The West's antiquated unipolar world collides with the East's vision of a mulipolar future.
In Reuters' 2007 article, "Putin says Russia threatened by 'Unipolar World'," Russian President Vladimir Putin stated:
"Some people are constantly insisting on the necessity to divide up our country and are trying to spread this theory."
Reuters would also quote President Putin as saying:
"There are those who would like to build a unipolar world, who would themselves like to rule all of humanity."
While Reuters then attempted to spin
the comments as Russian paranoia, in the wake of recent events in
Ukraine, the timelessness and accuracy of President Putin's assessment
years ago are apparent.
Setting the Board
For years the West has been
cultivating a proxy political machine inside of Ukraine for the purpose
of peeling the nation away from its historical and socioeconomic ties to
Russia. The deep relationship between Western corporate-financier
interests on Wall Street and in London and the opposition in Ukraine are
best summarized in PR Weeks "Analysis: PR gets trodden underfoot as sands shift in Ukraine." In the article, the involvement of some of the most notorious corporate lobbying firms on Earth, including Bell Pottinger and the Podesta Group, are
revealed to have been involved in Ukraine's internal affairs since the
so-called "Orange Revolution" in 2004 - a coup admittedly orchestrated
by the West and in particular the US government.
