The Role of the Neo-Authoritarian Bloc in Modern Conflicts

  One of the most significant changes to the global geopolitical order since the beginning of this decade has been the formation of a new bloc of non-Western authoritarian challengers to Western or US-led hegemony . The Neo-Authoritarian Bloc (NAB) of China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Belarus, Venezuela, and Myanmar has collaborated militarily in Ukraine and Myanmar, and the forms of support put forward by this new grouping have led to changes in the dynamics of both conflicts significantly. The involvement of the bloc has altered the trajectory of both conflicts: the besieged junta of Min Aung Hlaing in Myanmar has survived five years of widespread armed rebellion due to the substantial level of support received from its fellow authoritarians . Similarly, Vladimir Putin’s mismanaged full-scale military invasion of Ukraine has been sustained by a consistent and high level of support from the NAB . The key types of support provided to both regimes fall into three categories: diploma...

Distilled analysis of Maung Zarni for Myanmar people

 Maung Zarni  States are, typically, not your friends or saviors. This is the distilled analysis of mine for Myanmar people, who have for too long looked to the UN, "the liberal democratic West" as something progressive, supportive and virtuous.   INGOs, most of which are "profiteers in virtue trading, but never really organically linked to any resistance or liberation movements,  have injected too much false hopes among Myanmar's desperate, impoverished and oppressed people by more than one central actot at home.     Zarni

Letter from Bethlehem: Mazin Qumsiyeh

  There is a curse for a thinking person. It is a double curse if that thinking person is also afflicted with the (some would say naive) idea that he/she can help the world to a better future (less suffering, peace, sustainability etc). The activist addiction to work is the believe that he/she can change cirumstances and that working towards sustainable human and natural communities is a duty (sustainable planet). Yet, it is difficult to keep consistent positive attitude knowing how close we are to an unlivable planet due to climate change, habitat destruction, pollution, overexploitation of resources,and  invasive species. This is the curse of knowledge. This is not to mention how close we are to a catastrophic global war........
