O The Dugins have different opinions. To be honest, I have small interest in them due to the fact that I am not curious in Dugin’s ideology. I'm curious in his accurate analysis, which I highly appreciate. Recently, agency Ria Nowosti published 1 of them. It concerns divisions that arose in the western planet after Donald Trump came to power. The analysis is written in terms of a Russian reader, but paradoxically it could be interesting to us as well. She could, but she won't. Why? due to the fact that in our country there are no political forces that would work for the good of Poland. Forces and centres that would analyse the world's events in terms of possible usage of them in our country's favor. That's the sad truth. To calculate the fewer exceptions that work on their own, 1 hand is enough. Unfortunately, the intellectual state of society does not give hope of improvement. This is not an accusation!! Since the 1990s, erstwhile our media have been taken over by the West, we have been subjected to intense anti-Russian propaganda. It fell on susceptible ground due to the fact that our idolatrous, uncritical and faithful attitude towards the West, or our “mornity”, strengthened its action. But above all, this is not the primitive propaganda we know from PRL! It's modern, exploiting the discovery of psychology, acting on our subconscious. To a large degree undetected and unwitting, due to the fact that not understood. Even those with advanced intelligence are susceptible to her! Studies have shown that only a fewer percent of each population is immune to this kind of propaganda. And that immunity doesn't depend on intelligence either. That's why you can't be stupid! You can only feel sorry that it does not belong to those fewer percent. This is the reason that trying to convince individual that Russia is not a threat to us will end in a bunch of insults or even murder. due to the fact that nobody understands that we're the threat to Russia! Not due to the fact that we're any kind of power.Oh, my God! But due to the fact that all attack on Russia has to come out of our country, and we do not hide that we will gladly lend it to this purpose!! Not only “our” infantyl-agent elite, but unfortunately a large part of our society is dreaming of the Polish-Russian war under the white-red flag with white stars! And Russia knows that! Unfortunately, Russia has a very stupid propaganda policy that further strengthens common hatred.
We do not realize that our biggest threat is Germany and Ukraine, and then England and the USA. Our current situation is akin to that of 1939. We dream of power And no 1 sees that one more time we're going on a consecutive way to the catastrophe that we're being pushed to by the same forces as then. Unless we had a good choice in 1939, we now have one, but we consciously do not want to usage it.
But I'm rambling, and everyone wants to read Dugin's analysis!

Trump broke the West into 5 parts.
Written by Alexander Dugin
There are very fast and dynamic processes in planet politics. This is mostly due to Trump's policy, which introduced a advanced level of turbulence, unpredictability and radicalism into the global system, and events are developing at an increasingly fast pace.
In front of our eyes, the thought of the collective West, that is, the solidarity and reasonably predictable policy of the major Western powers and of those countries that follow the steps of the West completely. specified a consensus no longer exists. Globalist projects are breaking in the seams, even Euro-Atlantic unity, NATO and the UN are at stake. Trump openly stated that global law does not apply to him and operates on the basis of his own ideas of what is moral and what is not. Trump's request to join Greenland in the United States and the threat of Canada's annexation, radically different from European powers to Ukraine and Israel (no unconditional support for the Zelensky regime, and on the contrary full support for Netanyahu and its mediate East policies) further deepens the forthcoming and almost already completed split.
In a situation where the Collective West as a unified political, ideological and geopolitical full no longer exists, a fresh map emerges gradually, where respective distinct and frequently contradictory formations appear in its place. This is not yet the final model, but only a trial with an indefinite final. Nevertheless, it can already be assumed that 5 separate geopolitical entities will be created in place of the Single West. Let's effort to describe them.
United States in the Trump 2.0 era as number 1 in the West
Trump's geopolitical views disagree importantly from the globalist strategy that erstwhile administrations used, not only democratic but besides Republican (as in George Bush junior). Trump openly proclaims direct American hegemony, which has respective stages. First of all, he wants to strengthen US dominance in both Americas. This is reflected in the latest version of the National safety Strategy, in which Trump refers straight to Monroe's doctrine, adding his own imagination to it.
The Monroe Doctrine was formulated by president James Monroe on December 2, 1823 in an yearly message to Congress. The main thought was to accomplish the full independency of the fresh planet from the Old (i.e. European metropolises) and the United States was seen as the main political and economical force in the liberation of the countries of both Americas from European control. It was not explicitly said that 1 form of colonialism (European) would be replaced by another (from the United States side), but a certain hegemony of the United States in the region was suggested.
In a modern interpretation, including Trump's innovation, Monroe's doctrine assumes the following:
– full and absolute sovereignty of the United States and independency from any transnational institution, rejection of globalisation;
– halting the crucial geopolitical influence of another large powers (China, Russia, and the countries of Europe) on all countries of both Americas;
– establishment of a direct military-political and economical hegemony of the United States over both Americas and adjacent oceanic areas.
