Easy to do. Western politicians are largely self interested
opportunistic thugs.
Most individual humans in The West with strong conscience and clear mind
--avoid-- politics at all costs - and so we collectively continue to pay
very high moral cost (society as a whole).
I am hopeful that whoever succeeds Russia after Putin has similar
foundations and principles of global balance of powers (at the very
least).

Because almost none of them hold to a moral foundation, or what they
themselves perceive as right and wrong. Look at Bernie Sellout Sanders -
a classic example - held some pro-statist "socialist" views etc, but
sold out "for the greater good" or some bullshit.
What a limp idiot!
