John Sitilides Speaking Topics
The global economy, long based upon a rules-based trade system, is undergoing profound and fundamentally transformative shifts. Russia’s war against Ukraine is upending Europe’s security architecture, as the EU scrambles to escape its hydrocarbon dependence on Moscow, NATO seeks to prevent alliance fracturing, and Germany and the United Kingdom plan for energy rationing and possible recession. U.S.-China relations are more tense than ever over Taiwan, trade, technology, and human rights, as China seeks to dominate Asia, manage its commercial relations, and challenge U.S. global leadership, while Washington seeks closer ties with India, Japan, and Indo-Pacific powers for regional counterbalance. Beijing is emerging from a zero-COVID policy that unsettled global supply chains and thwarted economic growth. Iran’s potential nuclear weapons breakout is destabilizing the Middle East and its global oil and gas supply network. The global impact of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan is re-shaping counter-terrorism operations and may modify rare earths processing for renewable energy and other advanced technology sectors. Food shortages, energy scarcity, cybersecurity, and climate policy are increasingly shaping international decision-making.

Today, the transformation of the complex political and geostrategic environment of the broader Mediterranean region, whose regular problems were generally manageable, has been stunning.

The Guardian: "Refugee bottleneck in Greece leads to warning of humanitarian crisis"
“In this time of compounded humanitarian and security crises, Greece is being pummelled by its geography,” said John Sitilides, a geopolitical strategist in Washington DC. Trapped in a geopolitical vice and with the country reeling from its longest recession in post-war history, Greece’s social fabric could easily be torn apart. “The opportunity for nativists such as Golden Dawn to further exacerbate social and economic tensions for political gain is alarmingly significant,” Sitilides said, referring to the neo-fascist party that is Greece’s third biggest political force.
