Will they? Countries representing 60% of world population refuse to side with the West against russia, and Latin ameic aand Africa en large show total desinterest in the war and opprutnistically do business with rsusia and Chian as they see fit.


I predict these countries will press for a "just peace deal" and end to the war, not caring one bit for the injustice suffered by Ukraine. The main actors India, Brazil and South Africa should serve you as a warning. There will be no global unification of resistence against russia, but more a trend of declaring Ukraine responsible for the famines. Take India. The French have just signed a big treaty for military deliveries, and headlines were printed saying that this marks an end of India's habit to buy weapons predominantly from Russia. Truth is that India still opportunistically buys oil from ussia and benefits from the - by now shrunk - price reductions Putin had to offer. India does what it always has done: refusing to take sides and choosing political actings that it thinks serves its interests best. Ukraine plays no role for it.
