YouTube Description
as posted by the channelSupport CaspianReport through Patreon:
BAKU - In 2016, the territorial disputes in the South China Sea will continue to remain the focus of attention in Asia. An important decision by the international tribunal is expected, one that will greatly influence the dispute. China’s economic slowdown will lead to lower metal prices, which will have enormous consequences for commodity producing sectors. Furthermore in India, the country will remain one of the fastest growing economies in the world but the security issues with neighboring Pakistan will continue.
Security will also play a big role in Libya, where the lack of a government will turn the country into a gateway for foreign fighters and arms headed to Central Africa. Aside this, a number of African nations will stand on the brink of civil war. But not everything is bad, in South America, Colombia is well on its way to peacefully settle a 50-year insurgency. And the new government of Argentina will begin addressing its financial problems through negotiations. Further North, the American public will continue the debate on racial violence, but the biggest issue for the United States will be the growing challenges to its status as the world’s sole superpower.
In this prognosis, we will go over the most likely diplomatic, economic and military outcomes for Asia, Africa, and South and North America in 2016.
