Velina has emerged as the world’s foremost analyst of rapidly changing relationships among nations. Well before Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin publicly announced their partnership, Velina had already deemed it as the Dragonbear rival to US-led order. But just as the Dragonbear is now facing unanticipated economic limitations, she has been turning our attention to the newly crowned world’s most populated nation with the world’s highest economic growth rate, India, and to rapidly changing coalitions among other groups of nations which look to be forming alternative economic growth and security clusters.

I fullheartedly recommend Velina as the prime European source of geopolitical expertise in this new era of great power competition that play out in so many and so diverse domains across Eurasia and the wider world. Velina’s observations have often alerted me and kept me aware of what comes next. I never ignored her words

Velina Tchakarova is one of the few hands-on analysts of international affairs having a genuine understanding of complex-systems science. She understands the future through early recognition of evolving geopolitical patterns, and is unafraid to contradict prevailing beliefs.

Hello, I'm Velina Tchakarova!

“Geopolitics is the art of understanding the world’s power dynamics based on the conundrum of geographical space.”

Our values are:

  • Meaningful Connection: At FACE, we believe in the power of genuine relationships. Our commitment to fairness and integrity is at the heart of every interaction – akin to the trust and respect symbolized by a firm handshake. 
  • Simplicity: In the complex world of geopolitics, we stand for clarity and simplicity. We strive for total transparency in all our processes, ensuring our insights and recommendations are easy to understand and actionable. 
  • Glocalism: We honor the principle of glocalism, recognizing the importance of local context in a globalized world. We respect the diverse backgrounds of our clients and tailor our services to their unique regional circumstances.
