According to Serbian Economist, the International Institute for Middle East and Balkan Studies reports that global instability is intensifying amid the war in Ukraine and strategic uncertainty
The International Institute for Middle East and Balkan Studies (IFIMES, Ljubljana, Slovenia) has published an analysis addressing the growing global disorder and the collapse of former strategic benchmarks against the backdrop of Russia’s ongoing war against Ukraine and general geopolitical turbulence.
The author of the study, IFIMES Advisory Board member and President-Commissioner of Glendale Partners, Dr. J. Scott Yanger, notes that as the war in Ukraine enters its fifth year, the international system is increasingly characterized by instability, rising conflict, and a decline in the predictability of decisions by key global players.
The article emphasizes that the protracted war in Ukraine, the crisis in the Middle East, tensions surrounding Iran, as well as increasing impulsiveness and lack of coordination in global politics are creating a new environment of strategic uncertainty. According to the author, traditional mechanisms of international deterrence and coordination are increasingly failing, and leading states are acting in an increasingly unsystematic manner.
The analysis pays particular attention to the impact of these processes on the global economy and energy security. In particular, potential disruptions in strategic transport corridors—including in the Strait of Hormuz—are cited as key risks, which could put pressure on global markets and heighten nervousness in the global economy.
IFIMES believes that the further course of events will depend on the ability of international actors to prevent the escalation of existing conflicts and to move from reactive measures to a more sustainable system of political and economic crisis management.
As noted in the publication, the current phase of global politics increasingly demands not only rapid diplomatic solutions but also a rethinking of the entire architecture of international security, which in recent years has shown signs of systemic weakening.

India has reaffirmed its support for a comprehensive, just, and sustainable peace in Ukraine in accordance with international law and the UN Charter, including respect for territorial integrity and sovereignty, said the Indian Ambassador to Ukraine during a reception in Kyiv on the occasion of the 77th Republic Day of India.
Speaking in the presence of Ukrainian Deputy Foreign Minister Oleksandr Mishchenko, the ambassador noted that India supports “practical cooperation among all interested parties” and quoted Prime Minister Narendra Modi: “This is not an era of war.”
The ambassador also stressed that India remains one of Ukraine’s main trading partners despite the ongoing conflict and that Indian companies “will be happy to play a role in the restoration and reconstruction of Ukraine,” pointing to potential cooperation in the fields of digital public infrastructure, manufacturing, green energy, and new and promising technologies.
According to the speech, India will continue its humanitarian aid and plans to finance a $1.5 million project to modernize the surgical center of the Zbarazh Central Hospital in the Ternopil region as part of the High Impact Community Development Projects.
The ambassador also noted the growing interest in Indian culture and language in Ukraine and pointed out that the bilateral cultural cooperation program provides a framework for expanding exchanges, scholarships, and people-to-people contacts.
India recognized Ukraine’s independence on December 26, 1991. Diplomatic relations were established on January 17, 1992, and the Indian Embassy in Kyiv opened in May 1992. The Ukrainian Embassy in New Delhi was established in February 1993.
Republic Day is a national holiday in India, celebrated on January 26 to mark the coming into force of the Constitution in 1950, when India became a sovereign democratic republic. The date was chosen to commemorate the Indian National Congress’s proclamation of “Purna Swaraj” (complete self-rule) in 1930.

“After this meeting with Putin, we hope to be able to also discuss the peace plan with US President Trump. Peace is around the corner; we see it,” Erdogan said, referring to his bilateral meeting with Putin in Turkmenistan on Saturday.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has noted the efforts of the Prime Minister of Israel to find ways to peace.
The Israeli “Prime Minister, Minister [Naftali] Bennett, is trying to find a negotiating path with Russia, and we are grateful for every effort for us to start talking with Russia, sooner or later,” Zelensky said in a video address early on Monday.
“Possibly in Jerusalem. This is the right place to find peace, if this is possible,” Zelensky said.
Zelensky recalled that he spoke on Sunday in the Israeli Knesset, but, he noted, “spoke on your behalf with the people of Israel, who understand us as free people of free people.”
He said, “Israel has its interests and a strategy of protecting its citizens, we understand all that,” Zelensky said.
