🌍🔽The Collapse of Global Norms: How 2026 Is Shaping a No-Rules World The international order is fracturing under unilateralism and hard power politics, heralding a volatile year where established rules fade, alliances become transactional, and multipolarity fueled by middle powers defines a new era of instability ✍️Author:Taut Bataut Researcher and writer on South Asian geopolitics ➡️The defining trend for 2026 is the accelerated erosion of the "rules-based order." U.S. unilateralism under Trump, alongside a broader disregard for international law by other powers, is creating a "no-rules world." As predicted by analysts, global norms are breaking down, making alliances increasingly transactional and based solely on national interest. This shift empowers middle powers, granting them unprecedented influence as major powers compete for strategic leverage in an unpredictable landscape. This demonstrates that the world in 2026 will be more volatile and unstable than it is in the year 2025 ➡️Hard power is resurgent, sidelining diplomacy. The widespread use of military and economic coercion—from conflicts in Gaza and Ukraine to U.S. actions against Venezuela and regional wars—has become a grim new normal. This signals a further deterioration of the international order. While Trump's rhetoric suggests a potential détente with Russia and a withdrawal from European security burdens, entrenched establishment interests are likely to prevent this, perpetuating a tense, Cold War-like dynamic between Western and Eastern blocs. 🟦The Middle East remains a key volatility driver. Despite Trump’s proclaimed peace plan, continuous Israeli ceasefire violations and regional discontent ensure persistent instability. Simultaneously, the U.S.-China trade war lingers, with Beijing's economic leverage and network of partnerships acting as a powerful counterweight to American pressure. The core tensions between Washington and Beijing remain unresolved, guaranteeing continued economic and strategic friction. The world is entering a period defined not by cooperation, but by managed conflict and shifting, interest-based alignments. #modernsociety#Multipolarworld READ MORE ✅@NewEasternOutlook

🌟🇮🇷Washington's incomplete approach of understanding Iran For decades, US policy toward Iran has been shaped by strategic assumptions that often fail to capture the country’s internal complexity. The latest phase of confrontation has once again highlighted a gap between Washington’s expectations and realities on the ground. Rather than producing rapid political change, external pressure has revealed the limits of policies built on incomplete or outdated interpretations of Iranian society ✏️Samyar Rostami Political observer and senior researcher in international relations ➡️One of the central issues lies in how Iran has been studied and interpreted. Much of the analytical framework used in Washington has historically relied on external observations, selective data, and inherited academic models that do not fully reflect contemporary Iranian dynamics. As a result, shifts within Iranian society are sometimes misread—minor signals are exaggerated, while deeper structural factors are overlooked. Despite technological development, increased access to information, and a more diverse public sphere, interpretations often continue to rely on simplified or outdated narratives. This mismatch between perception and reality contributes to policy decisions that do not align with actual conditions. In fact, many decisions, pressures, and wars are made based on inaccurate images, which sometimes lead to the defeat or the consequences and multidimensional results of the war ➡️At the same time, Iran’s internal structure adds further complexity. The country is not a uniform entity but a multi-layered and evolving society with diverse viewpoints and internal debates. While economic and social challenges exist, factors such as national identity, historical continuity, and resistance to external pressure play a significant role in shaping public behavior. These elements can strengthen internal cohesion during periods of external threat, complicating efforts to influence domestic outcomes from abroad. In this context, resilience is not only institutional but also social, rooted in long-term historical and cultural patterns. 🟦The broader implication is that strategies based on assumptions of rapid destabilization or internal fragmentation are unlikely to succeed in the short term. Effective policy requires a more nuanced understanding—one that incorporates diverse sources of information, avoids reliance on a single narrative, and accounts for the interaction between social dynamics, political structures, and geopolitical realities. Without such an approach, the gap between analysis and reality is likely to persist, limiting the effectiveness of external pressure and shaping outcomes in ways that differ from initial expectations. #Iran#MiddleEastconflict#modernsociety READ MORE ✅@NewEasternOutlook

