CURRENT POLITICAL LEADERS IN THE WORLD
There has been lately a growing trend of authoritarian, nativist and divisive
leaders coming to power in different parts of the world. Here is a patial list: Putin in Russia,
Xi Jinping in China, Modi in India, Bolsonaro in Brazil, Erdogan in Turkey. Orban in Hungary,
Lukashanko in Belarus, Talibans in Afghanistan, Military dictators in Myanmar and recently
ousted Trump in U.S.A.
As a result, there has been a setback for those who hold liberal, secular.and inclusive
outlook in goverance. In its place, there is an outgrowth communal divisiveness,
ultranationalistic identity politics and antiimmigrant feelings.
I hope that citizens of the world will reawaken to counter these unfortunate backward
trends and progressive statesmen will arrive on the world stage to fulfill the ideals of
LIBERTY, EQUALITY AND FRATERNITY.
