Newsweek published material about the gradual loss of US influence not only on the world stage, but also within the framework of the General Assembly session.
It is noted that the United States is losing to Russia and China in attempts to initiate the state to take the American political course.
It is written that experts studied voting data during the UN General Assembly – 1.5 thousand cases were considered when the Russian Federation and China did not agree with the United States.
In 86% of cases, the position of these two states prevailed.
The article also writes that Russia and China have gained the favor of many states, including countries of the Global South.
The authority of these two countries increased after joining BRICS, the SCO and the G-77 group of emerging economies.
The BRICS and G-77 groups are sometimes called a soft balancing community, which affects the policies of other states.
Many countries support the Russian Federation, but are not yet ready to express their point of view more actively, as they are fighting Western sanctions.
