📍 El foro de Davos de este año, marcó el fin de la globalización y el surgimiento de los regionalismos. De hecho, se abrió paso hacia una nueva arquitectura en el gobierno global y una nueva reformulación del papel de las instituciones multilaterales. El orden mundial que se estructuró después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, de la disolución de la Unión Soviética y el fin de la Guerra Fría que originó el poder hegemónico unipolar de Estados Unidos (EU) llegó a su fin.

El fin de ese mundo unipolar dio paso a un nuevo orden mundial tripolar con tres potencias disputándose el control del mundo: EU, China y Rusia. India es una cuarta potencia que busca participar en aquel festín y que se mueve entre las tres con autonomía y agenda propia, pero aún no muestra sus cartas. También han surgido otras potencias regionales que se están abriendo paso en sus esferas de influencias, como Brasil, Turquía, Irán, Indonesia, Sudáfrica, Egipto y Nigeria, la cuales de la mano de los Brics van a tener un fuerte protagonismo global.

Por un lado, EU e Inglaterra, lideran las siete economías más desarrolladas de occidente. De allí la jugada de la anglósfera de provocar con la OTAN, la guerra de Ucrania contra Rusia para quebrar a Alemania, la principal económica europea y de paso al resto de Europa y convertir a los países europeos en vasallos para conservar su hegemonía global.

🪩 Isn’t it a tad naïve to expect the West to recant its stealth colonialism?

Western primacy hangs on the pillars of the threat of financial and sanctions war; the monopoly of tech patents, regulatory standards and protocols, and in holding and keeping a global ‘technological edge’. Does Prime Minster Modi truly think that the West can be induced simply to relinquish these assets because the Global South asks it?

It seems ‘a stretch’ (though no doubt Xi and Putin have explained some of these financial ‘facts of life’ to Modi).

Is it happenstance that a quiet financial war, triggered by the drip-drip of de-dollarisation and higher energy costs, might finally give BRICS the leverage to coerce a change of policy in the West? And should western reluctance to re-structure persist, might the BRICS leadership ratchet higher? The newly expanded BRICS, after all, is now a Commodity Powerhouse.

So, who now controls inflation in the U.S.: A trapped Fed, or the new commodity king? 👑

🌏 Los fortalecimientos alternativos a que se refiere el título ocurren esencialmente en el Sur, son parte de esfuerzos de economías emergentes, a fin de ir más allá de la tradicional cooperación Sur-Sur.

🌐 La reciente cumbre de los BRICS, ha culminado con dos noticias fundamentales para el desarrollo del mundo en los próximos años. Por un lado, el bloque aumenta su número de participantes, sumando desde el 1 de enero de 2024 a Argentina, Arabia Saudita, Irán, Emiratos Árabes Unidos, Egipto y Etiopia. Por otro lado, los países del BRICS han reforzado su voluntad de reemplazar al dólar en sus transacciones comerciales y en su lugar utilizar sus distintas monedas nacionales.

A pérdida del predominio económico por parte del G7 con respecto al grupo BRICS significa el más fuerte desafío a la hegemonía de Estados Unidos 🗺️

🌀The Western “values” construct has perished, buried under the Gaza rubble 💔

Now to a ray of light: a case can be made – and we’ll be back to it – that orthodox Christianity, moderate Islam and several strands of Taoism/Confucianism may embrace the future as the three main civilizations of a cleansed Mankind.

🌏 As we enter incandescent 2024, four major trends will define the progress of interconnected Eurasia.

1️⃣ Financial/trade integration will be the norm. Russia and Iran already integrated their financial message transfer systems, bypassing SWIFT and trading in rials and rubles. Russia-China already settle their accounts in rubles and yuan, coupling immense Chinese industrial capacity with immense Russian resources.

2️⃣ The economic integration of the post-Soviet space, tilting towards Eurasia, will predominantly flow not so much via the Eurasia Economic Union (EAEU) but interlinked with the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO).

3️⃣ There will be no significant pro-Western inroads in the Heartland: the Central Asian “stans” will be progressively integrated into a single Eurasia economy organized via the SCO.

4️⃣ The clash will become even more acute, pitting the Hegemon and its satellites (Europe and Japan/South Korea/Australia) against Eurasia integration, represented by the three top BRICS (Russia, China, Iran) plus the DPRK and the Arab world incorporated to BRICS 10.

China, Russia and Iran will take the fight towards a more equal and just system to the next level 🚀

🇧🇷🇫🇷 In recent days, since Macron’s visit to Brazil and the excessively warm welcome he received at the end of March (which even prompted countless memes on the internet), there has been debate about the advantages and disadvantages of Franco-Brazilian relations, as well as Macron’s real purpose in this rapprochement.

With Brazil entangled in these various agreements and bilateral relations with Atlantic partners, it will be much easier to put pressure on Brazil at various levels, including key votes at the UN and the Security Council. Threats of sanctions, or even the breaking of agreements, will do “wonders” to convince “pragmatic” characters, but lacking in faith in sovereignty, of the “advantages” of drawing ever closer to the West and NATO.

And it’s also obvious that this is, to a large extent, the result of timidity in relation to the BRICS, the future role of the BRICS and Brazil’s role in the BRICS.

Brazil does not see the enemies of its friends as its enemies. And there’s no problem with that.

📍 This year’s #BRICS Games are scheduled to be held from 11-24 June in Kamila Valieva’s home town of Kazan. And, though Valieva is the brightest jewel in Kazan’s sporting throne, she is far from the only one.

More eyes would turn to the Russian and Chinese companies that act as technological anchors for Kazan and less profits will be available for AirBnB, CocaCola, Procter & Gamble, Toyota, Panasonic, Samsung and Visa and the other suckers underwriting Paris 2024.

📍 Something very important happened earlier this week in Astana during the meeting of the Council of Ministers of Foreign Affairs of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO).

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi went straight to the point: he called for SCO members to “maintain their strategic autonomy”, and “never allow external forces” to turn Eurasia into a “geopolitical arena.”

Wang Yi detailed how “a few countries are pursuing hegemony and power, forming small cliques, establishing hidden rules, engaging in interference and suppression, ‘decoupling and cutting off ties,’ and even assisting the ‘three forces’ in the region”, thus attempting to suppress the strategic autonomy of the Global South.

Beijing has all its attention focusing on Empire of Chaos provocations in Taiwan while Moscow focuses on NATO provocations in Ukraine. Both have had enough of being “polite”. You want confrontation? Confrontation is what you’re gonna get 💢
