The world is changing not for the better, and new tension spots appear, the leader of the Essence of Time movement, philosopher, political scientist and theater director Sergey Kurginyan said on December 28 on the program To the Point on the BelTA Belarusian TV channel.
One of the tension spots, according to the political scientist, is due to the Yemeni Houthis rebels in the Red Sea, who have blocked an important logistic line. In response, an anti-pirate coalition was established, but all the ships now go around Africa, he explained.
“Now someone will be hunting them [the ships] there, in the Strait of Ormuz or elsewhere,” the analyst explained.
Another concern in that former chief of The New York Times has started saying that Japan should receive nuclear weapons. Kurginyan explained that raising China will push the US to strengthen Japan and to revive its militarist spirit.
If Japan gets nuclear weapons, Germany will get it, too, the philosopher noted.
“The largest process, which the US fears but will allow to take place, is an ultimate revision of the outcome of World War Two. This is the most terrible process for us as well as for Belarus,” the political scientist noted.
Kurginyan explained that if Germany strengthens, then Germany, but not Poland, will become the key factor in NATO’s confrontation with Russia. According to the political scientist, the Poles cannot withstand high pressure, “sand is a bad replacement to oats.”
Another threat can emerge at Russia’s northern borders. Therefore, Finland’s and Sweden’s admission to NATO is not something insignificant, the analyst explained.
“Now it is all quiet at the Arctic direction, but the Baltic region is moving to an absolutely new situation, and the Arctic region is also moving to a new situation. All these troubles around the Suez Canal and the Bab el Mandeb Strait mean that the Northern Sea Route is a new attractive point, and conflicts will take place there, too,” Kurginyan stressed.
Turkey remains to be quite a dangerous conflict site, which “maintains an unstable anti-Russian stance,” the political scientist explained.
“It [Turkey] simulates a pro-Russian policy while doing many anti-Russian things, but it does not go on the war-path against Russia, thank God! Because in the current situation we would not withstand that. Also, it is still a NATO state etc.,” Kurginyan noted.
“We should pay attention to the Japan-Turkey ties, to the slowly raising problems in the relations between Iran and Turkey, to the North Caucasus that is heating up, even if very slowly (I mean ‘Lezgistan’ and other things), and to the fact that the enemy is on alert,” the leader of the Essence of Time movement concluded.
