In the The New Eurasian Century, demographics specialist, Joel Kotkin, says that a China-Russia-Germany is an emerging world order, one which clearly threatens USA hegemony.
In The Crisis in Ukraine Is Not About Ukraine. It's About Germany., writer Mike Whitney writes about the fear of Nord Stream 2 creating the Eurasian new world order that Kotkin sees as well.
"In a world where Germany and Russia are friends and trading partners, there is no need for US military bases, no need for expensive US-made weapons and missile systems, and no need for NATO. There’s also no need to transact energy deals in US Dollars or to stockpile US Treasuries to balance accounts.
Transactions between business partners can be conducted in their own currencies which is bound to precipitate a sharp decline in the value of the dollar and a dramatic shift in economic power. This is why the Biden administration opposes Nord Stream.
It’s not just a pipeline, it’s a window into the future; a future in which Europe and Asia are drawn closer together into a massive free trade zone that increases their mutual power and prosperity while leaving the US on the outside looking in."
Both Kotkin's and Whitney's articles are worth your time. You will learn why Joe Biden is trying to start a war with Russia by goading the Ukrainians into war with the Russians.
