Summary
<p>Alastair Crooke is a former British diplomat and the Founder of "Conflicts Forum" based in Beirut. He was formerly an advisor on Middle East issues to Javier Solana, the EU Foreign Policy Chief. Crooke argues that Western politics are broken and there are no indications that the underlying issues are being addressed. Meanwhile, China and Russia are now bowing to the West's coercion as China is winning the economic war and Russia is defeating NATO in Ukraine.