The United States' support of vassal regimes in Latin America, the removal of politicians undesirable to Washington, and interference in the interior affairs of all states of the region — frequently under the pretext of fighting drug trafficking, illegal immigration and even communism (Venezuela, Cuba, Nicaragua). Overall, this is not very different from the US policy of the 20th century.
New in Trump's doctrine is his claim to the annexation of Greenland and Canada, as well as a disrespectful approach to Europe and NATO partners.
In fact, the United States is announcing itself here an empire surrounded by neighbors who should stay in vassal dependence on the metropolis. This is reflected in Trump's main policy slogan "Make America large Again" or its synonym "America First".
During his second presidential term, Trump implements this line much more rigorously than during his first term, which radically changes the global balance of power.
You can consider specified a Trumpy, American-centric West as West Number One.
European Union as West Number Two
West number 2 is the European Union, which is in a very hard situation. For many decades, EU countries in their policies, safety and even the economy have been oriented towards the United States under the Atlantic Partnership, each time choosing between European sovereignty and submission to Washington. At the same time, erstwhile American leaders pretended to respect Europeans as almost equal partners and perceive to their opinions, creating an illusion of a collective Western consensus. Trump demolished this model and brutally forced the European Union to recognise its vassal position.
Thus, Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever in January 2026, during the planet economical Forum in Davos, openly spoke in the context of Europe's dependence on the United States of America about "the happy vassal" and "the unhappy slave". Earlier European elites were “happy vassals”. Trump looked at the situation from a different position and made them feel “unhappy slaves.” He stressed the choice between self-respect and the failure of dignity in the face of Washington's force on Greenland's annexation, but the European Union is clearly not ready for this choice yet.
In this fresh situation, the EU has become independent, against its will. Macron and Merz began talking about the request to make a European safety strategy erstwhile the United States is not so much a warrant of this safety as a fresh serious threat. So far, the EU has not taken decisive action, but the Western contours number 2 are becoming increasingly clear. It is besides much different from Trump's position on Ukraine: the president of the United States wants to end this unnecessary war with Russia (at least so he says) and the EU, on the contrary, aims to bring it to an end, leaning towards direct participation.
West number 1 and West number 2 positions on Netanyahu and Palestinian genocide in the Gaza Strip besides differ. Trump full supports this and the EU condemns it more.
United Kingdom as West Number Three
Against the background of specified an Atlantic divide in the individual of Britain after a brexit appears another pole - West number three. On the 1 hand, Starmer's leftist-liberal government is close to the EU on key issues, but on the another hand London traditionally maintains close relations with the United States, acting as supervisor of European processes on the part of Washington. However, Britain does not belong to the EU and does not support the Trump line itself, in which it is attributed to the unenviable slave-wasal function of the Belgian Prime Minister.
The UK can no longer act as an global intermediary due to the fact that it has become an curious organization in many situations. First of all, in the Ukrainian conflict, where she completely sided with Kiev and besides became the initiator of the escalation of relations with Russia, until a direct military participation on the side of the Zelensk regime. It was the visit of British Prime Minister Boris Johnson to Ukraine that destroyed the Istanbul Agreements of 2022.
However, the British version of the West number 3 cannot return to the erstwhile imperial policy. The resources of modern England, its economical collapse and the collapse of migration policy, as well as its general scale, do not let it to play a truly leading function within the British Commonwealth of Nations or become a hegemon of Europe.
The Giants as West Number Four
If we take into account ideology, organizational networks and institutions of globularists specified as George Soros, the planet economical Forum and another global organizations that share the thought of a planet government and a single world, we will get the West number four. It was this West that gave the speech at the erstwhile stage, being the main and unifying force that allowed to talk about the "collective West". These circles were represented by a globalist elite in the United States itself – in the individual of the same "deep state" that Trump began to fight. It is primarily the top of the Democratic Party, as well as part of Republican-neoconservatives, occupying an indirect position between Trump with his America First and classical globalism. Most EU leaders and Starmer themselves are part of this globalist project, whose position has weakened importantly during Trump's rule, resulting in the division of the West into respective distinctly different poles.
A typical example of West number four, which was inactive the only and the main one, is Canada's position. During a fresh forum in Davos, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney stated that the current planet order is being destroyed, and the planet is in a state of fragmentation alternatively than transformation. The large powers usage the economy as weapons – customs, supply chains and infrastructure to exert pressure, which in his opinion leads to deglobalization. At the same time, he rejected Trump's claims about Canada's dependence on the United States, calling on the mediate Powers to unite against the hegemony of Trumpism, diversifying links (including rapprochement with China) and opposing populism.
This is simply a sign of how the West number 4 gradually emerges into a different community based on ideological and geopolitical principles – primarily through direct and expanding opposition to Trumpism as the West number one.
Israel as West Number Five
Finally, in fresh years, and peculiarly clearly after the start of Trump's second term, another West-West number 5 appears. Israel is Benjamin Netanjah. This tiny country, dependent on the United States and Europe, with limited demographic resources and a local economy, increasingly aspires to be a self-contained civilization and plays an crucial role, and from the point of view of the Israelis themselves, an exceptional function in the destiny of the full West, which is simply a foothold in the mediate East.
