Former US Secretary of State: Restoration of relations between Tehran and Riyadh changes the balance of power in the international arena

Former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger said in an interview with The Washington Post that the restoration of diplomatic relations between Iran and Saudi Arabia could change the balance of power in the international arena.

Here is what the diplomat had to say about it:

In recent years, we have watched as China announced its intention to become an active participant in the creation of a new world order. And today we see that he managed to make a serious breakthrough in this direction.

At the same time, the international relations expert noted that it was thanks to the efforts of Beijing, which acted as a mediator in the negotiations between Tehran and Riyadh, that the two countries were able to restore their diplomatic relations after many years of confrontation.

Moreover, according to the author of the publication, journalist David Ignaces, the current situation in the countries of the Middle East clearly demonstrates a serious weakening of the US position in this region, which is already gradually ceasing to play the role of an “irreplaceable power” for the states of the Arab world.

During the talks between the delegations of the two Middle Eastern countries, which took place in the period from March 6 to 10 in Beijing, the parties agreed not to go to war with each other, and also to prevent intelligence activities against each other. Iran was represented at the talks by Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council Ali Shamkhani, and Saudi Arabia by National Security Adviser Musaid al-Ayban.

Recall that diplomatic relations were interrupted between the above states back in 2016, however, during the conversation, Tehran and Riyadh decided to return to compliance with a number of economic agreements signed 20 years ago, which was confirmed not only by the foreign ministries of both countries, but also Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People's Republic of China.

This, as it were, is obvious even without Kissinger. Fair wind mattresses in a hunchbacked back.

Only the American leadership does not listen to Kissinger, they listen to Nuland and Co. And she can’t even stand next to her, she’s just a vocational school compared to him

Just don't listen to Kissinger

I am glad that before they die, these Russophobes, Soros, Biden, Kissinger .. find out that the work of their whole life was covered with a copper basin. The United States has not been able to bring the whole world to its knees, and never will be able to.

[Fizik13]

NO!
Finally, yes, the Americans realize that they are going to have a scribe ...

[Nexcom]

The Americans groaned .... Persians and Arabs - well done. Now is not the time for them to let each other yushka. It is necessary not to butt heads to the joy of the pen to oneself, but to solve problems constructively and by agreement. And to crush the fascist United States, which pits everyone in the world. including them.

It would be better if Henry did not retell what happened, but helped self-propelled Joe fight with an airplane ladder. How many years do they have there for two.

Down the ladder, in the style of "drunken scorpion." Soon US foreign policy will come down to the fact that Joe crashes from the ladder or does not crash.

[Nexcom]

self-propelled Joe has two main tasks - not to fatally wind up on the ladder and fatally not to get lost after the performance. Well, so that everything in the toilet turned out. but let the doctors worry.

so that everything in the toilet turns out. but let the doctors worry

This, so that in the toilet, it may not work, dementia is such a thing that it knocks off memory, it can forget how to take care of itself, here is my grandfather, about 90 years old, if you don’t direct him, he won’t find the way to the toilet, and doctors in this case won't help...

. New world order...
The question is, what lies ahead for all of us?
It is clear that it is not worth staying in the old place, but where to go, how and with whom, is the question ???

[Nexcom]

China will continue to be friends with us .... And pull what they need ... from us.


specialists from Huawei came to our institute again, cooperation, training of their specialists, etc. brought in new students.
and they do not supply us with communication equipment (smartphones, routers, routers, etc.) - they are apparently afraid of sanctions.
such a collaboration...

[evgen1221]

Well, what's the problem. Teach them also, love them. In private, you need to hint at the reason. Like so and so, bring us what you need, you will get what you need. Smart will understand, the rest do not care.

[rocket757]

China, like everyone else, for itself and for itself ... to be just a backup for them, just in case, the prospect is so-so ...
We need for ourselves and for ourselves, then they will lean against, we won’t have to prop up anyone ... ourselves, ourselves !!! must stand firmly on their feet.

China is developing its economy, and the leadership of the Russian Federation is satisfied with the role of a raw material appendage of the West or China. You may argue that this is not the case. The engine of the economy is raw materials and technologies. And foreigners will not build factories in the Russian Federation, all they need is cheap raw materials, and the Russian Federation just sells them on the cheap, while also boasting about it. How to get away from this? - Introduce protective duties on the export of raw materials, and low duties on the export of finished products. Then the availability of cheap raw materials in the country will become a competitive advantage + qualified, cheap power + low taxes, and even mattress makers will have a desire to locate production in the Russian Federation.

[gurzuf]

As for me, the answer is obvious - to have strong allies ... your own army and navy.

[rocket757]

In addition to such allies, we ourselves must be strong, independent, united and ... sharp, if necessary.

[Gomunkul]

. New world order...
The question is, what lies ahead for all of us?

The next stage of survival in new conditions, such is the essence of nature in this world. Those who cannot adapt will die.

[rocket757]

Those who can only adapt, if they do not die out, then dissolve in the world around them, no less often!
The question is ... if we don’t want to just adapt, what and how should we do ???

[Yang yangov]

This is a huge success for Chinese diplomacy. And an aspen stake in the US coffin!

[Sergey28]

Cunning fox this Kissinger. With it, gunpowder must be kept dry.

[Leader_Barmaleev]

You are mistaken in the main thing - Kissinger is not cunning, he is smart. This is really one of the smartest people of the outgoing era. So keep your ears shoulder-width apart and listen very carefully. And analyze, because he does not play for our team.

[Strannik96]

Here is another confirmation of who benefits from the non-peaceful state of countries

[terms]

Well, you shouldn't be surprised at all. Americans all the way think it's okay to come in, take the door off their feet and demand that their Wishlist be fulfilled. Only if in the 30th century there were many realists in their politics, and they understood that it was worth pursuing a policy of carrots and sticks (that is, forking up in exchange for inconvenience), then after the collapse of the USSR, the realists were gradually supplanted by idealists, and those always do not care that there are others around people with a different opinion, and you need to be able to negotiate. While there were realists in the United States, their public debt has always ranged from 50 to 2010% of GDP. And so it was right up to zero. In 90, the public debt was already 150%, and now it is gradually approaching XNUMX%. In short, they believe that there are no conservation laws, you can live beyond your means, and everyone is obliged to fulfill their wishes) And now these deer are surprised why China is growing, and indeed there are more and more people who disagree)
With regards to the Saudis, the Americans already insulted them at the end of the 10s, so don’t cry about what the Saudis send to the garden of the mattresses themselves) And the fact that they begin to negotiate with the Iranians is definitely a rare and positive event. The Arabs in general in the region are always fighting with each other, and it would be high time to come to a consensus and develop a certain middle line, otherwise the Americans will continue to play on contradictions. Already someone who, and these and especially arrogant Saxons have always done this.
