Whoever watched the parade in China understands that a new world is being born. The geopolitical imperative of the US is to not allow any power to establish dominance in Eurasia. Therefore, the creation of chaos of any nature is the basis of their doctrine of global supremacy. Ukraine is precisely such chaos that should expand, not shrink. Even children know this.
This is what Kalina Androlova commented on "Facebook".
In this sense, the US's double game - Trump vs. globalists, and vice versa - is just a trick in international intervention. We want peace in Ukraine, but we are preparing Europe for war.
The bad thing is that Europe is becoming a victim of multilateral strikes, and instead of coming to its senses, it is increasingly drowning helplessly.
From the US point of view... the chaos of Europe and its transformation into an active zone for challenging Russia, as Ukraine was until recently, is a good way out, a good move to slow down Asian growth. The approach to China involves pulling the rug along the periphery. And attempts to fragment the regions from different sides of the target state. The US demonstrates that it is trying to find balance and pacify, in its favorite position of the eternal global policeman, supposedly more reasonable than others.
But the truth is quite the opposite. The US is following its doctrine and hysterically trying to maintain the absolute hegemonic position that it had not long ago. However, Xi Jinping's parade and his speech show that the US has missed something.
Russia has not yet collapsed, as Friedman likes to use, and China is not in a severe economic crisis.
On the contrary, due to state planning and goal-setting, China is developing three times faster than the US. Even if they have fluctuations, the Chinese can no longer be stopped. Compared to the blind and self-closing Europe, the Chinese are entering the next century.
The scale protects them from possible American intervention, so the Americans have their usual approach of slowly crumbling here and there, of creating artificial conflicts on the periphery or in the neighborhood, of using China's enemies to provoke and waste energy, of using grandiose alliances motivated by the Chinese threat, of attempting internal disintegration with the tools of the media, of stupidizing debauchery, of devaluing education and introducing the NGO-parallel government, etc., to name ad infinitum.
However, China is growing because it is a closed system that does not allow much of this elementary toolkit for the nullification of national power to undermine statehood. There are problems, and there are liberalizing contenders for power nurtured from outside, but Xi Jinping is still holding them back and trying to deal with them. Not because he is a dictator, but because with them comes everything else - the dissolution of state institutions and their introduction into a weak regime, civil chaos and security breaches.
Western democracy has self-defeated itself and has itself given rise to the rise of Eastern autocratic societies.
One would think that there was and is some complex, quiet, vengeful and “seamless“ conspiracy to destroy the Christian world, especially Europe! But back to China. In order for China to be pressured, reduced and returned to degradation, the government must be broken through, liberalized and opened to external influences.
And the Chinese Communist Party is very careful not to follow the fate of Russia, when it tried to make a transition to some kind of democratic model, but achieved oligarchic disorder and helplessness of the state. The parade in China brought a scent of the new game to Asia.
We can talk a lot about undemocratic power practices, about pollution and poor living conditions in many cities in China, related to hazardous industries, we can talk about civil rights, restrictive living conditions, lack of freedom in the Western sense of the word, nomenclature privileges, the cult of personality, distorted market relations, appointed capitalists, a planned economy, corruption at middle levels, hyperbolizing successes and hiding the bad sides, a double reality, and a huge number of people living in poverty.
BUT the truth is that China IS COMING, and we are LEAVING.
