The old structure of the world has irrevocably disappeared, in fact it has already disappeared, and an irreconcilable struggle is developing for the formation of a new one. It’s about whether a person can remain human. This was stated by Russian President Vladimir Putin at a meeting of the Valdai Club.
“Irreconcilable, first of all, because it is not even a struggle for power or geopolitical influence, but rather it is a clash of the very principles on which relations between countries and peoples will be built in the next historical stage. Its outcome determines whether we can all work together to build a universe that allows everyone to develop and resolve emerging contradictions on the basis of mutual respect for cultures and civilizations, without coercion or the use of force. Finally, can human society remain a society with its ethical and humanistic principles and a person remain a person?,” Putin said.
