The more distant the personal experiences of war, the more Remembrance matters. As the Byzantine Emperor Maurice said, “the nation that forgets its defenders will itself be forgotten”. These days fewer people know their history. And this also matters because the current strategic and political context is markedly less stable than at any time since World War Two.
The threats are diversifying, proliferating and intensifying rapidly. The global playing field is characterized by constant confrontation, with a return to a former era of great power competition. Ambitious states such as Russia, China and Iran are asserting themselves in ways that challenge our security, stability and prosperity.
