Caracas, March 19, 2025 – “The world cannot remain unipolar; it must become multipolar. That is why a new social order is necessary,” stated international analyst Sergio Rodríguez Gelfenstein this Tuesday during the discussion series organized by the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America–Peoples’ Trade Treaty (ALBA-TCP) at the Bolivarian Military Academy of Venezuela.
During his presentation, he asserted that capitalism is in crisis and that the global issue at stake is the survival of the United States. “It may seem that they enjoy a high standard of living, but that is no longer the case. Things have changed because they imposed the dollar and printed it themselves, but now they lack backing since their economy has been devastated and they no longer have competition.”
The specialist stressed that the situation in the United States is so dire that “they are engaging in talks with [Vladimir] Putin (President of Russia), the world’s leading nuclear power.”
Rodríguez Gelfenstein noted that U.S. President Donald Trump is aware that the country’s economic indicators are in the red and “believes that the war in Ukraine is causing losses, which is why he is now engaging in dialogue with Russia.”
He warned that the crisis in the United States should not be a cause for celebration, as it behaves like a wounded beast, making “its blows target the closest regions, such as Latin America and the Caribbean.”
For the international analyst, it is crucial for the world to understand that multipolarity and unity serve as a shield against U.S. hegemony.
Furthermore, he explained that a number of organizations and alliances in Asia and Europe have shifted the global strategic and geopolitical axis, “changing everything because the United States is not involved—something that has not happened in the last five centuries.”
He affirmed that the axis of global politics is shifting from the Atlantic to the Eurasian East. He added that the alliance between China and Russia poses a threat to the United States, which is why the war in Ukraine is taking place.
He insisted that multipolarity must prevail, along with cooperation among nations to safeguard them from imperialist attacks.