Until 1 point, Israel could be regarded as the proxies of the United States, another, though privileged and favorite, vassal. However, Netanyahu's policy and the extremist right-wing Zionist wing on which it rests, as well as the revealed influence of the Israeli Zionist lobby on United States politics forced it to look at things in a different light.
Firstly, the scale of the demolition of the civilian population in the Gaza Strip by Netanyahu and the emergence of extremist politicians and spiritual leaders in the foreground, openly declaring their desire to build the large Israel (Itamar Ben-Gvir, Bezalel Smotrich, Dov Lior and others) have besides sparked rejection in the West – especially in Western countries numbered two, 3 and four. Neither the European Union nor the United Kingdom of Starmer nor globalists like Soros have supported Netanyahu in his most decisive actions – including the war on Iran.
Secondly, Trump's full and unconditional support for Netanjah divided Trump's supporters themselves, who triggered a immense wave of social media protests against Israel's influence and its networks in American politics. Any Republican or Trump administration typical during public appearances and on social media has been swamped with demands to respond: America First or Israel First? What is more crucial to you: America or Israel? It put many in an impasse and ruined their careers. Admitting 1 or the another proved to be a dangerous ostracism either from the masses or from an highly influential lobby.
The communicative with the publication of Epstein's files only compounded the concerns of those who believed Israel's influence on American politics was excessive and disproportionate. The impression was that Tel Aviv and his network of influences were an independent and highly crucial instance, capable of dictated their will to powerful first-order powers.
This is how the West number 5 arose – with its agenda, its ideology and its geopolitics.
Conclusion
Let us conclude a brief analysis of the divided West by comparing the ratio of these poles to the war in Ukraine. This is most likely the most crucial criterion for us.
The least curious in this conflict is West number five. For Netanyahu, Putina Russia is not the main opponent, and the government in Kiev does not enjoy unconditional support from right-wing networks. To the degree that Russia supports strategically, politically, economically and, most importantly, the militaryly anti-Israeli forces in the mediate East – and especially Iran – the West number 5 objectively is on the other side than Russia in a series of local conflicts. However, this does not translate into direct support for the Zelenski regime. Although, of course, Israel is not on our side.
Overall, the West is number one, or Trump's West, does not consider Russia to be the main enemy and the main target. From time to time, he cites anti-Russian arguments (in peculiar justifying the request for Greenland to be annexed for the safety of America in the face of a possible atomic attack by Russia), he continues to exert multilateral force on Moscow and provides Kiev with weapons. You cannot call Trump's policy friendly to us, but compared to another forces divided (and divided by Trump himself) The West's anti-Russian attitude is not extreme.
The situation in the West is completely different under numbers two, 3 and four. Both the European Union and the United Kingdom of Starmer and globalist networks (including the Democratic organization in the US, and Carney's government in Canada) occupy a extremist anti-Russian position, unconditionally support the Zelenian government and are ready to proceed to supply all kinds of support to Ukraine, including direct military support. It is dominated by the globalistic belief that Russia Putin's return to traditionalism and conservatism, determined to build a multipolar planet and strengthen its civilizational sovereignty, is ideologically and geopolitically opposed to the plans of globalists to make a planet government and a unified world. A model of specified a globalist state is the European Union, whose model should, according to globalists, be gradually extended to all mankind – without national states, religions, nations and cultural groups.
However, for the West number two, and especially for the West number four, the real enemy is not only Putin, but besides Trump himself. Hence the political story that Trump was working for Russia. The U.S. president divided the collective West and actually moved from the central position of the globalists who previously dominated the region. However, he did so completely against Putin and Russia's interests, following his own views and beliefs.
If the trend to divide between West Number 1 and West Number 2 persists in the future, it can be assumed that the contradictions between Brussels and Washington will intensify to specified an degree that European leaders begin to consider whether it would not be appropriate in specified a situation to turn to Russia to balance Trump's increasing appetites and overall aggression. Weak hints to this anticipation can be read in any statements by Macron and Merz against the background of the escalation of the situation around Greenland. This is highly improbable for the time being, but deepening the division of the West into 5 entities may make it more real.
Finally, West number three, represented by Britain, is 1 of the main centres of hostility and hatred towards Russia. This is hard to explain rationally due to the fact that Britain has no real chance of restoring its hegemony. If earlier the large Game between England and Russia was 1 of the major, if not the most crucial force line of planet politics, then in the second half of the 20th century England had completely lost the position of the planet power, giving it to the United States, its erstwhile colony. However, it is not possible to explain the highly advanced level of rusophobia among contemporary English elites only by the phantom pain of long-lost dominance.
Thus, the collective West is divided into 5 reasonably independent centres of power. It is hard to foretell how the mosaic will be arranged in the future, but it is clear that we must take these circumstances into account in our analysis of the global situation. Especially in explaining the geopolitical and ideological context in which our peculiar operation in Ukraine is developing.
