The reign of Obama is likely to overshadow such important for America periods as the era of Reagan or the White House of John Kennedy.
And if you think Obama loses points with each passing month in the international arena, the strategic view allows you to demonstrate the tectonic changes that buried the idea as the EU and the idea of a multipolar world in the version of the Kremlin.
Barack Obama is an example of “soft power” and policy based on the “Nash principle”. Not always winning is success. So in game theory is called type making game for two or more players, in which no participant can increase the gain by changing its strategy while other participants do not change strategies. This explains the political “neo-isolationist” America of the Obama era, against which the United States has made in the field of economy a tremendous start to a new orbit.
On 5 October representatives of the U.S., Japan and 10 countries of the Pacific coast on Monday in Atlanta, Georgia, reached final agreement on a Treaty on TRANS-Pacific partnership (Trans-Pacific Partnership, TPP), writes The Wall Street Journal. Together these countries control 40% of world trade. The agreement itself actually extends the current two decades, the Treaty NAFTA (between USA, Mexico and Canada). And though the U.S. Congress is still preparing to ratify the agreement (ratification is necessary for 2016), there is no doubt that this agreement is revolutionary and launches the final stage of the globalization era.
There is no doubt that the TPP agreement would strengthen and the dollar as the world reserve currency and as a monetary tool for all the participants of the new trade Union. But in fact, from this moment on, a number of large States to move inside the borders of one great state. Not surprising if in 10 years a citizen of Viet Nam can own real estate in Miami or to pay with your Bank card in Japan. The almost complete removal of tariff and financial barriers between these countries will allow much faster to implement as the investment and to transfer cutting-edge technology.
It is easy to see that we are witnessing the birth of some “United States of the Planet”, without the “childhood diseases”, which are still inherent to such a Union as EU. For example, there is no problem debtor States, the load of the single currency. Because a single currency is us dollar and it will only be used in international settlements. And the printing press is in one place – the USA. In addition, this transoceanic Union of the default of one of the parties is not everyone's. But the Obama revolution lies in the fact that in addition to General economic policy, we derived and common to all geopolitical decisions when States parties are in fact surrounded by the Pacific ocean on the perimeter and the corollary with each of them and a military Alliance. Surprisingly, Vietnam is also becoming a military ally of the United States. It is clear that the TPP is a counterbalance to China, which it and drown.
But Obama is in a hurry, you still need time to make the final chord of the new American revolution. In 2016 will be signed TTIP – the agreement on Transatlantic Trade and Investment partnership. Economic barriers between the EU and the US are relatively low not only because of long-standing membership in the world trade organization (WTO), but also because of recent agreements such as the European-American Agreement on open skies and the work of the Transatlantic economic Council. The European Commission argued that the conclusion of a transatlantic trade Pact could boost overall trade between the respective parties by as much as 50%. Respectively the GDP of all countries will increase over the decade by as much as 25% (!). But that's not all. Project TTIP the U.S. plans to distribute not only the EU but also to Eastern Europe. And the project “new silk road”, one of the branches of which pass through Ukraine and Poland, is suitable in order to close the circular link between Pacific trade Union and Transatlantic.
So think about it – the United States is developing encircling the planet trade and investment Union! The Union, dominated by financial and settlement system that uses mainly the us dollar. The Union, whose total GDP accounts for 80% of the entire GDP of the planet. And Obama is the initiator of this Union. And when in different countries screaming about the “weakness” of the Obama administration, his lack of foresight, understanding the new policy of the American administration, with respect spoke about the policy of a black President, which actually ended two wars on foreign soil and made an application for an absolutely new epoch – the epoch of the completion of globalization. Against this background, the orientation of Ukraine towards closer relations with the US is perfectly legitimate. This Union for Ukraine even more attractive than the EU, based on the contradictions in fiscal policy, where some countries earn, while others are spending. We can say that the US promote to the world a new model of state – state of the future. State – trading Confederation.
While in the middle East planned the Third World, and Russia has chosen the path of confrontation with the civilized world, the U.S. significantly increase its role at the expense of sound economic policy and geostrategy of global cooperation. Skillfully managing the economic and financial instruments that pushed the U.S. into its orbit of interests of some and push out others. 20 years from now? Will giant global Confederation and perhaps a monument to the American President Barack Obama.