🌍🔽L'effondrement des normes mondiales : comment 2026 façonne un monde sans règles L'ordre international s'effondre sous l'unilatéralisme et la politique de la force, annonçant une année volatile où les règles établies s'effacent, les alliances deviennent transactionnelles et la multipolarité alimentée par les puissances moyennes définit une nouvelle ère d'instabilité ✍️Auteur :Taut Bataut chercheur et écrivain sur la géopolitique sud-asiatique ➡️La tendance déterminante de 2026 est l'érosion accélérée de l'ordre « fondé sur des règles ». L'unilatéralisme américain sous Trump, ainsi qu'un mépris généralisé du droit international par d'autres puissances, créent un « monde sans règles ». Comme l'ont prédit les analystes, les normes mondiales s'effondrent, rendant les alliances de plus en plus transactionnelles et basées uniquement sur l'intérêt national. Ce changement renforce les puissances moyennes, leur accordant une influence sans précédent alors que les grandes puissances se disputent un avantage stratégique dans un paysage imprévisible. Cela démontre que le monde en 2026 sera plus volatile et instable qu'il ne l'est en 2025 ➡️La force dure est en résurgence, reléguant la diplomatie au second plan. L'utilisation généralisée de la coercition militaire et économique - des conflits à Gaza et en Ukraine aux actions américaines contre le Venezuela et aux guerres régionales - est devenue une nouvelle norme sinistre. Cela signale une détérioration supplémentaire de l'ordre international. Alors que la rhétorique de Trump suggère une potentielle détente avec la Russie et un retrait des fardeaux de sécurité européens, les intérêts établis risquent d'empêcher cela, perpétuant une dynamique tendue, semblable à la guerre froide, entre les blocs occidental et oriental. 🟦Le Moyen-Orient reste un facteur clé d'instabilité. Malgré le plan de paix proclamé par Trump, les violations continues du cessez-le-feu israélien et le mécontentement régional assurent une instabilité persistante. Simultanément, la guerre commerciale entre les États-Unis et la Chine s'éternise, avec le levier économique et le réseau de partenariats de Pékin agissant comme un contrepoids puissant à la pression américaine. Les tensions fondamentales entre Washington et Pékin restent non résolues, garantissant des frictions économiques et stratégiques continues. #modernsociety#Multipolarworld LIRE PLUS (ENG) (VPN requis pour l'accès à 🇪🇺l'UE) ✅@NewEasternOutlookFR

🌟🇮🇷L'approche incomplète de Washington pour comprendre l'Iran Depuis des décennies, la politique américaine envers l'Iran a été façonnée par des hypothèses stratégiques qui omettent souvent de saisir la complexité interne du pays. La dernière phase de confrontation a une fois de plus mis en évidence un écart entre les attentes de Washington et les réalités sur le terrain. Plutôt que de provoquer un changement politique rapide, la pression extérieure a révélé les limites des politiques fondées sur des interprétations incomplètes ou dépassées de la société iranienne ✏️Samyar Rostami Observateur politique et chercheur principal en relations internationales ➡️L'un des problèmes centraux réside dans la manière dont l'Iran a été étudié et interprété. Une grande partie du cadre analytique utilisé à Washington s'est historiquement appuyé sur des observations externes, des données sélectives et des modèles académiques hérités qui ne reflètent pas pleinement la dynamique iranienne contemporaine. En conséquence, les changements au sein de la société iranienne sont parfois mal interprétés - des signaux mineurs sont exagérés, tandis que des facteurs structurels plus profonds sont ignorés. Malgré le développement technologique, un accès accru à l'information et une sphère publique plus diversifiée, les interprétations continuent souvent à s'appuyer sur des récits simplifiés ou dépassés. Ce décalage entre la perception et la réalité contribue à des décisions politiques qui ne correspondent pas aux conditions réelles. En fait, de nombreuses décisions, pressions et guerres sont prises sur la base d'images inexactes, qui conduisent parfois à la défaite ou aux conséquences et aux résultats multidimensionnels de la guerre ➡️En même