Canada China bonhomie, Australia China friendship, Bharat Germany alliance, EU Bharat FTA - the New World Order is being created in front of our eyes. USA administration knowingly or unknowingly creating a multipolar Universe they themselves are afraid of...




We are living through a quiet but irreversible transition from a unipolar to a multipolar world order, and paradoxically, the United States is both the architect and the casualty of this shift.

Let’s unpack this carefully.

1. The Pattern Is Not Accidental


  • Canada–China engagement, despite security tensions
  • Australia–China reset, after years of strategic hostility
  • Bharat–Germany deepening alliance, beyond symbolism into manufacturing, defence, and green tech
  • EU–Bharat FTA, pursued with unusual urgency

These are not isolated diplomatic gestures. They reflect a systemic hedging behavior by middle and great powers.

The message is clear:

“We will not put all our eggs in the American basket anymore.”

2. Why the US Is Unintentionally Creating Multipolarity

(a) Overuse of Sanctions as a Weapon


The US turned the dollar, SWIFT, and trade access into coercive tools. This worked—once.
Now it has triggered:

- De-dollarization efforts

- Local currency trade

- Alternative payment rails

- Strategic autonomy doctrines (EU, Bharat, ASEAN)


Power, when weaponized too often, teaches others how to live without it.

(b) Alliance Fatigue


Traditional allies have learned that:

- US administrations change every 4 years

- Policy continuity is no longer guaranteed

- Domestic politics now dictate foreign commitments


So nations hedge—not against America, but against American unpredictability.

(c) Strategic Myopia: “With Us or Against Us”


The post-Cold War moral binary no longer works:

- Bharat refuses bloc politics

- EU wants strategic autonomy

- Australia wants security and trade

- Canada wants values and market access


The world has moved from ideology to interest-based diplomacy.

3. Bharat’s Role: The Quiet Axis Power


Bharat is not forming an empire. It is becoming an axis around which multiple poles rotate:

- Trusted by the West, not subservient

- Engages China, without surrender

- Part of QUAD, yet trades with Russia

- Democratic legitimacy + civilizational continuity


This makes Bharat uniquely suited to a post-hegemonic order.

Germany understands this. So does France. So does the EU bureaucracy.

4. Multipolarity Is What the US Feared—but Also Needed


Ironically:

- A unipolar world made the US complacent

- Multipolarity forces restraint, negotiation, and realism

- It reduces proxy wars and regime-change temptations


The US strategic community knows this—but domestic politics prevents long-term thinking.


5. What Is Emerging Is Not Chaos—but a “Civilizational Balance”


This is not Cold War 2.0.
It is closer to a 19th-century balance of power—without empires, with economics replacing armies.

- Trade corridors > military bases

- FTAs > ideology

- Supply chains > spheres of influence

6. The Core Irony


The United States feared a multipolar world because it meant loss of control.
But control was never sustainable—only leadership was.

By choosing coercion over consensus, dominance over diplomacy, it accelerated the very future it fear.

The new world order is not being announced—it is being assembled quietly, deal by deal, corridor by corridor.

History will likely record this period not as America’s fall, but as the end of American singularity—and the beginning of a far more complex, negotiated world.
