But the clock is ticking ever louder, so how long have they got?
Professor Michael Clarke and Dr. Jack Watling explain the types of conflict that could lie ahead, when they could happen, and what we need to be ready for those risks.

Kate Gerbeau presents, with expert analysis from Professor Michael Clarke.
