakened, ISIS is defeated, and Iran's influence appears diminished, leaving many to believe the era of major terrorist threats is behind us. But what if this complacency is misplaced? Dr. Rohan Gunaratna, a renowned expert on global terrorism, argues that the threat is rising. He shares why urgent, coordinated action is needed to address this growing danger before it's too late. Are we overlooking the risk of a new wave of extremist violence?

In this conversation, Lisa and Elbridge Colby discuss the current state of global affairs, particularly in relation to the foreign policy of President Trump compared to Joe Biden. They explore the challenges facing the U.S. in reasserting its authority on the world stage, the importance of military strength, and the need for a realistic approach to international relations. The discussion also touches on the reactions of other countries to Trump's leadership and the concept of 'America First' as a common-sense approach to foreign policy.
