US “Asian NATO” Plan Doomed to Failure: Iranian Paper! (16.6.2023)

However, the U.S. plan to create a replica of the NATO in the Asia-Pacific region is doomed to failure, as “it has consequences and at the same time lacks backing from many regional Asian countries” and even NATO allies, such as France, the article added.

In the past, the article said, the U.S. attempt to create a replica of NATO in the Middle East had failed because the regional countries soon realized that it would bring instability to the region and decided to ensure their security by working together.

It warned that, as the U.S. hegemony diminishes, Washington “is playing dangerous games around the world” through seeking to provoke conflicts elsewhere instead of pursuing diplomatic paths.

The article concluded that no one will benefit from a NATO-like military alliance in Asia apart from the U.S., which is accustomed to reaping economic dividends from crises in different parts of the world.

As a young child, I used to accompany my father to the Tiverton Cricket Club Home Ground (during all kinds of weather) – situated on the outskirts of Tiverton (near the Rugby Ground) – where he used to cut the grass, ‘roll’ the ground and ‘mark-out’ the pitch!
