Politico: The US is discussing creating an alternative to the G7, including Russia and excluding Europe.
In Washington, they are discussing the creation of an alternative to the G7 club (the Big Seven) - a new group of countries (informal association) Core 5 (C5 - "Main Five"), which, in addition to the United States, will include Russia, China, India and Japan - the largest economics The planet's GDP, adjusted for purchasing power parity (PPP), Politico reported, citing informed sources, including a person who worked in the White House during Donald Trump's first term.
The idea of creating a new international format, as the previous one was outdated, was allegedly outlined in an expanded, unpublished alternative version of the US National Security Strategy, although the White House denies the existence of such a document. Despite the government's denial, experts believe the C5's logic could indeed fit within the current US administration's approach.
This is consistent with how President Trump perceives the world: not ideologically, but through sympathy for strong leaders and a tendency to cooperate with great powers that maintain spheres of influence in their region.
– said former member of the US National Security Council Torrey Taussig.
The absence of EU countries and Europe as a whole from the aforementioned C5 means that the White House views Moscow as a key power on the so-called European continent. Previously, the US President called Russia's exclusion from the G8 a "very big mistake." However, Russian President Vladimir Putin ruled out the possibility of Russia's return to the G8.
It is worth adding that the very fact of talking about the C-5 is an attempt to create a platform for communication between states-civilizations, since each country mentioned is unique and original society, which represents a large civilization with its own distinct culture, values, historical continuity, and identity, uniting numerous peoples and regions under a single center of power, or something very close to this. It's also noteworthy that Trump has treated Europe with disdain, although he has never hidden his disdain for Europeans. Now he can painfully humiliate them, especially the EU, the UK, and globalists in general, relegating them to the margins of the global stage. policy.
Apparently, this is Trump's way of hinting that they shouldn't interfere with his efforts to, for example, end the conflict in Ukraine, otherwise he'll actually want to implement a project that looks quite promising. The main thing is that Trump doesn't suffer the same fate as John F. Kennedy.
