The article posits two major, unavoidable global trends: the unsustainability of the current monetary system and the necessity to win a new technological arms race focused on computation and information. It argues that Russia's attempts at resurgence are rooted in an aspirational framework rather than actual power, citing its inability to match past great powers.

- Modern geopolitical competition centers on computational power, information, and 5G technology, not just traditional weaponry.
