"In the wake of the 1999 Kosovo War, Gilbert Achcar argued that the world had entered a New Cold War, characterized by a state of permanent readiness for war on the part of the United States, Russia, and China. Archcar's analysis proved remarkably prescient. In the years since, the US has positioned itself as a global hegemon, China has become an economic powerhouse allied with Russia, and Russia had launched pre-emptive wars to block NATO, culminating in Vladimir Putin's murderous invasion of Ukraine in 2002.
