'Massive Turning Point in World History': South African Scholar on Emerging Global Order
The conflict in Ukraine has accelerated a fundamental shift in international relations, Dr. Tafadzwa Ruzive of the University of the Free State told Sputnik Africa.
“Respect for territorial integrity, legitimacy and credibility are paving the way, showing a new direction for the whole world,” he said.
Ruzive described it as a break from the old, largely unipolar system, where powerful states often disregarded the sovereignty of others. These changes mark a “massive turning point” that will shape how nations engage with one another in the future, the expert stated.
The scholar also noted that NATO and the EU face a crisis of credibility, while Russia has presented itself as a more consistent partner.
