US Geopolitical Nightmare

Iran's state visit to China could change the global geopolitical landscape, as it is predicted that the China-Russia-Iran alliance could pose the greatest threat to the United States' hegemonic status.


From February 14th to 16th, the Iranian President made a three-day successful and fruitful state visit to China, which has significant implications for changing the global geopolitical landscape.


As early as 1997, the well-known American hawkish strategist Brzezinski predicted that three possible alliances would emerge in the 21st century that could undermine the United States' hegemonic status, which were:


1) The alliance of China, Japan, and South Korea

2) The Great European Union alliance, and

3) The China-Russia-Iran alliance.


Brzezinski believed that the China-Japan-South Korea economic alliance had the highest possibility, but the United States only needed to intensify the ethnic conflicts of the three countries to destroy the emergence of this alliance, so it was not a concern. The Great European Union alliance refers to the EU plus Russia. The EU has a developed economy, while Russia has cheap energy. They are naturally complementary. Once they join forces, the United States' hegemonic status will be threatened. The current Russian-Ukrainian war has basically dispelled Brzezinski's concerns.


The third alliance is China, Russia, and Iran. Brzezinski believed that this was the alliance that posed the greatest threat to the US hegemonic status in the first 50 years of the 21st century, but it was highly unlikely to happen because it required the United States to make an extremely short-sighted strategic mistake and adopt hostile policies toward these three countries. Only then can this disastrous geopolitical nightmare occur.


From the unlimited cooperation between China and Russia, to the rapid deepening of Russia-Iran relations, and then to Iran-China deepening ties, the United States' biggest geopolitical nightmare has actually come true!
