Narration of “Foreign Affairs”; The emergence of a new axis of the “New World Order” against the inefficient American hegemony

PNN – In an analysis, “Foreign Affairs” magazine examines the convergence of the four countries of Iran, China, Russia and North Korea and writes: These countries are creating a new axis of developments; The path of development that has fundamentally changed the geopolitical landscape of the world and takes steps in the direction of changing the rules of the ruling international system and ending American hegemony.

According to the report of Pakistan News Network, this American analytical base described the four countries of Iran, China, Russia and North Korea as the “axis of rebellion” against the current world order and wrote: The common goal of these four countries to weaken the United States and its leadership role has created a great solidarity among them.

This article added: The cooperation between these four countries (Iran, Russia, China, North Korea) was expanding before 2022 and the beginning of the war between Russia and Ukraine, but this conflict accelerated the deepening of their economic, military, political and technological relations. These four powers are increasingly identifying their common interests, aligning their rhetoric against the West and coordinating their military and diplomatic activities accordingly. This group is not an exclusive bloc, but a collection of states dissatisfied with the current order that have converged on a common goal of subverting the principles, rules and institutions that underpin the ruling international system. When these four countries work together, their actions are far more effective than their unilateral efforts. These countries increase each other’s military capabilities and reduce the effectiveness of US foreign policy tools, including sanctions. On the other hand, this cooperation has hindered the ability of Washington and its allies to implement international laws. The collective goal of this axis is to create an alternative to the current order dominated by the United States.

Foreign Affairs wrote in another part of this report: The increasing cooperation between China, Iran, North Korea and Russia is due to their common opposition to the world order dominated by the West; A conflict rooted in the belief that the current order system does not give them the status or freedom of action they deserve. Each of these countries claims a sphere of influence: China claims Taiwan and the South China Sea, Iran claims influence over the “axis of resistance” (such as Iraq, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen), North Korea claims leadership over the entire Korean peninsula; And Russia, they want to influence the “near abroad” (which, in the Kremlin’s view, at least includes the countries that made up its historical empire). Each of these four countries in some way consider the United States to be the main obstacle to their activities in these spheres of influence and want to reduce Washington’s presence in these spheres. Although they may reach temporary agreements with the United States, they do not believe that the West will accept their rise (or return) to power on the world stage. They oppose foreign interference in their domestic affairs, the expansion of US alliances, the deployment of US nuclear weapons abroad, and the use of coercive sanctions.

This article added: The axis of China, Iran, North Korea and Russia does not need a coherent plan to disrupt the existing system and provide an alternative international order. The common opposition of these countries to the main principles of the current order and their determination to bring about change is a powerful basis for the joint action of this axis. On the other hand, the conflicting positions of these countries are not so deep that it can destroy their common ties with the western world.

Foreign Affairs wrote in another part of its report: So far, the most cooperation between China, Iran, North Korea and Russia has been bilateral. Trilateral and quadrilateral action among them can increase the ability of this axis to disrupt the current order. Countries such as Belarus, Cuba, Eritrea, Nicaragua, and Venezuela—all fighting against the Western-dominated system led by the United States—could begin to cooperate more closely with this axis. If the number of countries supported by this group increases and the issue of coordination between them increases, the United States and its allies will have a more difficult task to defend the current known order.

Pointing out that neither the West nor this axis will become completely distinct political, military and economic blocks, this article emphasized: each of these coalitions will compete for influence around the world and try to force important countries to Lean to your side. Among them, six “global swing states” including Brazil, India, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa and Turkey are of special importance. These countries are moderate powers that have a significant collective geopolitical weight for their political tendencies in the direction of changing the future direction of the international order, and it can be expected that these six countries will also follow economic, diplomatic, military and technological relations based on the outbreak.

At the end, Foreign affairs stressed that it is impossible to prevent the emergence of this new axis.
