GEOPOLITICAL CONTEXT
Les divergences reflètent directement les alignements géopolitiques post-guerre froide et les intérêts nationaux. Le bloc atlantiste (US, UK, CA, AU) maintient une solidarité sécuritaire face à l'Iran, tandis que l'axe eurasiatique (RU, CN, IR) défend un ordre multipolaire anti-hégémonique. L'Europe occidentale (FR, DE) cherche une troisième voie diplomatique, reflétant sa volonté d'autonomie stratégique. Les puissances émergentes (IN, BR, SG) privilégient le pragmatisme économique sur l'idéologie géopolitique. Les pays du Moyen-Orient s'alignent selon leurs calculs sécuritaires régionaux : Israël et ses nouveaux partenaires arabes (EG, MA) versus l'axe de résistance. Ces fractures révèlent la fin de l'ordre unipolaire américain et l'émergence d'un système multipolaire concurrentiel.
