Promise?When Ukraine loses the war.
German people: “wait, what’s the difference?”
(In German, “wenn” is used both for “when” and for “if”, and the distinction isn’t always super clear depending on the context)

A VOTE FOR BART IS A VOTE FOR ANARCHY
They will lose, and no it won’t
It depends on how you define “the end of hegemony”. The first important imperialist war lost against the “BRICS” could very well be treated historically as a good chronological starting point of the change in global hegemony (which is a progressive process with a gray barrier)
Not even? I mean if Ukraine loses then ukraine loses, ukraine losing for them means de facto accepting SOME type of security arrangement with Russia that doesn’t involve expanding NATO closer and closer to their borders, or at least not through Ukraine.
The west still has overwhelming economic power and influence. “End of western hegemony”? Over what? Over Ukraine? Well not over what’s left of it.
Over the balkans? Maybe.
Over the world? Definitely not the end, in fact I expect some adventurism as overcompensation.
NATO losing to Russia in Ukraine, and to the Houthis in the Gulf of Aden, will send a message to a lot of neutral countries that (1) NATO can’t / won’t protect you anymore, and (2) you can push back against NATO and win or at least gain concessions. NATO will still be the single largest military bloc in the world, but they’ll actually have to negotiate, maybe even compromise.
