@insideoverita Ricordo che gli Usa sono un paese di assimilazione e non di integrazione, multirazziale ma non multiculturale. Tutte le potenze tendono ad assimilare....e gli Usa sono la prima potenza al mondo.
NEW | The United States is increasingly involved in direct competition with Russia in Africa as the United States seeks to cultivate influence with Russian-aligned, authoritarian regimes in Africa as part of its transactional approach to the continent.
These African states have shown openness to US engagement as part of efforts to diversify their partnerships but are ultimately seeking to balance ties among several countries. ⬇️🧵
For the Arab world this is the greatest defeat of the Revolutionary Islamic Republic:
Vance, Witkoff, and Kushner are negotiating with IRGC revolutionaries who operate within an eschatological system where the end of times guarantees their victory, and their belief itself is the proof they can’t lose. But IRGC’s visible failures are beginning to show how they contradict their own doctrine, they are being pushed to confront the limits of their beliefs.

@George_Friedman Gli stati europei hanno scambiato la politica interna per politica internazionale....la grande strategia è preclusa ai satelliti dell'impero americano. Non saperlo, ad alti livelli, fa pensare a una forma di ignoranza o di presunzione che si possa fare ciò che si vuole.
The internal politics of European nations and those of the United States differ, but at the same time, we have reached a point where NATO itself, as a functional alliance, is at least at risk and possibly nearing its end. Domestic politics will determine part of this, but both sides have stated that even if the institution might survive, the alliance itself, which is its spirit, is in mortal danger.

China purchased 1.38m bpd of Iranian oil last year, on average. This campaign will hurt their access to discounted shorthaul barrels, and therefore their energy security.
