The EU needs the Cold War to continue, but the US VP’s Munich speech signals a transatlantic divorce US Vice President J.D. Vance’s landmark speech at the Munich Security Conference on Friday has been attributed to various factors. Some say it was an ...
... absurd, then the major power will, of course, come to its aid, as happened at the time of the threat of the collapse of statehood in Kazakhstan in January 2022. Due to the fact that the existence of such a category as the “security umbrella” in the Russia-USA-Europe triangle is impossible even at a theoretical level, the only thing that Europeans get in return is an illusory confidence in the impunity of their own irresponsible behaviour. For now, it is in effect, and even the largest European countries behave ...
... European nations to further deplete their financial and military reserves in support of Kiev. However, this scenario could eventually force direct negotiations between Russia and the US, potentially leading to a lasting peace agreement that secures Russia’s interests. The second and more profound issue is Western Europe’s unwillingness to change. Its elites cling to their parasitic relationship with Washington, resisting any meaningful reforms or strategic shifts. This paralysis leaves the region trapped in its current state, unable to define its own future ...
... concerns over broader global cooperation. Russia’s Focus on Survival For Russia, 2025 is about two overarching goals: completing its military campaign in Ukraine and ensuring domestic stability. The government’s foreign policy remains firmly focused on Eurasia, with neighboring countries serving as its primary arena of influence. Against the backdrop of growing global confusion and fragmentation, Russia’s strategy emphasizes socio-economic resilience while carefully choosing where to focus its international efforts. A World in Transition The trends of 2025 paint a picture of a world in flux. The dominance of short-termism, the rise of regional ...
... ago. There has been a revival in efforts to oppose the Western diktat, with emerging economies and new centres of financial power in China, India, ASEAN, the Arab world, and CELAC replacing the USSR in this role. This group also includes a resurgent Russia together with its allies from the EAEU, the CIS, and CSTO. This also includes the SCO and BRICS, and many other emerging and rapidly developing associations across the world, in the countries of the Global South, or to use a better designation – within the Global Majority. A new reality ...
... democracy in danger because other countries have opted for another form of government? Or is our democracy in danger because we basically no longer live it and no longer know what democracy really means? Isn’t it actually the sanctions we have imposed on Russia that are causing Germany and the EU to falter as business locations, since we are cutting ourselves off from the cheap energy supplies we need? The old world order with the US as hegemon is at an end. It’s the end of the West’s eternal crusades in which political, economic and military ...
... course, was the internal enemy. Kissinger, in one of his early works, quite rightly points out that the basis of a relatively stable order is the mutual recognition of legitimacy by its participants. By recognising each other’s legitimacy, the largest European powers – Austria, Britain, Russia, Prussia and royal France – directly or indirectly acted together against the internal enemy, i.e., a potential revolution against their order. Thus, the external enemy of the countries of the Vienna order was revolution as such: an attempt by ...
... approach to Ukraine, trying to persify risks. Although it refuses to support Western sanctions against Russia, Serbia at the same time provides grenades to Ukraine through third countries worth 800 million euros from 2022, or one third of the total European contingent. Russians and Serbs are historically and spiritually close, and Serbia diplomatically relies on Russia, for example, in blocking Kosovo's admission to the UN. Nevertheless, Vučić tries to keep his distance from Russia in certain situations. Vučić reservedly ...
... early days of independence, Tbilisi hoped to sell its territory for the US to use as a military base for missions against Russia and Iran. Now the Georgian authorities are using their geography for peaceful purposes, becoming a kind of bridge between Russia, Turkey and Western Europe. Proof of this is the growing volume of German exports to Georgia. According to the latest data from the statistical services of the Federal Republic of Germany, these have tripled since February 2002 - from 30 million to 90 million euros per month ...
... alternatives to the current ‘European values’ under American auspices. As mentioned above, the breakthrough of the former ‘outcasts’ into the first echelon does not mean a rearrangement of the elites, but instead the normalization of the newcomers. The EU/NATO framework has a high safety margin to keep the political field within the same parameters. This brings us to the question of whether we should expect any changes in course that would affect Russian interests. So far, the answer is no. Source: RT
