EU’s Kallas warns of “autocratic alliance” challenging rules-based world order
European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas on Wednesday described China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea as an “autocratic alliance” challenging the rules-based international order. The leaders of these countries appeared together at a military parade in Beijing, signaling what Kallas called a direct challenge to the global system established on international rules.
“While Western leaders gather in diplomacy, an autocratic alliance is seeking a fast track to a new world order,” Kallas told reporters in Brussels, News.Az reports, citing Reuters.
She added: “Looking at President Xi standing alongside the leaders of Russia, Iran, and North Korea today, these aren’t just anti-Western optics: This is a direct challenge to the international system built on rules.”
Kallas’ comments come amid ongoing tensions between the EU and these nations, as Europe seeks to reinforce alliances and maintain a stable global framework based on established international norms.
