Deal with it : Dualism drives the thinking of Western minds

For 30 years M. K. Bhadrakumar was an Indian diplomat. He is now retired and writes about "Indian foreign policy and the affairs of the Middle East, Eurasia, Central Asia, South Asia and the Asia-Pacific". His views are those of a humanist who has reflected during his entire life on how the last Centuries of Asian misery, at the hands of white Christian Europeans, are shaping the cultural contours of Eurasia in this 21st century.

China will be instrumental in solving Europe's security and some more.

The USA was powerless to prevent Russia from acting in Ukraine to guarantee its security. And its adventurism, in the face of its loss of hegemony, excludes the possibility that the USA could ever be part of a solution to Europe's security problem. To have any security at all Europe will, one day, be forced to recognize the fact that the grand-mother of all civilizations is the sole impartial mediator that has the necessary wisdom to possibly avoid a Europe-wide conflict by guiding the parties directly concerned to a solution that is acceptable to all.

Separating Europe from China in the hope of remaining forever the sole Tiger on the mountain

Over the whole of its time-span Modernity has witnessed 7 shifts of the center of gravity of its economy-world. An eight’s shift is presently in the works that moves the center of gravity of the economy-world from the USA to China. But this time around it is leaving the territorial domain of the Western civilization for what Western eyes view as an "otherworldly" civilization. And Western minds have difficulties to accept this unfolding reality.

The great game for the soul of humanity in tomorrow's world

The context of Russia's two Treaty proposals with the West just got unveiled without ambiguity by Sergey Karaganov in an article, titled "It’s not really about Ukraine", that got published yesterday by RT :

"The security system in Europe, built largely by the West after the 1990s without a peace treaty having been signed after the end of the previous Cold War, is dangerously unsustainable.
... There are a few ways to solve the narrow Ukrainian problem ... But the task is wider: to build a viable system on the ruins of the present. And without resorting to arms, of course. Probably in the wider Greater Eurasian framework. "

What is at stake is thus what kind of a world we are going to be living in tomorrow !

Geopolitics was shaken to the core this 4th of February !

 

 

 Some Western commentators speculate that Western societies are facing a moment of truth because '...perhaps we are touching the crux of what is hybrid warfare that threatens the System with general upheaval.'
