When Could the Era of Wars Begin to End? A Forecast Based on Deep Analysis

Why today’s conflicts may last longer than people hope — and what history, power, corruption, ideology, religion, public fatigue and institutional decay reveal about the real conditions for peace.

There are moments in history when people stop asking who will win the next war and begin asking a darker question: does the world still remember how to stop wars at all? 

That is the true question of our age. We are no longer watching one isolated conflict, nor even two or three separate confrontations unfolding in parallel. We are living through a period in which war, coercion, strategic intimidation, ideological hostility and political radicalisation have once again become acceptable tools of power in too many parts of the world. The result is not only destruction on battlefields. It is the normalisation of tension as a permanent condition of modern life.

Zelenskyy Allows Putin to Hold a Parade on Red Square

How a war launched by Russia with the ambition of a lightning victory reached the point where Ukraine, by official decree, excluded Red Square from the plan for the use of its weapons during Moscow’s parade.

In February 2022, the world was discussing how many hours Kyiv would hold out. In May 2026, the world is discussing a very different question: why the President of Ukraine has signed an official decree “permitting” a parade in Moscow and, for the duration of that parade, excluding the territorial square of Red Square from the plan for the use of Ukrainian weapons.

This is not merely a legal formality. It is political theatre, a diplomatic signal, a military demonstration of capability and historical irony at the same time.

XXXV. The United States: why the world still watches the Federal Reserve first

No analysis of interest rates, credit and investment activity is complete without beginning with the United States, because the American monetary system still casts the longest shadow over global finance.

The Federal Reserve is the central banking system of the United States, which performs five general functions to promote the effective operation of the U.S. economy, including managing inflation and maximizing employment through monetary policy.

This is not merely because the Federal Reserve is powerful in a formal sense. It is because the U.S. dollar remains central to the architecture of trade, reserves, sovereign borrowing, commodity pricing, institutional portfolios and cross-border corporate finance. When American rates change, they do not remain inside America. They ripple outward through the global financial bloodstream.

There are periods in economic history when money is simply money: a neutral medium, a technical instrument, a background condition to ordinary commercial life. And then there are periods when the price of money becomes the main character in the story.

We are living through the second kind.
