Chatham House – Security & Defence 2019
The implications for the international security landscape of current political uncertainties and upheavals remain unclear.
Arrangements for European and UK security cooperation post-Brexit have yet to be agreed, and the Trump administration continues to stress the need for greater burden sharing among NATO allies, highlighting the fault lines in current frameworks for multilateral security cooperation.
Meanwhile, Russia and China are asserting their interests and influence in an increasingly volatile geopolitical landscape while technological developments are changing the nature of warfare and the capability requirements for effective deterrence.
