Unquestioning Ukraine support is fracturing the world
Tom KirkmanIndependent Project Manager
Much of the Western world is studiously ignoring the fact that their unquestioning support for Ukraine is fracturing the world.
And endless Western sanctions against countries that the West disagrees with has driven Non-Western countries to seek alternatives, to avoid a similar fate.
The decline of the G20 coincides with the struggling rise of BRICS+.
I daresay that the more the West pours money into the bottomless pit of Ukraine, the more the backlash by Non-Western countries.
====================
“The redeeming quality of a tense G20 held in Bali – otherwise managed by laudable Indonesian graciousness – was to sharply define which way the geopolitical winds are blowing.
That was encapsulated in the Summit’s two highlights: the much anticipated China-US presidential meeting – representing the most important bilateral relationship of the 21st century – and the final G20 statement.
… Tellingly, there was absolutely no one from the Global South in the meeting – the sole Asian nation being the Japanese vassal, part of the G7.
Compounding the picture, we had the sinister Davos master Klaus Schwab once again impersonating a Bond villain at the B20 business forum, selling his Great Reset agenda of “rebuilding the world” through pandemics, famines, climate change, cyber attacks, and – of course – wars.
● As if this was not ominous enough, Davos and its World Economic Forum are now ordering Africa – completely excluded from the G20 – to pay $2.8 trillion to “meet its obligations” under the Paris Agreement to minimize greenhouse gas emissions.
… The 10 members of ASEAN had made it very clear they remain unwilling to follow the US and the G7 in their collective demonization of Russia and in many aspects China.
… And it gets worse. The self-described “leader of the free world” is shunning the extremely important APEC (Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation) summit in Bangkok at the end of this week.
… All of the above barely sketches the width and depth of the geopolitical and geoeconomic realignments further on down the road – affecting every nook and cranny of global trade and supply chain networks.
The G7’s obsession in isolating and/or containing the top Eurasian players is turning on itself in the framework of the G20. …”
