Some takes from @balajis Srinivasan’s interview with @Peter McCormack "The collapse of the west”: There is no long-term strategic thinking: America thinks it does not have to make any sacrifice, just push a button at policy level (tariffs) and everything will be fine again. It alienates friendly countries and pushes them towards China”. This is how the US has favored the alliance between China and Russia. Trump’s narrative that the US was “robbed” is false. To the contrary , the US has been the profiteer of its business model “global inflation and global taxation”. Trump continues the self defeating policy which has brought the US to this point. Import substitution needs to be planned strategically and carefully. Below some visual excerpts from my #bitcoindollar book which confirm Balaji’s geopolitical views on the collapse of the West. #bitcoin #russia #china #india #bitcoindollar #geopolitics

Very interesting article by Dmitri Trenin, a Russian political analyst, about the crumbling of the world order established after World War II. The key point is about the danger of the increasingly weak nuclear deterrence perception in the West.

Dmitry Trenin: Why the next world order will be armed with nukes

How the West’s recklessness is testing Moscow’s nuclear patience

* Trenin warns that Western powers' disregard for nuclear deterrence and their aggressive actions towards Russia are playing with fire, pushing Russia to consider drastic measures, such as conventional strikes against NATO nations like France, UK, and Germany, or even a demonstrative tactical nuclear strike to reestablish deterrence and demonstrate its capabilities. I add that my #bitcoindollar book gives a very good account of the changing global order towards multipolarity and the contructive albeit different role that the USA could have played in stabilizing existing conflicts by introducing a new paradigmatic shift towards a more peaceful future for humanity by adopting the #bitcoindollar system. Unfortunately President Trump' s Administration policies are NOT going in the direction that I hoped for in my book. #bitcoin #russia #war
