Global leadership

A very simple question for the weekend: now that the new President of the US is manifestly not capable – or not interested, you chose the most appropriate word – of leading the world, who is going to fill the empty space?

Humanity will continue the common quest for peace and prosperity. That´s the way things are today, when there is greater conscience about the issues and a stronger popular determination to move forward. But where can we find the global leadership that such endeavour requires?

You might think of two or three possible names, of course. The question is then: do they have the right level of authority? Do they have the leverage that the leader of the most powerful country in the world used to have?

Let´s think about this.
