Extract

I see this moment as much more than a backlash but as the result of many factors, the greatest being a long-term consequence of exclusion in the international system. Imagine when I started my career in 1990—so you were closer to halfway between 1945 and 2045—you said to people: let us imagine the world of 2045 being run by the victors of World War II, because that is what the UN Security Council is with minor adjustments. That would be like saying in 1945: you are going to be run by the Great Powers of 1845.
