Exploring the key drivers that shape a country’s foreign policy.

By examining elements such as open sea access, availability of natural resources, and United Nations veto power, we highlight the often-overlooked realities that can significantly impact a country’s position on the world stage.

While these factors are not deterministic, they can create opportunities or obstacles that persist regardless of current leadership. Our goal is to illuminate these enduring influences, thereby enhancing understanding of the complex dynamics that shape foreign policy across the globe.
