Global South

It’s a great pleasure to speak at the Multipolarity Forum. Why “multipolarity” is so important? Because its opposite “unipolarity” is immoral, unjust and outdated. Under the unipolarity, virtually everything, from dollars to trade to technologies to climate change, can be weaponized, and sanctions, missiles and color revolutions are the norms and used routinely at will, causing wars, havocs and untold human sufferings for millions upon millions of people, and this order has to be changed and will be changed.

The idea that History has an endpoint, as promoted by clueless neoconservatives in the unipolar 1990s, is flawed, as it is in an endless process of renewal. The recent official meeting between Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan al-Saud and Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian in Beijing marks a territory that was previously deemed unthinkable and which has undoubtedly caused grief for the War Inc. machine.
