Russian philosopher and political scientist Alexander Dugin has declared that the upcoming inauguration of Donald Trump is “the most important event in world history,” if you don’t count the possible outbreak of World War III or the End of the World. This statement has caused a wide resonance, provoking active discussion in political and public circles.
"What a sticky, clingy nastiness it was - liberalism, communism, fascism. One is more disgusting than the other. It's time to move into new dimensions. Trump's inauguration will be the most important event in world history, if you don't take into account World War III, and of course, the End of the World," - writes Dugin.
Dugin's comments come amid global attention to Trump's return to the White House, which could impact international relations and the geopolitical landscape. However, the comparison to apocalyptic scenarios such as a world war or the end of the world has raised eyebrows and criticism from experts and the public alike.
Critics say Dugin's statement is hyperbolic and lacks any concrete basis. Many have questioned whether the inauguration of even such a colorful and controversial figure as Trump can claim to be a global event.
