Global Security
We focus on the military and diplomatic measures taken by nations and international organisations, such as NATO and the United Nations, to ensure mutual safety and security.
Our analysis from a global security perspective looks at the emerging threats to the global security environment, sources of potential conflict and the political, military and economic trends around the world.
