Global geopolitical conflict risk projections

Overview

Artificial intelligence analyses have identified a period of heightened geopolitical risk between 2028 and 2035. While a major global conflict is not considered likely within the next one to two years, the models suggest that serious confrontations could escalate into larger wars during the next decade. Potential flashpoints include a direct clash between Russia and NATO or tensions between the United States and China regarding Taiwan.

These projections coincide with rising public anxiety regarding international stability. In Slovakia, surveys indicate that nearly two-thirds of the population fears a global conflict within the next five years. Experts and AI models note that while political rhetoric has sharpened, a global war might stem from an unplanned chain reaction triggered by regional disputes rather than a planned attack. Despite these risks, nations maintain strong incentives to avoid large-scale warfare.

Recent developments reflect increasing regional instability. In Poland, Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski has expressed “grave concerns” regarding the security situation at the Polish-Ukrainian border. He reported that Polish border guards have experienced distress due to shockwaves from Russian drone explosions occurring near the border. Sikorski has called for solidarity from the United States, comparing the current need for protection to the global unity seen after the September 11 attacks. Additionally, border congestion has increased as Ukrainians flee strikes on energy infrastructure, with wait times reaching up to 40 hours. In Estonia, Tallinn has opened its first publicly accessible camouflage-style shelter.
