WASHINGTON'S FOREIGN POLICY has played and continues to play one of the main roles in the international political and military crises in Ukraine, in the way they began and are unfolding. The American ruling circles spent twenty-five post-Soviet years tightening their grip on Ukraine and its people through a network of institutions ranging from the oligarchs with money in Western banks and numerous NGOs to rigidly controlled political parties and neo-fascist fighters - thrown into action at the opportune moment to bring a pro-American regime to power.

THE 70TH ANNIVERSARY of the United Nations Organization is an international event of signal importance. Set up as a fundamental element of the international system, the UN remains its cornerstone with no alternatives no matter what its numerous critics are saying in chorus. Today amid the disarray and contradictions of the contemporary world, mankind, if confronted with the task of setting up a universal international structure to preserve peace and security, would have come up with an indifferent result if not a failure. Critics concentrate at individual aspects of the UN activity and talk about details: they stand too close to be aware of the grandiose panorama of this construction, hence their attention to arches and façades

ANY NATIONAL CRISIS tests a country's political system, exposing its latent vices and vulnerabilities. European countries have been plunged into such crises when, after times of affluent, carefree existence, they were spontaneously inundated by refugees from conflict-stricken areas in the Middle East and North Africa. One wonders, though, whether this flood of newcomers was spontaneous at all - too sudden to come from nowhere, it has had clear causes, the flows of refugees have had specific destinations and appear to have followed specific transit routes.

TOTAL CONTROL over the Asia-Pacific as a step toward world domination had been on America's agenda for a long time before the dynamic shifts of recent decades, the status of the leading world powers reached by China and India and their membership, together with Russia, in the SCO and BRICS raised fairly high barriers to Washington's global ambitions.

Its numerous trump cards, on the other hand, allow this global organization to claim the role of an instrument to be used to improve life on Earth. This claim stems from its legitimacy and moral authority that rests on its unique Charter (the backbone of international law), a vast intellectual luggage, a wide sphere of interests and competences, and its ability to attack the hardest problems and talk as an equal to world powers.

THE PATH TO PEACE has always been thorny, unlike the path to war: It is always easier to walk down a slippery slope, while the expectations are often brighter than the results that are achieved, that is, of course unless the goal is to indulge in self-publicity on the captain's bridge of an aircraft carrier, fly a victorious flag over Baghdad or "win a difficult victory over the opponents of democracy" ahead of elections in one's own country.

Armen Oganesyan, Editor-in-Chief of International Affairs: Grigory Petrovich, there have been many cases where researchers in different countries, including in Russia, made important discoveries, but they were patented by the Americans. How does this happen?

PEOPLE WONDER, "How come that the United States, a great democratic state and its no less democratic allies in Europe turn a blind eye to massive crimes against civilians in Donbass?" This is not accidental and this attitude has a pre-history of its own.

THE 70TH ANNIVERSARY of the UN has become a major international event of the year. The jubilee session of the UN General Assembly was attended by over 150 heads of state and government. This fact alone testifies to the recognition of the unique role that the UN, originally designed to prevent a repetition of the tragedy of World War II, plays in international relations as their central coordinating mechanism.

TODAY, our Western partners seem ready to take into account the lessons of Iraq where the ruling Baath party and the army were disbanded during American occupation leaving the ungovernable country. History knows no examples of successful "regime change": disintegration of all (including law and order) structures of state governance is inevitable. Successful "regime change" is a utopia; those who think differently are indulging in dangerous fantasies the price of which is unacceptably high. In the history of Russia abdication of Nicholas II and the Romanov dynasty in 1917 marked the point of non-return. The law and order structures were relieved from the oath of allegiance, disintegration began. European history has its own periods of lawlessness and disorder. Not subjected to large-scale purges the law and order structures remained disoriented; they ceased to exist; the effects are easy to guess: the state was left defenseless in the face of internal and external threats.

TWO HUNDRED YEARS have passed since the Vienna Congress (1815) when Europe's leading monarchs led by the Russian autocrat Alexander I produced yet another scenario for the world following the routing of Napoleon Bonaparte's empire; the Congress determined also the status of Polish lands.

SHORTLY BEFORE THE UNITED NATIONS marked its 70th anniversary in October 2015, some countries mounted pressure for enlarging the number of seats on the UN Security Council. This campaign is spearheaded by the so-called Group of Four (G4) - Brazil, India, Germany, and Japan, which seek permanent membership in the Security Council. Russia as one of the council's permanent members again finds itself confronted with questions of whose membership bids to support and what is the formula for reforming the United Nations' main body that all UN member states would accept.

THE 25TH ANNIVERSARY of the incorporation of the German Democratic Republic into the Federal Republic of Germany fell at the year of the 70th anniversary of the victory over Nazi Germany in World War II, which saved the world from Nazism. This is an extra reason to try to see what conclusions the Germans drew from events that had become turning points not only in their own but in world history. One would be able to describe today's Germany with its determining influence on the policies of the European Union as a mini-great power, a country on which a lot depends worldwide. Periods when Germany was a great power properly speaking, both as the empire of the Kaisers and as the Third Reich, ended up in global disasters. Have the Germans learned those painful lessons of history? Before this question is answered, even approximate forecasting of the future of our continent is impossible.

THE CRISIS between Russia and the West is associated with Crimea and Russia's actions in Donbass and Ukraine; in fact, it has deeper roots while its long-term repercussions might prove to be much graver than expected. A large-scale armed clash cannot be excluded even if this possibility is gradually reducing; we should be ready to political confrontation and contracted economic ties. Today, Europe is facing an even greater threat: a civilizational divorce with Russia.

TODAY, Russian-Chinese relations are officially described by Moscow and Beijing as a comprehensive, wide-ranging, equal and trusting partnership and strategic interaction (according to the Treaty of Good-Neighborliness and Friendly Cooperation between the People's Republic of China and the Russian Federation of July 16, 2001). Based on this geopolitical and geo-economic paradigm, effective and pragmatic practice has evolved, which has become a positive factor in global development and global governance in the 21st century.

TODAY, the situation in the European security sphere is perhaps at its lowest. The current problems did not emerge yesterday: They have been accumulating for years. The prime cause of the serious cooling of the political climate in Europe was certainly not the Ukraine crisis. The roots of the contradictions that came to a head during the conflict in Ukraine go way back to the 1990s

IT IS WITH GOOD REASON that we speak of the legal thought of Russia, and the school of Fyodor Martens, in the first place, as part of the contemporary doctrine of international law, a common heritage of the European legal tradition. His school was completely devoted to the principles of international law and the rule of law as the linchpin of foreign policy of all civilized states that rejected force as a means of settling interstate disagreements and a tool of prevention of European clashes.
