Mark Carney: The world is facing a new system change
Canada's new Prime Minister Mark Carney delivered an important speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos that gave the international community much to think about. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
In his address, he revealed the injustices in global relations and emphasized that the world has entered a new phase of systemic changes. Carney noted that the era of "old lies" on the international stage is coming to an end, highlighting the geopolitical and economic consequences of this process.
The Prime Minister referred to the famous philosopher Václav Havel's work "The Power of the Powerless" to analyze modern geopolitics. According to him, whereas states and companies often justified themselves with false slogans in the past, today this method has become outdated.
Carney called on states and organizations to abandon double standards and pursue policies based on truth. He criticized the international rules system for often serving the interests of powerful countries.
Mark Carney stated that global economic and energy crises have negatively affected integration processes. In his view, major countries often use integration as a tool of pressure to serve their own interests.
Tariffs, supply chains, and economic restrictions have turned into means of coercion instead of cooperation. Additionally, the weakening of international organizations is prompting each country to independently build a "fortress" to protect its own interests.
The Canadian Prime Minister also presented his country's new strategic direction. He announced that Canada is increasing its defense spending, joining Europe's defense systems, and showing determination in protecting Arctic sovereignty.
In the energy sector, Canada aims to effectively utilize its rich resources and financial potential. During the speech, Carney called on middle powers, including Uzbekistan, to unite.
He believes that if these countries do not act together, they will always remain in a weak position in negotiations with major powers. He emphasized the necessity of establishing genuine and equal cooperation without waiting for the old order.
Carney's speech was regarded in Davos as one of the boldest statements about the "new world order." Do you think middle powers can unite against the pressure of major countries and strengthen their voice?
