The War of the network: the United States against the Eurasia First of all, it’s necessary to understand the nowadays world geo-strategic situation, so at last identify the moves that the major powers are doing on the world stage. The United States is struggling with one of the worse systemic crisis in their history. The collapse of the Berlin Wall, the aggression against Iraq, the steps of NATO to overtake the East, the disintegration of Yugoslavia, the political uncertainty and condescending towards Western interests by Gorbachev and Yeltsin before, then, for several years produced the illusion of a triumph given by unipolarity of the United States.

Along with Soros the ones who have spent efforts and investments like Rupert Murdoch, Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan, they influenced people as Martti Ahtisaari, James Lion, Morton Abramowitz, Louise Arbour, Mikhail Khodorkovsky and Thorvald Stoltenberg. This exhibitionistic concentrate of “soft” and “hard power” has been developed against the only Serbia, as it considered the State pivot of Russia in the Balkans.
