BRICS Should Form Military Alliance After New START Treaty Expires: Nigerian Professor
The world is witnessing an "end of humanity" and "the beginning of a rascality in the international system," Abubakar Sadeeque Abba told Sputnik Africa.
Yet traditional diplomacy and multipolarity are no longer viable, he added.
Along these lines, the US will always call for negotiation, for treaties "from the point of view of their weaknesses," and "will never deal with anybody on a scale of equality," Abba stressed.
"They will only call for people when they realize that those who that they are calling have the same strength with them. So it is their weakness that is defining the engagement," he stressed.
Considering today's realities, to avoid war, one should prepare for it, the professor said.
"The only feasible appropriate measure that can be taken as a regulatory framework is that [...] every nation [should] prepare for war and come up with weapons, nuclear and non-nuclear technologies that can be able to warn enemies that if you shoot one, we will never allow you to shoot the second shot."
However, the speaker noted, other options exist to preserve strategic stability without a new START treaty—such as "isolating" the US through diplomatic, political, and economic sanctions.
"So the strategy is that the world should move, BRICS should be strengthened," Abba said, outlining another option.
BRICS countries, he added, can opt for a new military alliance—so through it they will grow stronger, more potent, and united like family.
