The Red (Team) Analysis Weekly No124, 31 October 2013

A new world order in the making: America, Britain and Russia – The world is changing and the decisions taken by the various actors are not only reactions to those changes and their anticipated direction and impact, but also contributions towards the very evolution of the system. We thus see the U.S. revising – rather towards a wished lessened involvement – its Middle-East policy, while the region is in turmoil and being redesigned. Meanwhile, it seeks to step up its Asia-Pacific involvement (its strategic pivot to Asia), yet promoting a military strengthening of its partners, when the region already knows a rising level of tension. Could it be that those new American regional roles, notably when seen together, have the potential to both favour instability, even wars (what was tried to be avoided), while accelerating an American loss of influence?
