The elections and summits that could move world tension, and what happened around past ones.
Why elections and summits matter for world tension
Elections can change a country’s foreign policy, its alliances or its trade rules, and summits can open or close a diplomatic channel. Riftrate lists the votes and meetings that could move world tension, and gives a page to each one when the country is tracked or when similar events are in the library. Each page shows the country’s armed-conflict intensity today and what currencies, oil and the index did around past elections and summits. After the event, the page points to the daily brief of that day. Past data, not a forecast. Not investment advice.
