Trump's Greenland Demand, Carney's Speech Signal New World Order Shift

  • Donald Trump's demand for Greenland exposed the pretense of America as a benevolent hegemon, leading to a potential shift in global power dynamics.
  • Canadian Premier Mark Carney declared the 'rules-based international order' dead, advocating for a new alliance of 'Middle Powers' and criticizing the system of intensifying great power rivalry.
  • Trump's Greenland demand in 2026, following global chaos in 2025, prompted European nations like France, Germany, and Denmark to prepare for war, challenging NATO unity.
  • India, China, and Brazil offloaded $194 billion in US treasuries, and central banks traded dollars for gold after the US blocked Russia from the global financial system, signaling de-dollarization.
  • The 2025 SCO Summit established the SCO Development Bank, and RBI proposed linking BRICS digital currencies, further reducing reliance on the US dollar and challenging US-led financial institutions.

Why It Matters: Trump's actions and Carney's declaration accelerate the transition to a multipolar world order, challenging US hegemony.
