    The world is changing quickly. Countries are starting to challenge the US-led world order that emerged after World War 2. Countries like China and Russia are hoping to create their own system, based on their own rules and values, and the world’s most important growing economies are taking notice.

      I really don’t understand why you continuously repeating the same mistakes in many of your videos..??
      Why you call Mosaddegh government in Iran, a democratically elected…?
      It wasn’t… he was a prime minister selected by the Emperor of Iran and was kicked out by him according to the constitution of Iran then…But Mosaddegh tried to stage a coup against the shah with the help of clergy and USSR that was initially successful but after the coup he dismantled the parliament and the judiciary and wanted to start his own dictatorship that with the help of the US money, all the same clergy that initially supported him, all the members of parliament, the generals that didn’t want him as their new leader, and judges, he was kicked out eventually…!!
      In the Iranian constitution of the time, Shah selects and kicks out the prime ministers not election..!!
      Mosaddegh himself was against the elections since the constitutional revolution during the dynasty before Pahlavi…

    Honestly, as a Russian, I am very skeptical of this and believe that this 'New cold war' topic is inflated. I mean, the world is too globalized and interdependent right now. In the real cold war time, there was virtually no trade and closed borders between two blocks and now more than half of China's trade is with the West and vice versa. Every political move discussed is in my view hypocritical, since everyone keeps trading with everyone regardless of these 'alliances'. And that Brics are developing a new currency is just laughable, they aren't even an alliance (SA's president was to arrest Putin if he comes)

    • @Nickdpoul
      @Nickdpoul 9 місяців тому +433

      Even in the original cold war there was some trade and relations between the blocks. Maybe not for the people, but for the governments and the powerful at least. The interdependency is keeping things from collapsing, but we see in the last years that the new blocks are trying to cut this dependency. But at the end of the day, global politics is just the result of thousands of small decision by people with conflicting interests, who will cooperate for some time if it helps them all.

      Also from ideological point of view, China or Russia don't provide any solid and self-sufficient ideology or vision of better future as Soviet Union did. Economic growth of these countries was nurtured and empowered by the West, and politically China and Russia are way too corrupt and unripe compared to Western Democracies. Thus, to call it a new bipolar world is exaggerated. Most countries still see democracy as their ideal and only lean towards the East in some specific matters.

      Yeah china hasn’t been aggressive compared to any other world power since they came into power really. The only things that come to mind of them sending troops to other places: Korean War, invasion of Tibet and the sino-Vietnamese war. One of which also had American troops, and they have also invaded Vietnam. And China haven’t invaded Iraq, Libya and Afghanistan

      while China is being the biggest hypocrite. I cannot agree more. What China is portraying as a global peace maker, but in fact its policies is straight out imperialism while the US is at the very least keeping a façade of capitalism. While claim to be a non-aggressor to the world, it has been threatening Taiwan for decades. I guess your neutral perspective is more of a copium sadly.

    8:00 BRICS is not some rival to the West or NATO. To make a single currency or military alliance between such disparate far-flung countries would take a lot more unity and mutual co-operation than these states are capable of. The EU is geographically and culturally linked through their proximity to one another and even they haven't managed to spread the Euro to all members, or establish a formal alliance that isn't NATO. China and India are always skirmishing over their border, Russia's a global pariah, and South Africa is nearly a failed state that recently threatened to arrest Putin if he stopped by for the BRICS summit.
    NATO they ain't. And a mutual trade currency can't have garbage economies attached to it (South Africa, arguably Russia). Look what Greece did to the Eurozone.

    Do we have to constantly think about things with a "war" mindset?

From what I've seen, this "new cold war" language mainly comes from the US side.

      @@kingof206 I agree. I also pray welfare for everyone and humanity. I think governments and very rich people are destroying the earth. I don't like either of them at all. The problem with huge nations is that their government gets too powerful because they have too many resources. And they end up having very powerful weapons of mass destruction like atomic bombs. They also exploit people of other countries for their own benefit by stealing oil, water etc. Same with very rich people who exploit the environment and manipulate common people.
      I also like helping others. Just a few weeks ago, we organised an eye checkup and treatment camp for mostly old people who were poor and couldn't afford treatment for their eyes. Me, my friends and some other people I know, contributed money for it. We hired an eye specialist doctor to do checkup. Around 200 people visited for checkup. Some of them were fine, some got medicine and eye drops and around 10 of them had surgery because they couldn't see or had cataract. Now they could see and I am very happy for them. I also feed people from time to time and buy poor people some clothes for winters.

    AS an Indian, India currently has border issues with China (because of its aggressive expansionist policy), its occupation of Aksai Chin, and the BRI road that is going through "Pakistan Occupied Kashmir," to which India calls out a breach in its sovereignty (because of its claim on that part of land). It is very unlikely that China will be able to woo India onto its side. India has also rejected a common BRICS currency (though BRICS as a grouping has a lot of potential and can be a serious threat to the US and West). And Russia is just a shell of the former Soviet Union; though militarily strong but economically weak, it poses no substantial threat to the US and the West. And one of the key reasons why Russia places much importance on friendship with India is to keep China in check in Asia. The same is true for India; it cannot boycott or sanction Russia because it will push Russia closer toward China, making China more powerful. Therefore, China is going to have a bumpy road on its path to supremacy. It is the rise of a multi-polar world that is a threat to the USA and the West's supremacy, where other poles of power like India, though not powerful enough to substantially jeopardize the West's interests, if ignored and looked down on, would face severe losses and may lose their earlier much-enjoyed importance.

    America's decline has been overstated for the last 50 years. People forget that America's hegemony was not solely built on its military might and trade but also on its soft power. While some might look at America's political/cultural system as one in deep decline, it still offers way more to the individual than what is offered in Xi's China or Putin's Russian- personal freedom. And because America attracts all sorts of people/talent, it will continue to grow in ways that Putin or the CCP would never tolerate.

Unless these third world countries go down the path of North Korea, and strictly keep their people perpetually poor and uneducated.

Look at the "lie flat" and the "let it rot" movements inside China. These are all new sparks that the Chinese civilization never had before it came into contact with universal values.
