The most important nation in South America could be damaged up into 5 statelets beneath a plan floated on social media
Austrian economist Gunther Fehlinger has known as for Brazil to be divided up into 5 completely different states over its partnership with Russia within the BRICS group, in line with a submit on X (previously Twitter) on Friday.
Fehlinger, whose profile describes him as “Chair of European Committee for NATO Enlargement for Kosovo, Ukraine, Bosnia, Austria, Moldova, Eire, Georgia,” couched his calls for in an attraction to “the folks of Brazil,” insisting they may solely be free by “dismantling the Socialist Genocidal BRICS Ally of Russia” – and that they’d been misled by Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.
Brazil needs to be damaged up “into 5 new higher free states who can be a part of NATO, OECD, [and] Mercosur,” the economist declared, appending the hashtags “#ExBrazil” and “#FehlingerDoctrine.”
The Austrian’s proposed rump states are to be known as “Individuals’s Republic of the Amazonia,” “Nordeste,” “São Paulo,” “Sul,” and “Final Seven Brazilian States.” It isn’t clear what rationale Fehlinger used to attract the strains, or why the seven states are lumped into one uncreatively-titled mass beneath the outdated Brazilian flag.
The “Fehlinger doctrine” seems to mandate balkanization as punishment for transgression towards NATO’s oft-cited rules-based worldwide order, because the economist additionally posted a picture of Russia damaged up into over a dozen mini-states, every with their very own made-up flag, alongside textual content proclaiming “Freedom to captive nations in Russia.”
“Dismantling the simply punishment for Genocide,” he wrote above the colourful fantasy map.
Responses to the plan from precise Brazilians weren’t form, with many together with profanity and revulsion towards any affiliation with NATO or the “little piece of European scum” talking for it.
One consumer threatened to dismantle Austria “once more” if Fehlinger made a critical try to sic NATO on his nation, apparently referring to the destruction of the Austro-Hungarian Empire post-World Battle I.
Brazil was one of many founding members of Mercosur at its institution in 1990, and has been in talks to hitch the OECD since final 12 months.
Whereas NATO is nominally the North Atlantic Treaty Group, this has not stopped its most fervent supporters from making an attempt to broaden its boundaries far past Russia’s doorstep. The bloc earlier this 12 months publicly weighed opening a liaison workplace in Japan, which might have been its first outpost within the area – although member state France reportedly vetoed the thought, which confronted strenuous opposition from China.
Nevertheless, NATO counts a number of different regional blocs as de facto companions, from ECOWAS in Africa to the Group of American States within the Western Hemisphere. In the meantime, the rising affect of BRICS – dozens of countries have reportedly utilized to hitch the financial partnership – is commonly cited as a menace to the US-led unipolar world.
