Multipolarity was triggered by the 2003 US invasion of Iraq

Twenty years after the unlawful and destabilizing US-led invasion of Iraq, Washington must face the ultimate consequence of that war: UNSC powers China and Russia laying the foundation for a genuine, UN Charter-based system of multipolarism.

On the night of 19-20 March, 2003, the US air force began bombing the Iraqi capital, Baghdad. The EU and NATO were deeply divided on whether to join the aggression: While newer NATO members from Central and Eastern Europe were in favor of the war, European heavyweights Paris and Berlin opposed it.

Bulgaria Refuses To Send Soviet-Era Fighter Jets And Tanks To Ukraine

With its stockpile of Soviet-era weapons, Bulgaria, home to a thriving arms industry, could be a key ally of Ukraine, which is trained on and equipped with such arms, in its war against invading Russian forces.

But with parliament now dissolved ahead of elections on April 2, the fifth snap poll in two years amid political uncertainty, the caretaking government is in no mood to provide lethal aid to Kyiv, appointed as it was by President Rumen Radev, who is known for his pro-Kremlin leanings.

La limite de la patience russe

L’histoire du Tribunal de La Haye est symbolique. La Russie ne s’est jamais interrogée sur la nature de cette institution. En réalité, elle fait partie de la mise en œuvre du gouvernement mondial, un système politique supranational créé au-dessus des États-nations qui sont invités à céder une partie de leur souveraineté à cette structure. Cela inclut la Cour européenne des droits de l’homme et l’UE elle-même, mais aussi la Banque mondiale, le Fonds monétaire international, l’OMS, etc. La Société des Nations, puis l’ONU, ont été conçues comme une étape préparatoire à l’établissement d’un gouvernement mondial.

NATO’s Black Sea Frontier Is The Southern Shore Of The Caspian – Analysis

Russia’s large-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 has led to a renewed focus on the geopolitical importance of the Black Sea. What the North Atlantic Treaty Organization has overlooked is Russia’s use—often in coordination with Iran—of the Caspian Sea to advance its war aims in Ukraine. The Caspian Sea offers Russia a strategic depth to strike targets far afield in a relatively safe manner, is currently the only way for Russia to reinforce its Black Sea Fleet, and serves as a transport conduit allowing Iran to deliver military assistance to Russia for use against Ukraine.
