... acting in the interests of security for all. Now NATO, or its incarnations in Asia, cannot claim to perform functions that are needed by everyone. The bloc serves the geopolitical interests of the “collective West.” Accordingly, the problems that NATO enlargement has created in Europe, which have already led to a possible need to fulfil military commitments, are likely to be repeated in Asia. Western Europeans see China as a beneficial partner rather than a threat, but within the framework of a common policy standpoint with ...

Consequences of Europe's Strategic Failure

... the creation of a common economic policy through financial instruments within the Eurozone. Additional evidence here is the specific behaviour of the European Union institutions, which after February 2022 simply play the role of an economic branch of NATO. European leaders looked so helpless at the beginning of last year not because they were bad themselves. The real reason for their disability to stop the region’s slide into the most serious crisis since the mid-20th century, and then integration into ...

Baltic Sea Region: New Realities and New Problems

... probability, but one cannot ignore the danger of a serious deterioration of the situation in the Arctic, which also can affect the Baltic Sea region. Now the West has chosen a course to transform the Baltic Sea into a so-called “internal sea of the EU and NATO.” The main direction of pressure on Russia, as now, will apparently be in the economic sphere – the “war of attrition” will continue in the foreseeable future. In this case, a variety of methods will be used, and not only sanctions and restrictions....

A Reaction and a Reasoning of Georgian Political Establishment’s Backlash on Velvet Revolution in Armenia

... also led to total abandonment of those ties that previously existed. The newly formed pro-Western elites were mainly focused on what they perceived as “historical goal” of the nation – to become member of the Western world, meaning integration to NATO and EU. Thus, Tbilisi experienced a move from the post-Soviet space to an area politically and economically dominated by the West; for example, USA, EU member states and Ukraine. The same changes took place at Georgian universities and academia. Armenia as ...

False and Real International Institutions in the 21st Century

... West and can thus correct the assessments proposed almost 30 years ago by Mearsheimer. The main thing here, as we have already noted, is the absence of a clearly defined power base. Both international institutions are, in this sense, the antipodes of NATO and the European Union -the pinnacles of the institutional building of the West. NATO was built around the rigid core of absolute US military dominance over its allies. This allows this organisation to avoid serious internal conflicts, and also ensures its most ...

Is Poor Greece a NATO Charity?

... having been battered by the IMF, Brussels and the European Bank into the status of an economic slave: hundreds of thousands of young people have left the country; the unemployment rate is high; and social services have been seriously eroded. Source: Reuters But Greece is now also a politico-military slave, barely responsible for its foreign policy, which is dictated by an Anglo-Saxon-led NATO. Not since the German appointed collaborationist government of 1941–1943 has there been such a wide gap between the people and their alleged leaders. Yet despite this, Greece has sent weapons to the Ukraine, and continues to do so. When the Ukrainian ...

The sun rises in the East: A plea for identity, nations and international understanding

... complementarity, which must be the guiding concept in the future. When the old departs and a new world order has not yet been established, the unstable “interim period” is unfortunately often associated with destruction, war and suffering. As it is now… A NATO war in Europe War is raging again in the middle of Europe. Who would have thought it would be reality again? Suddenly, NATO’s eastern flank is being rearmed and even expanded through the inclusion of new member states, as Finland and Sweden wait on NATO’s ...

G20: Does Multilateralism Have a Chance?

... West freely interpreted the resolutions on Yugoslavia. This pushed that country to form separate, much weaker associations, and NATO ensured its further disaggregation by force. The reflections of that fire are still visible, as we know. The American masters ... ... organisation worked exactly as long as its decisions brought benefits primarily to the developed countries like the USA and Europe. Similar stories can be told about almost any of the multilateral institutions, where the membership of the “older” ...

The Erosion and Undermining of the Transatlantic Relationship

... Nord Stream international gas pipeline, then this extraordinary event can be a good illustration of the pressure under which the phenomenon of the Transatlantic relationship is. This unique international community, uniting the United States and Western Europe, came into being as a result of World War II. It has always been based on two factors. First, the unconditional power dominance of America over its allies in all components of the total power capabilities of the state: military, economic and ideological....