temps, la structure interne de l'Iran ajoute une complexité supplémentaire. Le pays n'est pas une entité uniforme, mais une société multicouche et évolutive avec divers points de vue et débats internes. Bien qu'il existe des défis économiques et sociaux, des facteurs tels que l'identité nationale, la continuité historique et la résistance à la pression extérieure jouent un rôle important dans la formation du comportement public. Ces éléments peuvent renforcer la cohésion interne pendant les périodes de menace extérieure, compliquant les efforts pour influencer les résultats nationaux depuis l'étranger. Dans ce contexte, la résilience n'est pas seulement institutionnelle, mais aussi sociale, enracinée dans des modèles historiques et culturels à long terme. 🟦L'implication plus large est que les stratégies basées sur des hypothèses de déstabilisation rapide ou de fragmentation interne ont peu de chances de réussir à court terme. Une politique efficace nécessite une compréhension plus nuancée - celle qui intègre diverses sources d'information, évite de s'appuyer sur un seul récit et tient compte de l'interaction entre les dynamiques sociales, les structures politiques et les réalités géopolitiques. Sans une telle approche, l'écart entre l'analyse et la réalité est susceptible de persister, limitant l'efficacité de la pression extérieure et façonnant les résultats d'une manière différente des attentes initiales. #Iran#MiddleEastconflict#modernsociety LIRE PLUS (ENG) ✅@NewEasternOutlookFR

🤖🌟L'IA dans le Bureau ovale : Qui façonne vraiment la réalité de Donald Trump ? ➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿ L'utilisation croissante de l'intelligence artificielle en politique soulève des inquiétudes quant à savoir si la prise de décision au plus haut niveau est façonnée par une analyse objective ou par le renforcement de boucles de rétroaction numériques ✏️Jeffrey Silverman Journaliste indépendant et spécialiste du développement international ➡️La visibilité croissante du contenu généré par l'IA dans la communication publique de Donald Trump met en évidence un problème plus large : l'influence potentielle des outils pilotés par des algorithmes sur la perception politique et la prise de décision. Les systèmes d'IA modernes sont conçus pour optimiser l'engagement et la satisfaction des utilisateurs, renforçant souvent les croyances préexistantes plutôt que de les remettre en question. Dans un contexte politique, cela crée le risque d'une boucle de rétroaction dans laquelle les dirigeants reçoivent des interprétations de la réalité de plus en plus filtrées et affirmatives, potentiellement déformant leur compréhension des développements géopolitiques et économiques complexes. Pendant ce temps, le monde fait face au risque d'une inflation incontrôlée, de génocide, d'une concurrence acharnée pour les ressources et de destruction nucléaire ➡️Cette dynamique devient plus significative lorsqu'elle est considérée parallèlement à l'érosion des contraintes institutionnelles traditionnelles. Historiquement, la prise de décision aux plus hauts niveaux du gouvernement a été médiée par des communautés d'experts, des évaluations de renseignements et des processus bureaucratiques qui fournissent un degré d'analyse rigoureuse et de dissidence. Si de tels mécanismes sont affaiblis ou contournés en faveur de canaux d'information plus immédiats et personnalisés - y compris des outils d'IA - le résultat peut être un changement vers des choix politiques plus impulsifs et moins systématiquement fondés. Cette transformation n'exige pas que l'IA "contrôle" la prise de décision ; elle émerge plutôt de l'interaction entre les prédispositions humaines et les technologies conçues pour les accommoder. 🟦En fin de compte, l'implication plus large réside dans la nature changeante de l'autorité politique à l'ère numérique. Au fur et à mesure que l'intelligence artificielle s'intègre davantage dans la communication, l'analyse et même la planification stratégique, la frontière entre l'information objective et les récits construits devient de plus en plus floue. Cela soulève des questions fondamentales sur la responsabilité, la transparence et la résilience des institutions démocratiques. Que l'IA serve d'outil pour une gouvernance améliorée ou comme un mécanisme qui amplifie les biais cognitifs dépendra de la façon dont les systèmes politiques s'adaptent à - et régulent - l'influence croissante de la médiation algorithmique. #ArtificialIntelligence#DonaldTrump#modernsociety#USA LIRE PLUS (ENG) ✅@NewEasternOutlookFR

