  "summary": "Geoeconomics, the strategic use of economic tools to achieve political and strategic objectives, is transforming global power dynamics, as highlighted by the recent Helsinki Geoeconomics Society Week. This shift has seen the world's two largest economies, the United States and China, increasingly employing tariffs, export controls, sanctions, critical minerals, and supply chains as instruments of statecraft. The event brought together private-sector executives, legal experts, policymakers, and scholars to discuss the implications of geoeconomics for the international order.
