    The Biggest Global Risks for 2025 | TED Explains the World with Ian Bremmer

    Date:

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    2025 ushers in one of the most dangerous periods in world history — on par with the 1930s and early Cold War, says Ian Bremmer, president and founder of Eurasia Group and GZERO Media.

    Highlighting the top geopolitical risks for the year ahead, Bremmer explores the impact of Donald Trump’s return to power in the US, the breakdown of the US-China relationship, the consequences of a rogue Russia, the future of unchecked AI development and more, plus some bright spots amid these unprecedented challenges.

    This interview, hosted by TED’s Helen Walters, was recorded on January 6, 2025 as part of the series “TED Explains the World with Ian Bremmer.”

    Correction: At 39:06, Bremmer misspoke when he stated that China would reach carbon neutrality before 2030. He meant to say that China is set to reach peak carbon emissions before 2030. The peak emissions target, not the net-zero target year (2060), is what is expected to be met ahead of schedule.
