Analysts believe that the EU should avoid repeating past mistakes regarding Belarus and should return to the level of engagement it had after the signing of the Minsk I and Minsk II agreements. The EU needs to leverage Belarus's role to achieve a viable peace solution for Ukraine, as peace will not materialize on its own without significant effort and activity. The withdrawal of Belarusian forces from the Ukrainian border is seen as a positive signal, indicating readiness to initiate negotiations.

This appears to be true since nations seems to already adapt the Taliban-centric approach with some aiming to expand this engagement, silencing those still advocating for an Afghan-inclusive approach. The West’s approach may appear logical (at best), it could potentially destroy the sheer fabric of Afghan unity plunging the nation into civil war (not today or tomorrow) but in the near forcible future.

To make revolution, revolutionaries are needed: heroes, men with intellect and physical gifts beyond man who know how to give themselves for an idea and see beyond; However, these very capable pure spirits, these idealists, could do nothing without financiers with broad shoulders, magnetic eyes, liberal habits and overflowing wallets. To make revolution it is not enough to invoke it or incite the social network people.

We are facing a series of major geopolitical problems, and I will list those considered the most important: the rise of China and its rivalry with the US; changes in the structure of alliances and partnerships; technological developments and cyber warfare; climate crises; regional tensions and conflicts; global multipolarity; demography and migration; energy and natural resources; economic instability and pandemics; the strengthening of national identities and the rise of populism.

EU enlargement is crucial for the future of SE Europe. I believe its prosperity lies in EU membership and the common European market, as "EU accession will bring an end to all turbulence and challenges in the region." The prospect of membership is the most effective mechanism for ensuring lasting stability. If in 2004 European leaders found the strength and courage to collectively admit 10 countries into EU membership, then 20 years later we see no barriers for the remaining countries of Southeast Europe

The primary question in the coming period is how Iran will transform following the victory of a candidate with qualities and aspirations like Pezeshkian's. Iran is now entering a new era since the establishment of the Islamic Republic in 1979. Iranians have elected a reformist who aims to steer Iran out of its internal economic and social crises and international isolation. The question remains, how?

Milorad Dodik (SNSD), President of the Republika Srpska (RS) entity, has announced that a proposal for "peaceful separation" from the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (FBiH) is in the works, which further exacerbates the situation in BiH and necessitates increased involvement from the international community, primarily the USA and NATO, due to the flagrant violation of the Dayton Peace Agreement and the threat to peace.

Hamas attack on October 7 and subsequent aftermath (on-going war in Gaza) may have benefitted Tehran in achieving significant gains, giving it the opportunity to formulate a strategic policy for regional space, while creating long term challenges.

Are the so-called AI promises obsolete (presence of artificial intelligence) - and therefore fears about it (because they are actually just algorithms and not intelligence, since intelligence must contain at least four components; linear, social, sensory and physical, and not only linear-computational, whatever strength and speed might be)? Should (only) Big Brother be blamed in such an atmosphere? And who exactly is he? Will there ever be a greater 'Brother' than our own stupidity?

The context is ripe for mobilising peace-loving scholars, practitioners and students to engage the public on all dimensions of such unprecedented human tragedy in Gaza and to call upon the decision makers to immediately stop the carnage and not make further miscalculations and mistakes which lead to massacres of innocent people in the Middle East and the world at large.

In this overview it is intended to outline the several critical actions that will take place before the end of the year, not just from the results of many elections taking place in Europe, UK and, most important, the US in October. They could well give a surprise. Whatever, the rest of the decade is likely to show some differences.

Analysts believe that the upcoming European elections are decisive for the future of the EU. Without comprehensive reform, the EU cannot survive long-term and overcome its internal crisis. The current approach to leading the EU is outdated. The question of migrants and asylum policy must not sow discord within the EU but rather serve as a catalyst for unity in finding suitable solutions. A unified external and defence policy is indispensable for the EU's ongoing evolution.
