What if…another civil war became international?: In this episode, civil war breaks out in the fictional country of Tcherba. The government suspends mediation talks with the Uralanskian Freedom Front and accuses the People’s Republic of Fijikistan of meddling in its internal affairs. Soon, the war is no longer confined to the national sphere, but rapidly becomes internationalised – a common feature of conflict today. Daniel Fiott and Katariina Mustasilta, both EUISS analysts, discuss with Florence Gaub where this trend is coming from – and how it is likely to evolve. by What if - The EUISS Foresight Podcast
