Author: Jorge Dezcallar.
Jorge Dezcallar (Palma de Mallorca, 1945) has devoted his entire professional life to diplomacy and foreign policy. An experience that, in recent turbulent years, has allowed him to reflect on where the world is going and to capture it in this book, Abrazando el mundo (Embracing the World), which could not be more timely after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and in which he leaves concerns, suggestions and some ideas on what the course of geopolitics may be from now on. “The world’s slide towards an unfriendly multipolarism is confirmed in a trend that has accelerated with the COVID-19 pandemic,” says the former director of the CNI.
“In one fell swoop Putin has revitalised an Atlantic Alliance that Macron had given up for dead a few months earlier, has united us Europeans as never before, and has healed the wounds that Trump had inflicted on the transatlantic relationship. It has also put an end to the pacifism maintained by Germany since 1945, cast doubt on Sweden and Finland’s neutrality, and forced Europe to rethink its energy dependence on Moscow, while the whole world shudders at the brutality of the aggression and leaves Russia isolated,” Dezcallar points out.
