For decades, Moscow and neighboring ally Beijing, which is projected to overtake Washington as the world"s largest economy by 2035, according to Goldman Sachs, have decried America's unipolarity and universality.
Both bemoan the traits as a threat to their "cultural civilizations," as well as political ideology.
With the social movement that emerged victoriously following the killing in the U.S. of a black man George Floyd, by a white police officer in May 2020, the nativist neighbors who concurrently battled protests and rallies in their respective cities and domains in 2019-2020, were unnerved to exigent action.
The Antifa-led Black Lives Matter ( BLM). protests that dramatically swept across both sides of the Atlantic, and threatened to usurp millennia-old European history, on one hand, enthralling thousands of converts in strategic " Kremlin backyards" such as Kazakhstan and Lithuania together with Soviet satellite the Czech Republic, is seen as an inevitable alleyway to clinching and dominating, the fiercely contested and invaluable New World Order.
Soon after a face-to-face summit with U.S. President Joe Biden in Geneva in 2021, Vladimir Putin speaking to reporters, ironically said he felt sympathy for America following "disorder, destruction, violation of the law among other criminal activities during BLM protests."
The Russian strongman on one hand, compared the movement , which won its biggest political trophy when the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act of 2021, passed the Democratic-controlled House of Representatives; to foreign entities in his country, and vowed to contain such a movement on Russian territory.
Accordingly, Putin's Kremlin which has been accused of interfering in U.S. domestic politics, perceives Washington's institutions ineluctably weakened in several ways, the majority cause celebre.
While placing the U.S. in a " demographics quandary," one stark instance is an existential issue, a subject of scholarly interest even beyond the Western academia.
Racial transformation in the United States as a result of the Immigration Act of 1965, also known as Hart- Celler and spreading faster in the European Union and NATO member countries, is vastly replacing adventurous, establishment and militarily-aligned Americans, as well as their cultural and ideological influence.
With a population of 46,9 million, according to the Bureau of the Census, descendants of the Atlantic slavery and immigrant counterparts from Sub-Saharan Africa, together with visible minorities of revolutionary Hart-Celler, while constituting an ascendant and important electorate; have become emotionally self-conscious and are of the belief that the imminent reinvention of the country, should be in accordance with their historical grievances and philosophy.
Just like the Ottoman Empire at the beginning of the Crimean War, a transcending multiethnic and multinational United States astride an irreversible ideological polarization, and the pressures of internationalism, will see its hegemonical verdict and that of the West in general, from the shores of the historic and strategic Black Sea.
In 1854, an Ottoman breakaway Greece, which had promised neutrality in the Crimean War, was enjoying self-government.
Among those that had been assured considerable autonomy and practical independence by the Ottomans, were the Principalities of Moldavia and Wallachia ( now Romania), in addition to Serbians and Montenegrin's.
These rather conciliatory measures however, had ambiguously aroused ethnic and racial emotions among subject nationalities.
