Are we sleepwalking into World War III?

A Financial Times commentary asks whether the world's major powers are drifting, through miscalculation and escalation, into a third world war. The piece frames current geopolitical tensions as echoes of the pre-1914 period, when complacent leaders stumbled into catastrophic conflict. Readers are debating whether today's rivalries in Europe, the Middle East and Asia are being managed carefully or left to spiral unchecked.

Why now: Rising global tensions have renewed public anxiety that small conflicts could escalate into a world war.