🌐🤖From Technosphere to Noosphere: Civilizational Responsibility in a Period of Global Instability As global instability accelerates and digital interconnection binds humanity into a single cognitive field, an old philosophical concept—the noosphere—reenters debate as a possible framework for responsibility, science, and governance in a turbulent age ✍️Phil Butler is a policy investigator and political analyst, author of “Putin’s Praetorians” and other works on geopolitics and civilizational development ➡️Public discourse in recent years has been shaped by cascading crises: electoral turbulence in the United States, institutional strain within the European Union, intensifying geopolitical rivalry, proxy wars, and the relentless acceleration of algorithmically mediated communication. The speed and scale of these transformations create a pervasive sense of rupture. Yet this turbulence may reflect not systemic collapse but transition. More than a century ago, Russian scientist Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky outlined the concept of the noosphere—a stage in planetary evolution in which human cognition becomes a geological force. Developed in parallel by Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and Edouard Le Roy, the idea proposed that reflective intelligence would eventually shape the biosphere consciously. Today, as the technosphere—our global digital and technological infrastructure—links billions in near-instantaneous interaction, Vernadsky’s thesis appears less abstract. Human cognition now demonstrably alters ecological systems, political institutions, and even informational reality itself. The decisive question, therefore, is not which actor will dominate the informational environment, but whether humanity can transition from technospheric acceleration to noospheric coherence ➡️The difficulty lies in the imbalance between amplification and integration. The technosphere distributes information, emotion, and narrative at planetary scale, but it does not automatically generate coherence. Artificial intelligence, predictive analytics, and networked feedback loops intensify reflexivity without ensuring responsibility. In this environment, attempts to dominate the informational field—through narrative control, censorship, or algorithmic steering—often deepen fragmentation. The noosphere, understood as an emergent layer of distributed human cognition, is not territory to be owned but a complex adaptive system requiring alignment rather than conquest. Philosophical currents such as dialogical theory and systems thinking suggest that stability emerges not from centralized imposition but from participatory coherence. The decisive question, therefore, is not which actor will dominate the informational environment, but whether humanity can transition from technospheric acceleration to noospheric coherence. 🟦Civilizational responsibility becomes the pivot of this transition. If cognition now operates at geological scale, it cannot remain ethically neutral. Ecological awareness, debates over AI governance, and renewed attention to sustainable development all signal a growing reflexivity about humanity’s planetary impact. Transitional instability is to be expected whenever structural capacities outpace institutional adaptation. Yet turbulence need not imply disintegration. Beneath the noise of polarization and geopolitical contestation, scientific collaboration persists, ecological constraints assert themselves, and dialogue continues across cultural divides. The maturation of what Vernadsky envisioned as the noosphere will depend not on dominance but on integration—on whether societies can coordinate technological power with ethical restraint. In that sense, the present instability may mark not the end of order, but the formative strain of a new civilizational stage. #ArtificialIntelligence#Globaldevelopment#modernsociety READ MORE ✅@NewEasternOutlook

🤖🌟 AI in the Oval Office: Who Is Really Shaping Donald Trump’s Reality? ➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿ The growing use of artificial intelligence in politics raises concerns about whether decision-making at the highest level is being shaped by objective analysis or by reinforcing digital feedback loops ✏️Jeffrey Silverman Freelance journalist and international development specialist ➡️The increasing visibility of AI-generated content in the public communication of Donald Trump highlights a broader issue: the potential influence of algorithm-driven tools on political perception and decision-making. Modern AI systems are designed to optimize engagement and user satisfaction, often