AXIOS: The BRICs crash and join the anti-establishment wave
Jair Bolsonaro secured 55% of votes and defeated leftist rival Fernando Haddad to become the President of Brazil.
This piece, placing the Bolsonaro victory in context, highlights how predicting the future is a fool’s errand. The global landscape today is hardly what we would have anticipated nearly two decades ago. BRICs countries (Brazil, Russia India and China) are not the new global…

Japanese Prime Minister suspicious that South Korean President is spinning the North Korean peace talks for domestic political reasons. Is he right?
Japanese Prime Minister suspicious that South Korean President is spinning the North Korean peace talks for domestic political reasons. Is he right?
When historic moments are unfolding at a fast pace, it is easy to get caught up in the lofty rhetoric and grand gestures.

All four of South Korea’s living former presidents are either being tried or punished for corruption.
All four of South Korea’s living former presidents are either being tried or punished for corruption.
Just wow.
Is proclivity for corruption a characteristically Korean trait? That would be far too reductive and such claims often whiff of racism.
This startling fact above living former Presidents is the best advocate for changing the Korean Constitution and allow two four year terms (like the US) rather than one single five year stint.
The single-term limit was intended to stymie an aspiring…

Most disarming thing I've read today: White House May Share Nuclear Power Technology With Saudi Arabia
Most disarming thing I’ve read today: White House May Share Nuclear Power Technology With Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia needs approval from the U.S. in order to receive sensitive American technology. Past negotiations broke down because the Saudi government wouldn’t commit to certain safeguards against eventually using the technology for weapons.
Because what the Middle East needs is the potential for a nuclear capable Saudi Arabia.
And of course Mike Pence is involved in some capacity.

Russia’s alternative vision for Asia: accommodating a nuclear North Korea?
Russia and North Korea share a short border but a long history.
When the United States and the Soviet Union drew the seemingly innocuous line dividing the Korean peninsula in 1953, it was regarded as a temporary administrative division for processing Japanese forces after World War II.
However, since then, Russia (and its Soviet Union predecessor) have been ensnared in the fate of the hermit…

6 July, South Korean President Moon Jae-in called on Pyongyang to return to the dialogue table, noting it may be facing the last and best chance to do so.
