The view from Moscow: Russian philosopher Alexander Dugin on Trump, Ukraine, Russia and globalism

G. Greenwald: Professor, thanks so much for taking the time to talk to me. It's great to see you. I want to start with the change in what seems like the climate and certainly in Washington, in the United States, where there's a great deal of expectation that with a new president, one who specifically is vowing that he wants to see an end to the war between Russia and Ukraine and there's a lot of expectation that that is going to happen. I think the same is true in Western European capitals, for better or for worse. Some people are happy, some people are not. What is the expectation here in Moscow in terms of that likelihood? 

 

Zelensky’s Behavior in the White House & the West’s Schism

The behavior of Volodymyr Zelensky during his meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump is indicative of a growing divide within the collective West, splitting it into two opposing poles: those who seek an end to the Ukrainian conflict and those who wish to prolong it, said Russian philosopher, political scientist, and sociologist Alexander Dugin.

Trump and the UN Exit: A New Global Blueprint

The initiative by Republican congressmen for the USA to exit the United Nations is not surprising. The UN has long ceased to correspond to the realities of international politics. It is a phantom pain: the structure of the United Nations reflects the balance of power that emerged after World War Two, in which there were two antagonistic blocks and the Non-Aligned Movement.

Naturally, the issues they discussed pertained to the global order. It is not fitting for the leaders of two great powers to speak of minor matters without first defining new parameters for the world order.

 

Tribunal over Liberalism

In an instant, following Trump's rapid reforms, where he declared that there are only two genders—male and female—a monstrous picture unfolded before the eyes of Americans and the entire world. Millions of those who had been convinced by the previously ruling liberals to change their gender or identify as non-existent genders suddenly found themselves transformed from "progressive", "forward-thinking" citizens into cripples, invalids. Just moments before, they had been inculcated with the idea that gender diversification, including castration, mutilation, and the psychological breakdown of young children, were signs of "the most adequate social behavior".

USAID Destroyed: Trump and Musk’s Conservative Revolution Continues

The liquidation of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is an event whose significance can hardly be overstated. When the Soviet Union abolished the Comintern (Third International) and later the Cominform, structures that advocated the ideological interests of the USSR on a global scale, it marked the beginning of the end for the international Soviet system.