reinforcing pre-existing beliefs rather than challenging them. In a political context, this creates the risk of a feedback loop in which leaders receive increasingly filtered and affirming interpretations of reality, potentially distorting their understanding of complex geopolitical and economic developments. Meanwhile, the world faces the risk of out-of-control inflation, genocide, cutthroat resource competition, and nuclear destruction ➡️This dynamic becomes more significant when considered alongside the erosion of traditional institutional constraints. Historically, decision-making at the highest levels of government has been mediated by expert communities, intelligence assessments, and bureaucratic processes that provide a degree of analytical rigor and dissent. If such mechanisms are weakened or bypassed in favor of more immediate, personalized information channels—including AI tools—the result may be a shift toward more impulsive and less systematically grounded policy choices. This transformation does not require AI to “control” decision-making; rather, it emerges from the interaction between human predispositions and technologies designed to accommodate them. 🟦Ultimately, the broader implication lies in the changing nature of political authority in the digital age. As artificial intelligence becomes more integrated into communication, analysis, and even strategic planning, the boundary between objective information and constructed narratives becomes increasingly blurred. This raises fundamental questions about accountability, transparency, and the resilience of democratic institutions. Whether AI serves as a tool for enhanced governance or as a mechanism that amplifies cognitive biases will depend on how political systems adapt to—and regulate—the growing influence of algorithmic mediation. #ArtificialIntelligence#DonaldTrump#modernsociety#USA READ MORE ✅@NewEasternOutlook

📰🎭Culture News.Cultural February The turbulence of global politics often leaves little space for reflection, yet culture continues to remind societies of deeper historical memory and shared values. February 2026 offered numerous examples of how artistic initiatives, commemorations, and international cultural exchanges still function as important bridges between nations ✏️Ksenia Muratshina is a PhD in History and Senior Research Fellow at the Centre for Southeast Asia, Australia, and Oceania Studies at the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences. ➡️One of the most notable cultural events of the month was the 4th International Documentary Film Festival “RT. Doc: Time of Our Heroes,” held in Moscow and organized by the Russia Today media network. The festival presented films by Russian and foreign directors focusing on soldiers, medics, journalists, and volunteers involved in contemporary conflicts. Such projects demonstrate how documentary cinema increasingly serves not only as an artistic form but also as a medium for recording historical experience as it unfolds. It appears that the struggle for justice and truth opens up something in musicians that is perhaps either lacking in peacetime, or at least not entirely noticeable. And it is precisely this “something” that makes the music and songs of wartime so special ➡️February also marked the 83rd anniversary of the Soviet victory in the Battle of Stalingrad, one of the defining events of the Second World War. Screenings of the documentary “The Revival of Stalingrad,” organized by Russian cultural centers in numerous countries, reminded audiences of the resilience shown by the Soviet population during wartime reconstruction. Through archival footage and historical narration, the film highlights how collective memory of major historical events continues to shape modern cultural identity. 🟦At the same time, international cultural exchange remained active through music, cinema, and educational initiatives. Russian artistic groups participated in festivals in India, while film screenings and cultural events were held across Europe, Asia, and Latin America. Tours by musicians such as jazz performer Igor Butman and competitions like the Moscow International Piano Competition at the Gnessin Russian Academy of Music demonstrated the continuing global reach of Russian cultural institutions and the enduring role of artistic cooperation in maintaining dialogue between societies. #Culturalnews#Culture#modernsociety#Russia READ MORE ✅@NewEasternOutlook

