Top Theme: Power structures fragmenting—governance reset (Bangladesh), tech sovereignty wars, climate coordination collapse.
Notable:
- Bangladesh BNP landslide; geopolitical reset for South Asia water treaties
- China's top general (Xi's deputy) purged; PLA restructuring signals
- Trump EPA erases climate endangerment finding; 18bn more tons CO2 by 2055
- AI infrastructure race: India, Middle East, Latin America all moving for sovereignty
- Western publics show rising WWIII anxiety; transatlantic fractures surfacing
Mood: Fragmentation
Pattern: When institutions lose legitimacy, power decentralizes locally but lacks cohesion. Tech becomes sovereignty battleground. Climate "solutions" fail due to loss of shared authority. Each region building walls rather than coordinating—expect continued cascading failures and regional adaptation silos.
