“Vladimir Putin presented a six-point plan for his “new world order”, which, among other things, involves abandoning security blocs”, — write: www.radiosvoboda.org
Putin presented a plan for his “new world order” of six points, which includes: the openness of states to interact with each other; lack of universal dogmas; taking into account the views of all countries when making global decisions; rejection of security blocs that unite groups of states; “justice for all”, including the eradication of xenophobia and intolerance; and “sovereign equality” of all states.
Analysts note that Putin’s proposal ignores the Kremlin’s ongoing efforts to strengthen its power and influence in neighboring countries, including efforts to destabilize Moldova and Georgia; flirting with a group of anti-Western states such as North Korea, the People’s Republic of China (PRC), and Iran; as well as waging an illegal and unprovoked war of aggression in Ukraine.

“The Kremlin likely seeks to use this rhetoric to divert attention from Russia’s real efforts to undermine pro-Western governments and expand its influence on the international stage, and to promote the expansion of BRICS and the so-called ‘new Eurasian security architecture’ that the Kremlin has created in opposition to NATO “, the report says.
In September, the Russian government developed a list of countries in which, according to the Russian authorities, “destructive attitudes that contradict Russian spiritual and moral values are being imposed on residents.” The list includes the USA and Canada, all the countries of the European Union and many European countries that are not members of the EU, including Great Britain, Switzerland and Norway. In total, we are talking about 47 states – almost all of them were previously included in Russia among the so-called unfriendly countries.
ISW analysts believe that Russia’s inclusion of 47 countries in the list of those “imposing destructive attitudes that contradict Russian spiritual and moral values” emphasizes that the Kremlin is reviving Soviet-era tactics and thinking that define a clear ideological division in the world.