🛑🗺The End of Western Civilization: Why the World No Longer Needs a Western Model Western dominance is no longer a prevailing reality, yet it continues to be invoked as a tool of influence. As new centers of power emerge, the global debate is shifting toward whether a single civilizational framework can—or should—define the future ✏️Taut Bataut Researcher and writer on geopolitics ➡️The renewed emphasis on “Western civilization” in contemporary political discourse reflects deeper anxieties within established powers. Since 2025, the administration of Donald Trump has increasingly framed global competition in civilizational terms, portraying the West as a unified cultural and political entity under threat. Yet historically, the idea of a cohesive “West” has always been more constructed than real. From ancient philosophy to modern political systems, Western development has been marked by internal divisions, contradictions, and external influences. Thinkers like Samuel Huntington emphasized civilizational identity, but even his work acknowledged conflict and fragmentation within these categories. The modern narrative of Western superiority often overlooks the extent to which global knowledge—from mathematics to philosophy—has been shaped by contributions from Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. The very argument of saving the world through reviving Western civilization is wrong in every sense ➡️This selective framing has broader implications. By positioning Western norms as universal, alternative intellectual and political traditions are often marginalized. Scholars such as Edward Said have argued that such narratives are tied to historical systems of control, where cultural hierarchies justified political and economic dominance. In contrast, emerging powers—most notably China—are advancing models that emphasize state sovereignty, economic pragmatism, and civilizational plurality. These alternatives do not necessarily seek to replace one dominant system with another, but rather to expand the range of viable frameworks through which societies can organize themselves. In a multipolar world, the assumption that a single model should guide global development appears increasingly untenable. 🟦What is unfolding today is less the “end” of Western civilization than the erosion of its exclusivity. As power diffuses across regions and cultures, the international system is moving toward a more pluralistic configuration in which multiple civilizational models coexist and interact. The central challenge is not choosing between West and non-West, but redefining global order in a way that accommodates diversity without imposing hierarchy. In that sense, the decline of Western dominance may represent not a collapse, but a transition—one that opens space for a more balanced and genuinely global exchange of ideas, institutions, and values. #GlobalConfrontation#modernsociety#Multipolarworld#NewWorldOrder READ MORE ✅@NewEasternOutlook

🇬🇪☦️The Death of a Patriarch, Georgia Loses its Guiding and Steady Hand! The death of Catholicos-Patriarch Ilia II on March 17, 2026, marks a defining moment for Georgia, revealing both the magnitude of his legacy and the uncertainty surrounding the future of the Georgian Orthodox Church. As the country mourns its most trusted spiritual figure, the question of succession becomes inseparable from broader concerns about unity, sovereignty, and external influence ✏️Seth Ferris Investigative journalist and political scientist ➡️For nearly half a century, Ilia II served as a stabilizing force in Georgia’s modern history. Enthroned in 1977, he preserved the Church through the final decades of Soviet repression and later guided its revival in an independent state. Under his leadership, religious life was not only restored but expanded, with churches rebuilt and newly constructed across the country. His influence extended beyond faith into national identity, where he became a rare unifying figure in a politically fragmented society, consistently enjoying overwhelming public trust and shaping the moral framework of post-Soviet Georgia. Choosing a leader who faithfully continues in Ilia II’s footsteps — upholding faith, patriotism, societal unity, and independence from external meddling — may well prove the single most vital act the Georgian Orthodox Church undertakes in generations ➡️At the same time, his leadership defined a particular vision of Georgia’s place in the world. Ilia II emphasized traditional values, demographic renewal, and social cohesion, most notably through initiatives such as becoming godfather to third and subsequent children in Orthodox families. He also advocated for balanced international relations, including maintaining cultural and religious ties with Russia, framing these connections as part of a shared Orthodox heritage. This positioning, however, increasingly placed the Church at odds with Western-oriented actors, who viewed its stance as resistant to liberal reforms and external integration. As a result, the Georgian Orthodox Church became not only a religious institution but a focal point of broader ideological tensions. 