🌍 Where is the world heading? Multipolar chaos

➖The emergence of multipolarity is the most important trend in global affairs. In fact, by and large multipolarity has already arrived. The diverse countries that make up the World Majority, which today account for the lion’s share of the global economy, are pursuing increasingly independent and proactive foreign policies, putting forward their own initiatives to resolve key conflicts, and demanding a greater role in resolving major global challenges.

➖Although key non-Western centres of power (🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊 member states and partner countries) had been pursuing independent policies for quite some time and playing an increasingly important role, both in their own regions and in matters of global governance, the decisive breakthrough toward achieving genuine multipolarity occurred in the period 2022–2025, in which Russia played a key role.
➡ Despite a concerted multi-year effort, the West has failed to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia.
➡ The overwhelming majority of developing countries have refused to follow the West’s anti-Russian policy line, demonstrating a willingness to maintain and even strengthen cooperative ties with Russia, naturally in pursuit of their own interests. This has given rise to the ‘World Majority’ as a broad cross-section of countries worldwide that share a commitment to upholding national independence and sovereignty.

➖ However, the current emergence of a multipolar world is being accompanied by rising global disorder, chaos, and an alarming level of global ungovernability. The legacy system of global governance, designed for a fundamentally different era, is rapidly deteriorating; in fact, it is collapsing before our eyes. It is failing to keep pace with the new balance of power, which itself has not yet reached equilibrium and is in rapid flux.

➖ There are several factors underlying the growing global disorder.
➡ These include Washington’s continuing and even intensifying struggle to shore up and maintain the United States’ accustomed global primacy and supposed superiority through illiberal means, while simultaneously undermining the world order;
➡ the European Union’s focus on confrontation and even war with Russia, making the EU one of the main sources of instability in the world; the intensification of rivalry between many non-Western centres of power;
➡ and the degradation of the legacy system of global governance, as manifested by the weakening of its traditional institutions, including the UN, and its increasing inadequacy in the face of the emerging multipolar system, in light of the absence of a new system, or at least its insufficient development.
