NEW BRIEFING | Gaza’s Ceasefire is Vital, but Only a Start Trump’s Gaza ceasefire is holding. But unless the truce is bolstered by sustained international diplomacy and pressure, the plan may collapse, leaving the decimated strip in limbo. crisisgroup.org/middle-east-…

Wrote this for @NewStatesman in December. Trump will either divide Europeans and make deals over their heads, or have the effect of pushing them together. Which force prevails depends entirely on Europe's leaders making choices they should have made at least a decade ago.

Dilemmas Trump poses for Europe may be profound. He sets up acute challenges for its leaders. But D.C is certainly not omnipotent & Europe is hardly weak, comprising some of the world’s biggest economies + 2 nuclear powers! @CrisisGroup President’s Take crisisgroup.org/global/dilem…

Spot-on analysis by @ICGlatam on the adjustments to Petro's Total Peace plans and the greater opportunities (and risks) involved in smaller scale negotiations with fractions of armed groups, still preferable to pursuing national-level agreements. 🇨🇴 1/2 crisisgroup.org/global/watch…

You will be hearing this a lot from us @CrisisGroup : There is growing policy dissonance between what the West wants from LatAm - to stop drugs - and what LatAm wants - to stop violence. Often those policies are directly at odds w one another, I told @cnni @StePozzebon

Prospects of the Gaza deal holding will remain slim unless outside powers are willing to exert significant leverage on the warring parties to abide by the ceasefire parameters – a daunting task in and of itself, but one well worth taking on. crisisgroup.org/middle-east-…

⚠️For the last three years, we @crisisgroup have warned about a deterioration in #Colombia’s conflict that risked sparking a new cycle of war. We are very concerned that moment is now. Escalations on various frontlines have taken the conflict to a very dangerous inflection point

Every January, @CrisisGroup lists 10 conflicts to watch in the year ahead. But beyond the war in Ukraine and Israel’s conflicts with Iran and Hamas, what else should we be keeping an eye on? @EroComfort joins FP Live on Jan. 9 to discuss. Register here: foreignpolicy.com/live/10-co…
