Ian Bremmer: A political power vacuum is bad news for the worldplay icon

We clearly live in a G-Zero world. But have the crises of 2022 made it better or worse?

That depends, Eurasia Group President Ian Bremmer says in a Global Stage livestream conversation hosted by GZERO in partnership with Microsoft.

On the one hand, the perception that the US is the global leader it once was leaves a vacuum that rogue states are eager to fill. On the other, the West has stepped up, uniting NATO against Russia over the war in Ukraine.

"When it gets bad enough, the international community shows resilience," Bremmer explains.
