US FlagMOSCOW, Mar 13The era of US «unipolar dominance» is over, so the country needs a «sober, national interest-oriented» foreign policy, according to an article in The American Spectator by Josh Hammer. «undeniable American economic, diplomatic, military and geopolitical superiority» on the world stage. However, with the return of great power rivalry, that unipolar era has in every sense come to an end, he writes.The United States warned of a «catastrophic failure» of the country's leadershipAccording to him, the first signs of the collapse of the unipolar world appeared on the ruins of «inglorious wars for the» moralizing «attempts of the United States to change foreign regimes.» «The ambitious and arrogant militaristic adventures of the right-wing neo-conservative elements (primarily in Afghanistan and Iraq) and our homegrown leftists in power (primarily in Libya) who were hiding behind humanitarian considerations, the failures of which were already obvious at least a decade ago, but which, however, were driven to last year's disastrous withdrawal of our troops from Afghanistan, cost the American people dearly,” Hammer points out. However, in his opinion, more important, perhaps, was the historical symbolism hidden in them: «America is not omnipotent.» decades of inflation, skyrocketing out-of-wedlock births, a «leaky» southern frontier, rising rates of homicide and violent crime, and the metastasis of overtly racist «critical race theory» and the deeply divisive tenets of current «gender ideology,» he said. encourage creativity and out-of-the-box statesmanship by American politicians, he continues. According to Hammer, US «statesmanship» should be aimed at creating a regional alliance to contain China. At the same time, in his opinion, after the completion of the Russian special operation in Ukraine, “it would be quite reasonable to try to establish long-term relations with Russia.” “Effective state policy requires recognizing the world as it is, and not inventing how it could or should would be. And this means recognition of the end of the unipolar era. Never before has a sober, nationally oriented, realistic American foreign policy mattered more to our country,» the author concludes. deputies of the State Duma signed decrees recognizing the sovereignty of the LPR and the DPR. Early on the morning of February 24, Russia launched a military special operation to demilitarize Ukraine. Putin called its goal «the protection of people who have been subjected to abuse, genocide by the Kiev regime for eight years.» According to the Ministry of Defense, the Armed Forces strike only at military infrastructure and Ukrainian troops. ;>
