An urgent call-to-action outlining how we can prevent a global conflict in the near-future from Tobias Ellwood, former soldier, Foreign Minister, Defence Minister and Chair of the House of Commons Defence Select Committee. As the global order fractures, conflict is returning – and we are not prepared. Another world war is no longer unthinkable. But unlike the last, it will not be fought on a single front. Instead, there will be multiple conflicts, across multiple domains. A new cold war has already begun, where influence, information and ideology are weaponised, and America and China compete to shape the future. How did we get here? What must be done? And where is the statecraft needed to prevent a slide into World War Three? In Ten Steps to Prevent World War Three, Tobias Ellwood draws on frontline experience, history and geopolitical insight to set out a clear and urgent plan: rebuilding our hard power, restoring our soft power, strengthening alliances, and creating the off-ramps needed to step back from the brink. The stakes could not be higher. But the future is not yet decided. These are the steps that will lead us out of conflict and into a better world.
