Russia has become more nationalized and the Chinese influence in the east has been somewhat curtailed as Russia is more in need of the resources that were leased out. They haven't been booted out but that's probably coming soon or they will ally with each other which I don't see as being any sort of lasting thing.

Copper, coal, molybdenum, fluorspar, uranium, tin, and tungsten collectively dwarf gold mining, and China is the largest investor in those. So in both of the cases that you cite, the speaker was correct.

Funny that there are actually a quasi-living organisms that routinely "persuade" bacteria to do just that. They are called viruses.

Solutions to historic problems - seriously what a waste of time. He overlooks and oversimplifies things and gets paid for it (useless stuff ) . A third party cannot solve a border dispute between 2 nations . It depends only on the trust between those 2 nations , peoples and goverments . Russia and China solved some of their long running disputes after tensions cooled and egos had calmed. But many other disputes will not get solved that easily.

It was a projected scenario based on then geopolitical pattern n promising trade policies among most of the nations. He was right about South Sudan and Greenland as well, with Greenland just a matter of time. They are already self-governing with its own parliament since 2009(probably the reason of separation from Denmark he talked about). However one of the issues they might face once they become sovereign is their very economy. Its predicted to be one of the poorest economies in the world with horrible infrastructure (again the reason yet to be separated)

What he said about 'change' being the only constant feature is true. After (almost) a decade after he delivered this speech of his, the world is significantly different, though not with any more new borders, but that as a potential factor. He hasn't covered much on trade, but now 'trade' has become a new force & an alternate to war - its war by other means. Gone are the days when people used to think 'Trade' as all peaceful or a vehicle for peace. Trade can trigger wars.

This is what Evgeny Morozov had to say about Parag Khanna in one of his book reviews published by The New Republic: All of these insights are expressed in linguistic constructions of such absurdity and superficiality (“a world of ever-shifting (d)alliances,” “peer-to-peer micromanufacturing marketplace”) that Niall Ferguson’s “Chimerica” looks elegant and illuminating by comparison. Khanna must be a gifted schmoozer, too: the acknowledgments sections of his books are primary documents of contemporary name-dropping. Khanna’s contempt for democracy and human rights aside, he is simply an intellectual impostor, emitting such lethal doses of banalities, inanities, and generalizations that his books ought to carry advisory notices. Khanna does not really care about the details of policy. He is a manufacturer of abstract, meaningless slogans. He is, indeed, the most talented bullshit artist of his generation. newrepublic.com/article/105703/the-naked-and-the-ted-khanna

It is really strange that Pakistani think of breaking India. But don't think of their own population. They don't think of their own infrastructure,trade, (exports and domestic). How come you guys don't think about strengthening your own country. Why don't you think about making the Indian subcontinent a better place to live and partnering with your neighbours to grow instead of fragmenting parts.
