This international policy will be aimed at organizing a technological breakthrough for humanity. To achieve this, it is necessary to unite most of the planet's resources. Achieving this through the dominance of a single ideology has failed. The previous globalization project, based on the ideology of liberal democracies, has exhausted its potential. Therefore, a new principle will be used to unite humanity: fewer ideologies and more economic benefit. In other words, differences in ideologies are not an obstacle to economic cooperation.
That this is true has already been proven by the economic cooperation between China and the United States. Communist China is one of the main economic partners of the capitalist United States.(8) America, while previously promoting globalization based on the ideology of liberal democracies, simultaneously collaborated with the communists. In this way, US policymakers not only increased the economic power of their own state but also created a backup plan. Now, after the failure of globalization, this backup plan has become the primary one. Without abandoning their plans to lead humanity in technological advancement, American policymakers have decided to attract as many players as possible to implement their plans. This is being done to maximize the US leadership position and eliminate alternative projects for the unification of humanity.
Even countries that previously had not participated in the project due to ideological differences will be drawn into the technological leap. Chief among these countries is Russia. US-Russian economic relations are the most striking example of the pernicious impact of ideology on the economy.
In terms of GDP, Russia is in 11th place in the world.(9) And Russia has a common maritime border with the US in the Bering Strait. The width of this strait is 51 miles at its narrowest point. (10) This makes it possible to build a land corridor in the form of a bridge or tunnel. And this is great for trade.
But the trade between the US and Russia is almost non-existent. In 2024, the countries sold each other goods worth $3.5 billion.(11) The US has almost the same trade turnover with Kazakhstan.(12) However, Kazakhstan is ranked 51st in the world in terms of GDP(9) and does not have a common border with the US.
How big the trade turnover with Russia can be is suggested by the data on the US trade with Canada and Mexico. These countries are comparable in terms of GDP with Russia and also have a common border with the US. Canada is in 10th place in terms of GDP in the world.(9) And the trade turnover of the US and Canada is $762.1 billion.(13) Mexico is in 12th place in terms of GDP in the world.(9) And the trade turnover of Mexico and the US is $839.9 billion.(14) The trade turnover between Russia and the US can be slightly less than the trade turnover between the EU and the US. This value is $975.9 billion.(15)
The Ukrainian war in the context of events
The war in Ukraine is a clear example of how political ideology is used for political crimes. The crime is that voters in many countries were misled about the events unfolding in Ukraine. Thanks to this deception, many voters, especially Ukrainian and Russian, were killed. These people killed each other. And the lives of even more people were ruined and these people suffered material losses.
In committing this political crime, each side in the conflict created and used its own version of events. And these versions are contradictory. However, the truth, as always, lies somewhere in the middle between the European and Russian versions of events. This truth is unpleasant for both sides in the conflict and the entire international community. This truth is as follows.
The Europeans were the first to invade Ukrainian territory. This European invasion was carefully disguised as the will of the Ukrainian people. This invasion was called "Euromaidan." Although Ukrainian law does not permit the overthrow of the current government by a crowd gathered in the square, the Europeans did so. And the international community agreed with this violation of Ukrainian law. The Russians were the second to invade Ukrainian territory, annexing Crimea and part of eastern Ukraine. This, too, was prohibited by Ukrainian law. The Russian invasion was also disguised as the will of the Ukrainian people. Referenda were held for this purpose.
Although the Russian invasion was as much a crime as the European invasion, most liberal democracies disagreed with Russia's actions but agreed with the EU's. At the same time, liberal democracies did not actively oppose Russia's invasion. This gave liberal democracies room to maneuver in the event of an unfavorable future development for the EU.
As a result, Ukraine lost its independence in 2014. Then, the Ukrainian state was completely occupied by European and Russian invaders. This occurred due to the inaction of the international community, which saw its own advantage in this.
The war that began in Ukraine in 2014 is a war between European and Russian occupiers. Both occupation regimes are using Ukraine's territory and human resources for the war. However, there is a difference between the occupiers. The Russians are using their own human resources to a greater extent. This means that the fighting is primarily carried out by citizens of Russia and Russia's ally, North Korea. The European occupiers, however, are using exclusively Ukrainian human resources for the war. This means that the fighting is being carried out by Euro-collaborators from among Ukrainian citizens.
Whoever wins this war, the losers will be those who support Ukrainian independence. Therefore, in the third year of the war, the majority of Ukrainian citizens have distanced themselves from the events. This silent majority, politically voiceless, rightly decided that the best solution is to end the war. It doesn't matter who wins. The main thing is that the war ends.
The disregard of the war by most of Ukrainian society led to the defeat of the European occupiers in Ukraine. This reduced the Europeans' ability to use Ukrainian human resources for the war against Russia. European politicians, however, were unwilling to involve EU citizens in the fighting to achieve victory. Putin, relying on his own human resources, becomes the clear winner of the war.
