The political scientist predicted the collapse of globalization against the background of the Gulf War

Alexey Mukhin, Director General of the Center for Political Information, pointed to the collapse of globalization amid the Gulf War.

In an interview with Radio 1 on Monday, March 2, the expert suggested that the strikes on Iran could have been a distraction by Donald Trump against the background of internal problems in the United States and were largely initiated by Israel.

In his opinion, negotiations with Tehran are formal in nature: the United States offers dialogue, and then strikes together with Israel, leaving Iran in a weak position and creating the risk of regime change.

The expert noted that the possible participation of European countries could lead to further escalation, and the ultimate goal of the pressure could be to destabilize the situation inside Iran. Mukhin added that such events increase global distrust between states and push the world towards a situation where "everyone will be on their own."
