Tishwash: American newspaper: The United Nations is “collapsing” and three countries lead a move to form a “new world order”
The American newspaper The Cradle revealed, in an analysis published today, Friday (May 3, 2024), the existence of what it described as “major movements” being undertaken by three countries to “secure the future of the world” with the imminent expected collapse of the United Nations system as a result of the influence exercised by the United States. On the United Nations and the subsequent “destruction” that befell the world.
The newspaper said, according to what “Baghdad Today” translated, that China, Iran and Russia are now making actual and unprecedented moves to create a “new world order” based on the BRICS economic system, as an alternative to the American-Western SWIFT system, with the aim of securing the world from the possible collapse of the economic system as a result of... “Corruption” of the United Nations and the influence of the United States on its decisions.
She continued, "Russia hosted UNRWA and provided it with economic support to continue funding humanitarian efforts in Palestine after attempts by Israel and America to stop its funding. China and Iran also followed Russia's steps by hosting Palestinian parties in ongoing efforts to unify them towards establishing an official Palestinian state."
The newspaper confirmed that the old world order is now “collapsing” under “the weight of the corruption of the United Nations and the United States’ complete control over its decisions without concern for the rest of the world’s countries, including the continued support and protection of the Israeli regime, which prompted the three countries to move to establish a new system that protects the world from regimes and leaders.” Genocide and their control,” according to her description.
The United States, according to the newspaper’s description, is “now losing” its influence to China, which is now “questioning the United States and its ability publicly through the international level, such as questioning it regarding its insistence on preventing the establishment of a Palestinian state and its silence regarding the genocide committed publicly by Israel, in addition to the terrorist attack on Nord Stream transmission line in Europe.
The American Cradle announced that the BRICS system will soon become the “new United Nations” in the world, which will make the United States and its Western allies lose control over the current international system that relies on the United Nations, explaining, “What is also happening is that China, after officially condemning the Israeli attack on the Iranian embassy in... Damascus has become close to Tehran following the rapprochement that took place last year with Moscow, as the three countries apparently agreed on an alliance formula based on providing mutual benefit by providing each other’s needs to secure the future of the world away from the United Nations and its corruption.
The American newspaper also announced an expected visit by Russian President Vladimir Putin to the Chinese capital, Beijing, next month, where an agreement will be made to activate “the new world order on which the idea of the BRICS economic system was based,” where the two parties will agree with Iran on a “unified position” on establishing... “A new global security order is based on the position towards the Palestinian issue and the genocide committed by Israel, which for the West, which supports Israel in any case, is still something far from being described as genocide,” she said.
The newspaper also pointed out that the United States, which had previously issued “threats of a tsunami wave of sanctions” against China if it implemented its idea to establish a new global security system based on the BRICS economic system as an alternative to the United Nations, is now facing a union between the three major countries and their “civilizations.”
The ancient countries and their enormous economic and industrial capabilities,” and the countries of Asia and the Global South, something that realistically threatens, as Washington realizes, its “hegemony” at the international level through the entirely Western-oriented United Nations.
The analysis issued by the newspaper expected that the three countries would succeed in establishing their new world order with the imminent collapse of the SWIFT economic system and the loss of the United Nations’ credibility before the countries of the world after its “complete submission” to the desires of the Americans and Israel and the decisions of the “genocidal regimes,” in reference to the major Western countries and their continued support. For Israel, it is expected that by the end of this year the world will witness the emergence of a “new United Nations” whose center of power will be in the East and South of the world, instead of in the West. link
