n this session at #Raisina2026, President Alexander Stubb (Finland) joins India’s External Affairs Minister Dr. S. Jaishankar to dissect the collapse of the post-Cold War order.

As President Stubb introduces his new thesis, The Triangle of Power, the panel pushes back against the traditional binary of East vs. West. From Dr. Jaishankar’s viral reminder that the last 70 years represent only 1% of Indian history, to an honest debate on why the "Global South" is an emotion, not just a demographic, this conversation challenges every assumption we hold about global governance.

In this video, we break down:

• The Multipolar Disorder: Why the world has shifted from a unipolar US-led system to a chaotic, multipolar reality.
• The Agency of the Global South: Why India and other emerging nations are no longer waiting for permission to shape global policy.
• Technology & Youth: How social media and the "cyborg" nature of modern citizenry are fundamentally changing foreign policy.
• The "Suboptimal" Solution: How multilateral institutions, including the EU, are forced to evolve through crisis, chaos, and compromise.
