RE-POST - "Putin: The West cannot offer the world its own model of the future" https://youtu.be/iIBhcgRUIlE "Russian President Vladimir Putin took part in the plenary session of the Strong Ideas for the New Times forum. Significant changes are coming in world history. And the impetus for this was a special military operation of Russia in Ukraine. Theses: The model of total domination of the so-called Golden Billion is unfair. Well, why should this Golden billion of the entire population of the planet dominate everyone, impose its own rules of conduct based on the illusion of exclusivity? The West simply cannot offer the world its own model of the future. Therefore, even today the elites of this Golden billion are terribly afraid that other centers of world development may present their own development options. But no matter how much the Western and so-called supranational elites strive to preserve the existing order of things, a new era is coming, a new stage in world history." - - Russian News
