The Week Ahead | 4/1/2019

Happy Monday. Good Luck out there this week.

Global Spotlight

Third Time’s (Not) the Charm. The British House of Commons rejected Prime Minister Theresa May’s Brexit deal a third time on March 29, which means that the United Kingdom is running out of time and out of options to avoid a disorderly Brexit on April 12.

Monroe, the Doctrine Is In. The arrival of 100 Russian troops in Caracas, Venezuela, is a loud signal to Washington that Moscow is willing to open another venue for great power competition.

Another Electoral Test in Turkey. The ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) could well find its grip on key urban centers like Ankara, Istanbul and Izmir weakened after local election results roll in March 31.

Spotlight on Ukraine. Ukraine is bracing for Russian interference when it goes to the polls on March 31. Ukraine’s Foreign Intelligence Service has warned that Russia could conduct unprecedented levels of cyberattacks during the elections and that Moscow has adapted its techniques in using social media to influence the vote to circumvent security policies put in place by Facebook after the 2016 U.S. presidential election campaign.
