A shift in world order usually occurs through war. Very rarely are those who wield global power willing to relinquish it voluntarily. They hold on until the very end, until they are destroyed and reduced to ruins. The same is undoubtedly true today.

Different twists and turns happen in history, of course. Therefore, one could only hypothetically expect, hope, or at least wish that Western leaders will voluntarily relinquish their hegemony. But something tells me that this is unlikely to happen. And if it does not happen, then there will be war. This war is already underway: the war in Ukraine, the wars in the Middle East. But it is not yet in full force. So far, it is only a harbinger of the huge, fundamental war that will be fought over the redistribution of real sovereignty between the forces that are being demarcated today.

Nowadays we often say: look, the multipolar world is here, the world is no longer unipolar, there's BRICS, there's "greater humanity," and so on. However, we can see that the hegemony of the unipolar system is still strong. This is despite the fact that it is actually declining, and despite the fact that its colossal internal crisis, the implosion rather than explosion of Western society and the entirety of Western civilization, is clearly brewing. But, in some sense, despite the vector of this downward wave, Western hegemony is still stronger than multipolarity.

Let us be frank: it is still capable of, for example, reshaping the situation and balance of power in the post-Soviet space. We know that the globalists have been operating in Ukraine, Moldova, the South Caucasus, and Central Asia for three decades. But we allowed them to do so. And now, even despite the West's split into two or even three forces — the globalists, the EU, Trump and MAGA — they have nevertheless succeeded in strong-arming elections in Romania, replacing candidates that are undesirable for the globalists, killing several dozen candidates from Alternative for Germany, covering it up as "accidents," and, finally, they have managed to strong-arm elections in Moldova. At the same time, the war in Ukraine is ongoing. The West is not retreating, and it is very difficult for us to achieve decisive Victory.

It is too early to say that the Western unipolar world no longer exists. It does exist, albeit in agony.

And, of course, it is quite likely that if the unipolar world does not simply collapse in the near future, all of this will spill over into a big war.

I am not sure where this war will take place, whether in the Pacific Ocean against China or against India, in the Middle East, or whether it will directly involve us.
