After 20 January, will we see a meeting of the Big Three, China, the USA and the Russian Federation, perhaps in Kazakhstan, in the heart of the Heartland? If so, that will mark the end of the old post-1945 settlement and with it the end of the lingering remains of any domination of Western Europe. If so, the Big Three will discuss the future of security in the new multipolar world, neither unipolar, nor bipolar, after the emergence of these three Regional Superpowers, each with its own sphere of influence around it. These are:
The Russian Federation, with its sphere of influence of Belarus, the Ukraine, or whatever it will be called, the rest of the old Russian Empire of Eurasia, but now also including the Korean Peninsula and Western Europe; the USA, perhaps renamed the USNA, the United States of Northern America, with its sphere of influence of Greenland, its 51st State, Canada, Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean, perhaps extending even to Iceland, Ireland and the British Isles, but only if those Isles can be liberated from its Fascist Establishment; China with its sphere of influence of East Asia, Taiwan, Japan, the Philippines and perhaps even neighbouring Australia and New Zealand. The rest of Asia will be dominated by the three ‘I’s – Indonesia in South-East Asia, India in South Asia and Iran in West Asia. Elsewhere, in Africa and probably also in South America, there will be decolonisation and the turning to China and Russia.
Debilitated Europe is irrelevant to the Big Three, as Europe is imploding, which process already began with Brexit. The European countries have all lost their war with Russia, and they include once neutral countries like Switzerland, Sweden and Finland. The future of Europe is in Eurasia = Russia. Already Danish socialists want Russian help to protect Greenland. But Russia will not help a country which sent arms to fight against it. Much will happen in Europe first. Soon Russia will control Odessa, and so the Black Sea and the Danube delta. All of South-East Europe will be the first to fall into the Russian sphere of influence. Hungary, Slovakia and now Croatia are clearly anti EU, and probably Czechia, Slovenia and Austria, with its new national-popular government, are also heading to freedom.
Romania is now racked by protests and rebellion against the EU elite, which forbade the Romanian people to have the President of their choice. The EU cancels elections, as it wills. Be careful, however, the Romanians shot the last unelected President who was imposed on them. And then what will happen in Moldova? Surely it will join a liberated Romania with a new national government, And in much-wronged, but Russia-loving Serbia and the countries around it? And in Bulgaria, already moving closer to Russia? And Greece and Russian Cyprus? The whole of South-East Europe is now moving towards Russia and China, with impoverished Italy and imploding Germany not far behind them. Germany cannot live without Russia.
Once Germany has renewed its relations with Russia, it will leave the EU, after which the EU will collapse. The trainwrecks of NATO and the EU are not going to survive their defeat in the Ukraine, especially not in South-East Europe. Nor will Western European financial markets, which will probably face recession, stagflation or even hyperinflation. As for Syria, it is in chaos, caused by the Western removal of Assad. This chaos is spreading to Syria and Turkey. The prophecy of St Paisios the Athonite that Erdogan will be the last President of Turkey is coming true, for Turkey itself is not long for this world. As to Armenia, the foolish choices of its elite are costing it dear.
Some believe that the victory of Russian Tradition after the Ukrainian conflict is also the victory of Western conservatism. This is not true. Russian Tradition is all about traditional values, whether Orthodox Christian, Muslim (15%), Buddhist or other. In other words, Russian Tradition is constructive, for it not only believes in social conservatism, but also believes in social justice. However, Western conservatism is destructive, as it is all about supremacy and domination, notably it is anti-Muslim and anti-socialist. It will have to change, if the Western world is to survive.
