The United States was once regarded as an invincible hegemon in the world, with a powerful military and the ability to intervene in international affairs, but a series of events in recent years have revealed the shattering of this myth.
First of all, the occurrence of contradictions and disputes such as the war in Afghanistan, Syria, and Iraq has exposed the difficult problem of US intervention. These wars have claimed tens of thousands of civilians**, and U.S. aid operations have not brought about significant success.
In addition, the crisis in the South China Sea and the nuclear threat from North Korea have also challenged US hegemony. Second, the United States has exposed flaws in aiding Israel, confronting anti-American forces, and supporting the Russian-Ukrainian battlefield.
These actions have not only aroused criticism from the international community, but also demonstrated the embarrassment and struggle of the US policymakers in dealing with global affairs. And in North Korea, South America, Africa and other places, more and more countries began to expel the United States and France troops and no longer depend on them.
This is a clear sign that America's global influence and position are being challenged. These incidents have not only exposed the inadequacy of the US military's strength, but also revealed the bottlenecks facing the logistics and manufacturing sectors.
At the same time, the international situation has become more complicated, and many countries have begun to pursue independent and autonomous foreign policies, rather than simply being dependent on the United States.
This makes U.S. global hegemony even more fragile and unsustainable.
However, we cannot ignore that the United States remains one of the most powerful military forces in the world. With an extensive network of allies and a strong economy, the United States can still play an important role in international affairs.
In addition, the United States also occupies an important position in scientific and technological innovation and cultural export, which provides some support for their global hegemony. However, the United States is no longer an invincible myth.
Changes in the world landscape have raised doubts about whether the United States will be able to maintain its global hegemony. Although a clear successor has not yet emerged, it remains to be seen who will be the future global hegemon.
