Current global security landscape presents significant escalation risks, with heightened tensions between major powers. Nuclear posturing from Russia and potential US nuclear testing indicate increased strategic instability. The ongoing conflict in Ukraine continues to pose substantial geopolitical risks, while China's strategic moves in rare earth exports suggest economic warfare tactics. Military confrontations, particularly in Eastern Europe and potential maritime conflicts, remain areas of serious concern for US national security interests.
