L.E.A.D. Project Brief: Trump's Return Scrambles Outlook
"US-China relations through 2024 remained marked by a paradox. On the one hand, ties displayed a distinct stabilization...With its time in office winding down, the Biden administration went into regulatory overdrive to deepen the “selective decoupling” of the two countries’ advanced technology ecosystems. China methodically responded in kind using its now-robust economic lawfare toolkit...Donald Trump’s return to the Oval Office portends a period of disruptive unpredictability in ties, although “Tariff Man” Trump can reliably be expected to enact additional impositions on Chinese imports."

ICAS MAP REPORT - Navigating the Arctic Shifts
"Following Russia’s annexation of Crimea in 2014 and crisis starting in Ukraine in 2022, the United States, European Union, and other Western imposed stringent sanctions on key sectors of Russia’s economy, particularly the energy sector. This report analyzes the effects of these sanctions on Russia’s economy, geopolitics, and security, with a focus on their impact on Russia’s Arctic liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects, such as Yamal LNG and Arctic LNG 2, both critical to the country’s energy export strategy."
