Glenn Diesen: Europe’s Decline, Russia’s Rise & the New Multipolar World Order


Is Europe losing its geopolitical influence as the world shifts toward a new multipolar order? In this discussion on Mario Nawfal’s program, geopolitical analyst Professor Glenn Diesen and Brandon Weichert examine the future of Europe, US foreign policy, Russia’s strategic realignment, and the ongoing war in Ukraine.

The conversation explores Donald Trump’s unconventional negotiation tactics and his complicated relationship with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, alongside questions surrounding reported contacts between US officials and Russia.

Glenn Diesen argues that Europe’s growing reliance on military spending, often described as military Keynesianism, exposes deeper weaknesses in the European Union’s neoliberal economic model. Meanwhile, Russia is increasingly strengthening its economic and strategic ties with Asia through partnerships involving BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO).

Key topics covered:

  • Europe’s Decline: Is the European Union losing its economic and geopolitical relevance?

  • US Foreign Policy: Can Donald Trump reshape relations with Russia and Ukraine?

  • The Ukraine War: Negotiations, diplomacy, and the future of European security.

  • Russia’s Pivot to Asia: How BRICS and the SCO are influencing the global balance of power.

  • Military Keynesianism: The economic consequences of rising European defence spending.

  • The Multipolar World Order: Why the United States may need to adapt to a world where power is distributed among multiple centres.

As global power dynamics evolve, can Western leaders adapt to a multipolar world and pursue a more stable international order?

Watch this geopolitical analysis of Europe’s future, Russia’s growing partnerships, American diplomacy, and the changing balance of global power.
