of power will shift from West to East. We are potentially watching a very dangerous and sudden shift in the geopolitical power structure. The balance of power that has existed for 80 years since World War II may be coming to an end. After the world fought two World Wars, the geopolitical power structure shifted toward the West and democracy. The East, with it autocratic forms of government, was defeated. The Tribulation Period will feature the global empire of the Antichrist in the Middle East.
\nIt appears that Russia and China see the weakness of the United States and Europe and are attempting to reestablish their global influence. A recent Gatestone Institute article highlighted this critical development.
\n\u201cAs Russia continues its troop build-up along the border with Ukraine, China has markedly increased its military activity near Taiwan. The twin geopolitical flashpoints, separated by 8,000 kilometers (5,000 miles), are raising concerns that Russia and China could coordinate or conduct concurrent military offensives that the United States and its allies may find difficult to stop.
\n\u201cA failure to deter Russia and China \u2014 deterrence, especially military pre-positioning near the area under threat, is the least costly way to avoid war \u2014 would deal a potentially crushing blow to the post-World War II liberal international order. That system, whose principles and norms \u2014 including adherence to the rule of law, respect for human rights and the promotion of liberal democracy, as well as preserving the sanctity of territorial sovereignty and existing boundaries \u2014 has regulated the conduct of international relations for nearly 80 years.\u201d
\n\u201cIf they succeed in dividing the world into zones of exclusive control, Russia and China would effectively collapse the Western global order and restore the unstable international system of great power rivalry that existed before \u2014 and ended with \u2014 the two world wars of the twentieth century.\u201d (www.gatestoneinstitute.org<\/a>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
