The West is undergoing an existential crisis – Zakharova

You can see what is going on inside the US and the Western world: a clash of ideologies, but no longer with external representatives, as during the Cold War, but inside these countries

Says a Russian foreign ministry official.

“This is no longer just a democratic struggle between two parties or three parties, but an existential crisis of these political systems from within. When people representing certain political movements are ready to annihilate their opponents – not to fight politically and then admit the victory of the one who won the election, but to truly annihilate them”, –  Zakharova said, speaking at the Diplomatic Academy in Moscow.

The diplomat gave examples of a culture of cancellation, the use of repressive mechanisms, arrests, political, financial, economic pressure, the rejection of the individual from society
