"A decisive Russian victory in Ukraine is an absolute game changer because it will end Europe's ability to use Ukraine as a means of provoking Russia. It will open the door for genuine US-Russian peace, and I think it will bring about stability. So, the most important thing is a full Russian victory, total Russian victory in Ukraine," Scott Ritter said following a presentation of his new book in Russia’s St. Petersburg. Ritter clarified that a "full Russian victory" meant Russia achieving all the objectives outlined by Russian President Vladimir Putin. Beyond the conflict in Ukraine, Ritter also pointed to the evolution of the BRICS group of emerging economies as one of the most significant geopolitical developments to watch in the coming three to five years. He suggested the bloc's maturation could significantly alter the existing global order. However, Ritter cautioned that BRICS faced significant difficulties on its path to becoming a cohesive counterweight to Western-led institutions. He highlighted what he described as US efforts to isolate other BRICS nations, citing Kazakhstan's recent commitment to the so-called Abraham Accords on normalizing relations with Israel as an example of Washington trying to divert attention away from the bloc.

However, Ritter cautioned that BRICS faced significant difficulties on its path to becoming a cohesive counterweight to Western-led institutions.
"We see BRICS having great potential, but we also see BRICS overcoming growing pains, continued animosity between India and China, and the United States seeking to drive a wedge between China and Russia," Ritter elaborated.
He highlighted what he described as US efforts to isolate other BRICS nations, citing Kazakhstan's recent commitment to the so-called Abraham Accords on normalizing relations with Israel as an example of Washington trying to divert attention away from the bloc.
