Looking ahead, Sachs discussed the emergence of a multipolar world, where nations like China, Russia, and India play increasingly significant roles. He advocates for a multilateral approach where powerful countries can cooperate under shared rules to address global challenges, notably climate change and international security.

He noted that Trump could, under his administration, lead to a de-escalation of the Ukraine conflict if he pursued peace through direct negotiations.
