In past global history, the effects of war have been far-reaching and devastating. In the case of World War II, for example, it is estimated that more than 70 million people lost their lives in the conflict. This figure reminds us that the importance of peace cannot be overlooked.
Recently, former Trump in the United States published a disturbing message on social media, warning that the world may be on the brink of World War III. This message was released on Easter Day and has sparked widespread attention and discussion. This remark by Trump appears to be a reflection of the growing tensions between the United States and Russia, who has repeatedly criticized Biden for potentially triggering a global conflict.
Trump's statement may have been influenced in part by his personal legal woes. He is currently facing indictment and possibly jail time, unprecedented in U.S. history. The internal crisis in the United States has implications not only at home, but also globally. Biden has exacerbated global confrontation through regional conflicts, putting pressure on Russia, China, and the Middle East.
The U.S. political system is being challenged, and Trump's indictment arraignments break with historical conventions and reflect the decline of the nation. In addition, Western countries are facing high inflation, a banking crisis, and a financial derivatives crisis, which are reflected in the large-scale ** in Europe.
The world is experiencing a wave of de-dollarization, new payment systems are being built, and dollar hegemony is disintegrating. Russia and other emerging economies emphasize strategic autonomy and oppose great power hegemony. The U.S. cutting off EU and Russian energy has exacerbated the EU's dependence on Middle Eastern oil and increased economic uncertainty.
The accumulation of all these problems can lead to risky actions by the United States, diverting domestic contradictions. With the dollar unstable, US hegemony shaken, and the global economic and security situation uncertain, civil strife in the United States could become a trigger for even greater conflict. It is therefore more important than ever to maintain peace and stability. We must be vigilant against anything that could lead to an escalation of the conflict and seek to resolve differences through diplomacy and dialogue.
