Global leaders agree that the post-1945 world order had broken down, as they say it is an era of new geopolitics and a new world order. Dalio's post on X highlighted how global leaders emphasised that the old world order was gone at the Munich Security Conference. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio highlighted that we are in a “new geopolitics era” because the “old world” is gone.
