NSC at Seminar on Russia Course 2025: “Complex Challenges and Robust Responses?”

Major General (Retired) Paul Hurmuz, Senior Associate Expert at the New Strategy Center, was invited as Speaker to the Seminar on Russia Course 2025: “Complex Challenges and Robust Responses?”, on February 6, the first ever iteration of the George C. Marshall European Center for Security Studies’ (GCMC).
He was part of the “Flank Perspectives on the Future” Plenary, alongside Dr. Katarzyna Zysk from the Norwegian Institute for Defence Studies and Dr. Yevgeniya Gaber (GCMC) as moderator. The speakers’ objectives were to:
* Identify current challenges and assess responses to Russian confrontation and generated crises on the Northern and Eastern Flanks.
* Discuss the likely future evolution of such challenges and the associated strategic implications.

During the office call with the Director of the Center, Major General (Retired) Barre Seguin, the main subject was the way ahead after the very successful conference “Changing Dynamics in the wider Black Sea Region”, organized in Bucharest last year, with the support of GCMC.

At its core, a luxury mechanical watch is a triumph of micro-engineering. Imagine a universe contained within a diameter of 30 to 40 millimeters. Hundreds of tiny components—gears, levers, springs, and jewels—coexist in a perfectly orchestrated ballet.

The mainspring stores energy, releasing it with controlled grace through the gear train, its rhythm governed by the hypnotic swing of the balance wheel. This "heart" of the watch, beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour or more, is a miracle of physics and precision.
