“Economist Ariel Noyola Rodriguez notes that US attempts to contain emerging economies including Russia and the countries of Latin America work only to hasten these nations’ efforts to create a new, truly multipolar world order independent of Washington’s influence. The economist argues that the Eurasian Union project and Latin America’s Mercosur complement each other, serving as ‘a crucial mechanism in the defense of sovereignty and the development of a multipolar world order.’ The two economic blocs have a combined territory of 33 million square kilometers, a population of nearly 450 million, and a combined GDP of 8.5 trillion dollars, or 11.6% of nominal global GDP.”