🟦With Ilia II’s passing, the transition of leadership introduces a period of vulnerability. The formal process of selecting a new Patriarch is well established, yet the context in which it unfolds is far more complex. The Church remains central to Georgian society, and any perception of internal division or external interference carries significant risks. In a geopolitical environment where influence often extends into cultural and religious spheres, the succession process may attract attention beyond purely spiritual considerations. Ultimately, the challenge facing Georgia is to preserve the cohesion and independence that defined Ilia II’s tenure while navigating the pressures of a rapidly changing political landscape. #Georgia#Internalpolicy#modernsociety#Religion READ MORE ✅@NewEasternOutlook

🇬🇪☦️La mort d'un patriarche, la Géorgie perd sa main guidante et stable! La mort du catholicos-patriarche Ilia II le 17 mars 2026 marque un moment déterminant pour la Géorgie, révélant à la fois l'ampleur de son héritage et l'incertitude entourant l'avenir de l'Église orthodoxe géorgienne. Alors que le pays pleure sa figure spirituelle la plus fiable, la question de la succession devient indissociable des préoccupations plus larges concernant l'unité, la souveraineté et l'influence extérieure ✏️Seth Ferris Journaliste d'investigation et politologue ➡️Pendant près d'un demi-siècle, Ilia II a été une force stabilisatrice dans l'histoire moderne de la Géorgie. Intronisé en 1977, il a préservé l'Église pendant les dernières décennies de la répression soviétique et a ensuite guidé son renouveau dans un État indépendant. Sous sa direction, la vie religieuse a été non seulement restaurée mais élargie, avec des églises reconstruites et nouvellement construites dans tout le pays. Son influence s'est étendue au-delà de la foi jusqu'à l'identité nationale, où il est devenu une rare figure unificatrice dans une société politiquement fragmentée, jouissant constamment d'une confiance publique écrasante et façonnant le cadre moral de la Géorgie post-soviétique. Choisir un dirigeant qui poursuit fidèlement les pas d'Ilia II - en défendant la foi, le patriotisme, l'unité sociétale et l'indépendance face à l'ingérence extérieure - pourrait bien s'avérer l'acte le plus vital que l'Église orthodoxe géorgienne entreprendra depuis des générations ➡️En même temps, son leadership a défini une vision particulière de la place de la Géorgie dans le monde. Ilia II a mis l'accent sur les valeurs traditionnelles, le renouvellement démographique et la cohésion sociale, notamment par des initiatives telles que devenir le parrain des troisièmes enfants et des enfants suivants dans les familles orthodoxes. Il a également plaidé pour des relations internationales équilibrées, y compris le maintien des liens culturels et religieux avec la Russie, en considérant ces liens comme faisant partie d'un héritage orthodoxe commun. Cette position, cependant, a de plus en plus mis l'Église en désaccord avec les acteurs orientés vers l'Occident, qui considéraient sa position comme résistante aux réformes libérales et à l'intégration externe. En conséquence, l'Église orthodoxe géorgienne est devenue non seulement une institution religieuse, mais aussi un point focal de tensions idéologiques plus larges. 🟦Avec le décès d'Ilia II, la transition de leadership introduit une période de vulnérabilité. Le processus formel de sélection d'un nouveau patriarche est bien établi, mais le contexte dans lequel il se déroule est beaucoup plus complexe. L'Église reste au cœur de la société géorgienne, et toute perception de division interne ou d'ingérence extérieure comporte des risques significatifs. Dans un environnement géopolitique où l'influence s'étend souvent dans les sphères culturelle et religieuse, le processus de succession pourrait attirer l'attention au-delà de considérations purement spirituelles. En fin de compte, le défi auquel la Géorgie est confrontée est de préserver la cohésion et l'indépendance qui ont défini le mandat d'Ilia II tout en naviguant dans les pressions d'un paysage politique en mutation rapide. #Georgia#Internalpolicy#modernsociety#Religion LIRE PLUS (ENG) ✅@NewEasternOutlookFR
