Trump’s America in the New World Order

автор: ValeryMorozov Опубликовано 2024/11/24

Part 1

The return of Donald Trump to the White House with a fundamentally new team, has become an event comparable in scale and depth of consequences to Mikhail Gorbachev’s rise to power in the USSR exactly 40 years ago. Although these two events are fundamentally different in many ways, just as the USSR and the USA, which opposed each other, were different in their socio-economic and state systems, there is nevertheless much that unites these two events.

The possible consequences of Trump’s return to power for the United States and the world are underestimated by both Trump’s opponents and his supporters. Perhaps Trump himself does not understand the extent of his influence, the full depth of changes in the world that he is bringing and, with a high probability, will bring both to the United States and to the system of relations in the world.

Interview with Sir Malcolm Rifkind on North Korea, part 1

VM: – Soon, the leaders of the US, South Korea, China, Russia and Japan will meet in Vietnam at Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Forum and North Korea will be in the centre of the talks. Korean Peninsula has become the hottest and the most dangerous region in the world. Here, the world has come as close to a nuclear war, as nowhere else. The system of nuclear non-proliferation is collapsing. The crisis in US – North Korea relations threatens lives of millions of people. The US President Donald Trump threatened North Korean leader Kim Jong-un with aircraft-career group and nuclear submarines, which are considered weapons of last reserve… What do you think about the policy of the present US Administration? What will happen, if Kim Jong-un turned to be “tough guy” and will not succumb under the US threats?

Interview with Malcolm Rifkind, part 4 On US attack on Syria, meeting Tillerson – Lavrov and terrorist threat from Central Asia

автор: ValeryMorozov Опубликовано 2017/04/19

VM: In recent days, we faced dramatic events: the terrorist attacks in St. Petersburg and Stockholm, the US strike in Syria.

Let us start with the US attack with cruise missiles on the Syrian airbase. This attack, according to Washington, was taken as a response to the use of the chemical weapon by the Syrian air force against the anti-government forces.

The Russian and the Syrian governments reject the possibility that Assad regime was behind the chemical attack. The UN representatives on the ground are not sure what gas was used and who was to be blamed. The Turkish government has agreed to carry out investigation three days after the US attack and, as it seems, under pressure from Moscow. As a result of his negotiations in Moscow with Lavrov and Putin, Tillerson also agreed to carry out impartial investigation and, as I understand, that will be discussed in Geneva at a meeting between Russian, UN and US representatives.

Interview with Malcolm Rifkind, part 3, On Brexit, Global War Threat and on Litvinenko case

автор: ValeryMorozov Опубликовано 2017/04/07

VM: – Now, let us come to Brexit.

 

MR: – Yes.

 

VM: – Brexit, the election of Trump, growing popularity of right parties in Europe. Do these events have the same reasons, or they are the results of different trends?

 

MR: – They have some things in common, but, inevitably, each country is different. In some cases it is populism. But again I come back to the point: the United Kingdom is in a unique situation. Many countries are Eurosceptic – in Poland, in France, in Netherlands. But because of their history they see being the European Union as reinforcing their democracy and their rule of law. And if I was from these countries I would cheer on EU. So they put up with the things that irritate them in the EU but they see it as overriding benefit from being in that structure.

Interview with Sir Malcolm Rifkind, part 2. On US-Russia and US-EU relations, on Ukraine’s independence, NATO and regional superpowers

автор: ValeryMorozov Опубликовано 2017/04/03

VM: – Now, we have come to the US – Russia relations and US – EU relations. What do you think, how Trump policy will change the US – Russian and US – EU relations?

 

MR: – I think, in some respect, in terms of Russia relations, Trump’s arrival might help. Let me put forward the scenario, but just as an illustration, I’m sorry to come back to Ukraine, but it’s relevant, it’s the best example.

VM: – As an illustration…

 

MR: – Russia, I suspect, would like to resolve this crisis in its relationship with the rest of the world. It’s not helping Russia, that crisis and the sanctions, political difficulties, and these people in the West would also like to see progress. When you have problems of that kind, they require compromises; they require both sides to make important concessions.
