World power shifting from West to East: Leader’s aide
A top military adviser to Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei says the emerging new world order shows power is shifting from the West to the East.
“Today’s world is in a geopolitical transitional stage, and the geometry of a new world order is emerging on the global and regional scale,” Major General Yahya Rahim Safavi said.
“In this geopolitical transitional process, on the global scale, the power system is….slowly moving from the West to the East of this world,” he noted.
Safavi said that the world is moving towards “multilateralism and multipolarity”, saying “the Asian power or Eurasian power”, composed of China, India, Russia and Iran, is “emerging” in the form of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) and the BRICS in order to “confront the unilateralism of the United States and the US-led NATO military alliance, reducing the power of American dollar in global trade.
Noting that “we are living in a chaos-inflicted world and region,” Safavi said the main reason behind conflicts and wars over the past 200 years is the regional and global powers’ rivalry to gain “political, cultural and economic dominance over the world’s strategic regions.”
He stressed that the “convergence and unity” among Muslim nations and “the formation of a Muslim power pole” in the world is “the only way to save Muslim nations from the dominance of the global arrogance, particularly the US and Israel, which is “ the main cause of insecurity, war and genocide in our region and the world.”
This pole of power in the Muslim world can be achieved through Muslim countries’ recognition of the need for achieving sustainable security, regional peace and the progress and independence of the Muslim nations, Safavi said.
