Putin: “The unipolar era is over” and this change is “irreversible”

247 – Russian President Vladimir Putin began his speech at the plenary session of the International Economic Forum in St. Petersburg by saying that “the era of the unipolar world is over” and that this change is “part of history” and “irreversible.”

“It is not possible to avoid (the end of the unipolar system), but it is over, despite all attempts to preserve it anyway. It is only natural because changes are natural in history,” Putin said. “It is not hard to see that in the past decade we have had new powerful centers, each of which is developing its own political systems, civil societies and development models. They have the right to protect these models and sovereign interests. We are talking about something objective, about changing tectonics in geopolitics, the global economy and technology and international relations system. “These changes are fundamental and cannot be changed.”

Putin went on to criticize the United States, which, according to him, plays the role of “the world’s policeman.” “They pretend not to realize that there are other powerful centers in the world,” he added, adding that “attempts to destroy the Russian economy were unsuccessful.”
