\n“When it comes to politics, our world is fractured. But when it comes to everything else, our world has never been more interconnected. Our conflicts are now borderless and they’re mobile. As a result, there’s a lot of fear. It’s a rational reaction but fear invokes irrational thoughts and behaviours, so it affects your decisions. People are strong forces of destruction, whether social, economical or political.”<\/p>\n

It can be very divisive in societies and really undermine social cohesion and harmony, and that’s something that we need to look out for. It’s a short-term agenda that gives results very quickly, but over the long term it’s very destructive and counterproductive for any society.”<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/middleeastevents.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/q-2.jpg\")
