The Russian invasion of Ukraine and Putin’s daring to wage a war of this magnitude, with an ally of the West, is nothing but a new indication of the important transformation the world is witnessing, which is the retreat and decline of the United States at the international level, and the Russian invasion that we are witnessing on Ukrainian lands is only one of the results of this retreat America and the great failure on the international scene.

Today, the world is witnessing an important and major transformation, as the American empire is no longer the only player in the international arena, nor is it the sole controller of the world, while the major competing and ambitious powers have begun to realize this and replace the United States, wherever it has retreated and retreated, and of course this does not mean expecting a collapse Washington, but rather the decline of its international hegemony, and the emergence of other poles playing on the international scene, sharing benefits and jostling for interests with the Americans.

What is happening in the world is that the United States has been in a state of retreat and decline, for more than ten years, and there are many evidence, events and manifestations that confirm that the Americans are no longer the only and largest player in the world as they were in the aftermath of the end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet Union, and that their influence in The international arena is declining, and many of their foreign projects are facing failure. The Americans left Iraq in 2011 after their project there failed, and they suffered great losses, as they entered Iraq in 2003 and the public debt of the United States is about 5.1 trillion dollars, while they left there and this number exceeded 17 trillion, but most importantly, their political project It failed and soon Iraq became a playground for Iran, which had long been an adversary to the Americans in this region.

And between two failed experiences in Iraq and Afghanistan, the American role was absent from many crises in the world and the Arab region. In Syria, Moscow intervened and Washington was absent, as well as in Libya and other places, as Russia, Turkey and Iran rushed to fill the voids left by the American absence, and played in the crises that arose In light of the American withdrawal in the international arena. The Russian-Ukrainian war is one of the outcomes of the American retreat that tempted Russia to begin expansion and to play a greater role in the international arena, and this necessarily means that the “unipolar” era is heading to an end, and that the world is heading to become “multipolar,” albeit to a lesser extent. sharper than it was during the Cold War period, and during the seventies and eighties of the last century, when the Soviet Union was an important player on the international scene.

The conclusion is that the Russian-Ukrainian war is a decisive and important historical moment in the world, as it heralds the birth of a new international system, and this system has new players and Washington is no longer the only one in control, and this may explain the hesitant positions of some Arab countries, although they are an ally For the Americans, but it is afraid of angering Russia and the eastern camp supporting it.

The Russo-Ukrainian War is a watershed and important moment in the world, as it heralds the birth of a new international order.

On the contrary, this war saved Washington from a significant decline in its global standing and gave new life to NATO, which was dying from the strikes of Donald Trump and the tendency of the French and Germans to rely on European self-reliance in defense issues
