  • More about Europe as the Western Peninsula of Greater Eurasia: Geoeconomic Regions in a Multipolar World


The increased economic connectivity across the Eurasian supercontinent is transforming Europe into the western peninsula of Greater Eurasia, with China and Russia leading efforts to integrate Europe and Asia into one large region. Europe must adapt to the new international distribution of power to preserve its strategic autonomy.

The Eurasian supercontinent's growing economic interconnectedness holds the potential to transform Europe into a significant western peninsula of Greater Eurasia. Throughout the unipolar era, the United States played a pivotal role in orchestrating the economic leadership of Europe and Asia, effectively establishing a US-led order. However, the emergence of "the rest," primarily driven by the rise of Asia, notably with China at its core, has marked the end of the unipolar era and even a century-long period of Western dominance. China and Russia are spearheading initiatives to merge Europe and Asia into a vast and integrated region. The Greater Eurasian region is envisioned as a cohesive entity characterized by three key pillars of economic connectivity: strategic industries built upon innovative and disruptive technologies, robust physical connections facilitated by bimodal transportation corridors, and enhanced financial interlinkages through the establishment of new development banks, trading currencies, and payment systems. China aims to establish itself as the preeminent geoeconomic leader, seeking to replace the US as the dominant force in the global arena. Meanwhile, Russia endeavors to reposition itself from the periphery of Europe and Asia to the center of a grand Eurasian geoeconomic constellation. As Europe finds itself situated between the trans-Atlantic region and Greater Eurasia, it is compelled to adapt to the evolving international power distribution to safeguard its strategic autonomy. This transformative shift in global dynamics presents both opportunities and challenges for Europe, as it navigates a complex web of economic, political, and geopolitical forces to shape its future trajectory.
