Fico Shooting: An Opportunity For Regional Autocrats To Weaponise “Polarisation” – QUICK TAKE

The world order, which in many respects allowed to create such lives, is becoming dated. The system, which was created to facilitate global (initially Western) capital flows and manufacturing moved to other countries, and finally awakened the sleeping giant in the East.
Tectonic fractures are beginning to demolish the long-standing world order, and the world’s centre of power is rapidly shifting to the other side of the planet. It is undisputable this is happening, and it is only a matter of time until the sun from the East will engulf the entire world and fry it a good bit.
