The fate of arms has decided. The moment of truth has spoken. The Ukrainian counter-offensive has failed miserably. NATO’s considerable armaments were useless. The battlefield is littered with corpses. All for nothing. The territories that joined the Russian Federation by referendum will remain Russian. This “checkmate” not only marks the end of Ukraine as we have known it, but of Western domination that had staked its future on its lies. The multipolar world may be born this summer at several international summits. A new way of thinking in which might no longer makes right.
