The West Strongly Determined to Conquer Whole World

Well-known philosopher warns Russia of becoming a clerical-police state

Alexander  Zinovyev said in his exclusive interview to the Agency of Political News: “It stands the reason that a social forecast is meant not for tomorrow, not even for a month or a year of the nearest future. A social forecast is meant for a whole historic era. First and foremost, I will talk about the 21st century, about its major peculiarity. To put it short, the major phenomenon of the current century is the global war, which is called globalization. This war is already on: the Cold War stage is gone, while September 11th of 2001 was the start of the new, Hot War stage. This war is waged by the united West, which wants to conquer the entire humanity and to establish its global reign. However, the West does so not because of its stupidity or sick intentions. The West does so due to the historic necessity. Without this war, the West can not survive or preserve the level, at which its society lives.”

Zinovyev believes that the basic opponents of the Western supersociety are: the Islamic world, and the Asian communism with China at the head. “The war against the Islamic world is waged under the disguise of the need to fight with the international terrorism. A military campaign is about to start in Iraq; other Muslim countries are likely to be attacked in the future as well. If the West is through with them, there will definitely be a fight with China.”

“Speaking of the situation with Russia. Russia capitulated in front of the West by the end of the 20th century. The anti-communist coup that took place during Mikhail Gorbachev and Boris Yeltsin’s era was legalized . The Post-Soviet social system has been formed. This system is going to be present in the country for a very long period of time. At least, there will not be any changes there in the nearest future. There are no people in Russia at the moment, who would be capable of changing this system. The majority of the Russian people do not mind this system, although a lot of them acknowledge that it makes Russia degrade in every way.”

Alexander Zinovyev is certain that Russia becomes an obedient tool for the West: “This process will continue in 2003, for it is good for those at power. Their financial position becomes better and better, their obligations are not burdensome, they feel absolutely fine from the political point of view. That is why, they will do their damnedest, if someone tries to change the situation. Even if they try to change something themselves, the West, the USA will show them their place immediately.”

What does Alexander Zinovyev think of Russia’s way in the nearest future? He is certain that Russia’s most probable evolution way is to strengthen its state power, the presidential administration, first and foremost. Zinovyev believes that it is vital to strengthen the influence of the Orthodox religion, which runs for the role of the state ideology. “On the whole, Russia becomes a clerical-police state. This is its perspective for the new year. I do not foresee any fundamental deviations from this tendency in the nearest future, the coming parliamentary elections are not going to change anything. Even if something incredible happens, if communists get the majority of seats in the parliament, the State Duma will remain an obedient tool  in the hands of the presidential power. If communists dare to say something, they will be destroyed.”

Speaking about the problem of globalization, Alexander Zinovyev stated that the way, which the humanity stepped on at the end of the 20th century, was a disastrous way to go for a lot of nations of the planet, including several Western countries. “However, we can witness the anti-globalization protest now too. One of its forms is what is called the world terrorism. In addition to that, there is the anti-globalist movement, which also becomes the anti-American one.  This movement is not organized very well yet. It does not have either a single center or a clear ideology. Nevertheless, it has a future to make, which means that the movement will develop and grow next year. I think that the anti-globalist movement will become a lot stronger in 2003. It will be able to affect the process of the world evolution. I mean evolution, not revolution. Revolutions are out of the question.”
