As Governor of Massachusetts, Romney built a record as a competent and moderate conservative, a political profile that suited him to the state s electorate. But the Republican Party s far right wing dominates the primaries, so Romney has worked hard to escape the moderate label by staking out very conservative positions.

I should like at the outset to stress that, far from being reactive, Africa, in formally submitting its draft resolution, is staking its claim as a powerhouse of ideas with its vision of a renewed, more democratic and more representative Security Council.

Manuel Valls, France s Socialist prime minister, is staking his political capital on an ambitious program of tax and spending cuts that does not enjoy the backing of his party s traditionalist wing. Critics from the orthodox left accuse him of taking solutions from Blair and Schröder.

When the Georgian authorities announced plans to privatize the Inguri Power Plant and renew construction of the long stalled Khudoni Power Plant, slated to become Georgia s largest, RAO UES immediately began staking out a dominant role for itself in both projects. The combination of massive pressure from the Russian side and silence from the West could leave Georgia s entire power system both gas and electricity in Russian hands.

Over the centuries, Japan and China have taken turns dominating East Asia, and both now seek to assert regional hegemony. Historically, the Korean Peninsula was the playground for this rivalry, but, with North and South Korea appearing to make peace with each other, South Korea is also staking a claim to regional influence.

Similarly, China is staking its claim to the South China Sea in full violation of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea on the basis of vague histories of bygone empires. Both countries are now behaving as if power is a zero sum game dictated by the old rules of realpolitik.

Most notably, in the South and East China Seas, China has been staking its claim to disputed island territories, deploying advanced military hardware, and aggressively patrolling an expanded security zone. Meanwhile, leaks from Chinese think tanks have suggested that if the North Korean regime collapses, China could well send troops to preserve the country s stability.

China s increasing assertiveness in staking its claims contributed to the landslide victory of the defense minded Liberal Democrats in Japan, and to the conservative Park Geun hye s election as South Korea s first ever female president. Rising regional tensions also provided the backdrop to US President Barack Obama s trip to Southeast Asia shortly after his re election.
