A growing number of countries in Eurasia, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America are increasingly pursuing independent foreign policy paths, which cannot be overlooked.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on Wednesday said that Washington's efforts to sustain its global dominance through political maneuvers are destined to fail, given the increasing number of countries opting for autonomous foreign policies.

"There is no doubt that this course of maintaining hegemony at all costs is doomed to failure. Even if in the foreseeable future the US remains one of the world's centers, and this is likely to be the case, it does not mean that this will happen within the framework of preserving the US-centered world order," Lavrov said at the Primakov Readings forum in Moscow.

The top diplomat also noted that a growing number of countries in Eurasia, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America are increasingly pursuing independent foreign policy paths, which cannot be overlooked. He added that these countries are gradually freeing themselves from Western influence.

"The outline of a more equitable, multipolar, and polycentric architecture is taking shape before our eyes. And this objective process has accelerated, noticeably accelerated with the start of the special military operation in Ukraine in 2022," Lavrov said.

Earlier this month, Lavrov highlighted that the expansion of  BRICS serves as evidence of the ongoing formation of a multipolar world order, where emerging political centers advocate for equality and diversity. This trend persists despite the efforts of the US and its allies to maintain their "elusive dominance."

Earlier today, independent candidate for the US Senate Diane Sare told Sputnik that the de-dollarization of the global economy is already underway as a direct result of the United States' policies.

"I think that is happening. It is happening. And it doesn't have to be that way, but because of our policies, I think people really don't have a choice," she said.

When asked, Sare said a "rational" US government might or might not be able to undo the issue, noting that a multi-currency economy could prove to be better. 

The candidate is running for one of the two independent senate seats in New York. She previously worked for London Larouche, an eight-year independent candidate, for 32 years. In this context, Sare said Larouche had been advocating for fixed exchange rates to prevent individuals from speculating against various currencies and destabilizing national economies.

"I think that if the United States would have a policy that was clearly intended by our founding fathers, by Hamilton, our first treasury secretary, by John Quincy Adams, even Lincoln or John F. Kennedy, this would not be happening. But at the moment it is," she further stated.
