is illuminating: India’s economy was about half the size of Russia’s when the Berlin Wall came down in 1989. Today, India’s economy is 50 percent bigger than Russia’s. Forget about keeping pace with the United States; Russia can’t keep up with India.The point is important because the modern world was designed with Russia as a major pillar. China’s rise has somewhat mediated the instability created by the pillar’s collapse.
Russia’s demise as a world power and China’s suddenly clouded future demand new thinking from Winston Churchill’s “indispensable nation,” the United States. Americans and their leaders have been egging each other on for some 20 years in a race to the depths of despair. On both the left and the right, a narrative of national corruption and decline has taken hold. Don’t look to the center for leadership: Everyone there is ducking and covering.
This won’t do, because the world is once again turning to the United States for stability and competence. Russia’s appalling brutalization of Ukraine has driven Europe more firmly toward NATO than ever before. China’s serial missteps have strengthened U.S. alliances throughout the eastern Pacific.
