/ world today news/ The US recognized the loss of support from a number of influential countries. American intelligence notes that a number of influential countries, including Brazil, Egypt, India and Pakistan, are reluctant to support Washington in the confrontation with Moscow and Beijing, according to an article published in the Washington Post:.
As the publication notes, US President Joe Biden’s global agenda faces serious challenges in light of the fact that developing countries are trying to stay out of the growing confrontation between the US, Russia and China, and in some cases are using this rivalry for their own purposes. The publication clarifies that the relevant assessments of the US intelligence services are given in secret documents that got into social networks as a result of leaking information.
The material emphasizes that Brazil, Egypt, India and Pakistan are unwilling to unequivocally support one country or another in an era when America is no longer the undisputed superpower. US intelligence agencies believe the regional powers want to stay out of the way in light of the rivalry between Washington, Moscow and Beijing. It also noted that Russia has demonstrated an ability to fend off Western pressure.
According to the publication, the data obtained by US intelligence shows that Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar spoke out in March against the implementation of Western demands at the expense of relations with Beijing. She has emphasized in a memorandum that cooperation with China is strategic for Pakistan. According to the American side, in February, Pakistani Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif consulted with his subordinate on the issue of the anti-Russian resolution of the UN General Assembly. During the discussion, one of Sharif’s aides said that supporting the resolution would hinder negotiations with the Russian Federation on trade and energy issues. Ultimately, Pakistan will abstain from voting on the resolution.
The article states that India also seems to avoid choosing sides between Washington and Moscow. According to American intelligence, the National Security Adviser to the Prime Minister of India, Ajit Doval, in a meeting with the Secretary of the Russian Security Council, Nikolai Patrushev, expressed New Delhi’s readiness to support Moscow on international platforms. Doval further noted that India will not deviate from the principled position it has adhered to in the past and will not support the said anti-Russian resolution in the UN General Assembly.
According to sources in the US Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the countries of Central Asia are looking to take advantage of the rivalry between the US, Russia and China. According to them, these republics want to work with whoever offers the fastest benefit, which is mostly China. The publication notes that a number of Asian, African and Latin American countries expect to act as a diplomatic bridge between the three rivals.
The article said Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva had angered NATO countries by suggesting they were prolonging the conflict in Ukraine by supplying arms to Kiev, and also made his settlement proposals. The “Washington Post” also cited versions of American intelligence, according to which Egypt had previously intended to supply missiles to Russia, but later, apparently, succumbed to American pressure and postponed this deal.
