85725 - The big chessboard
N. Lygeros
It’s impressive to understand
 how big the geopolitical chessboard is.
 Because everybody
 at the first level
 considers that the local problems have
 only local solutions.
 But even a local problem can have a source
 which is global.
 By the way, as a local problem
 can produce global repercussions,
 a global can create
 many local problems.
 And when you try to solve them
 as if they were independent
 you fail because, in reality,
 it’s a network.
 The leaves of the same tree
 can be independent
 only when they are dead.
 So you have to consider
 this kind of problem
 in a totally different way.
 The chessboard is bigger
 than the usual one…
