It has always been this way. Historically, Western and Eastern empires tended to confront one another only in distant regions, often in Africa or other far‑removed territories. Today, however, these dynamics have shifted. The West started conflict in Venezuela, and a few years earlier the East invaded Ukraine.
Yes, east europe have problem with neonazis. There are so many pictures, news and so on prepared by antifa groups and independent journalists, that’s everyone knows that.
Especially post east block countries have this problem. Russia, Ukraine, Slovakia and so on. In Poland we have some issues, but due to the fact, that so many polish citizens were killed, and death camps were build on polish ground, it’s kinda sad to be neonazi. But still, there are plenty of neonazis.
We can do it all day. Europe have big problem with neonazis, a lot of these groups are founded by very rich oligarch, and state, very often by other state that want’s to destabilize the country.
Using “clash of civilizations” rhetoric is classic racist trope. There is one hegemonic reality currently, and referring to “Eastern empires” is dog whistling in the same way.
It’s easy to see that during the cold war, we had east and west empires in a cold war.
Nowadays we have more powers, like UE, USA, BRICS, Japan and so on. But situation is still the same. We have big alliances that want more (i.e. USA attack on Venezuela or Russian attack on Ukraine, and way more of this in Africa and middle east).
There is one hegemonic power that has been doing imperialism for decades. They have by far the largest military presence across the globe, and they maintain currency hegemony over this long period as well. It is one empire, not empires in your “both sides” or “many sides” rhetoric. The EU and Japan et all are willing servants of this hegemonic order for most of this period. Millions have been killed by wars, interventions and economic mechanisms that serve to maintain this empire.
The capitalist empire has always been like this. You are comparing trade alliances to war mongering genocidal profiteering across the globe over decades. These are not even close to equivalent.
Just because soviet empire failed due to giving all the power to a small group of people, and after decades people become corrupted and ruined their own country, doesn’t mean that that only USA is bad.
Look for example what China is doing to the minorities, look what Russia did to the Chechnya, then read how many very very bad things are going on in the Africa.
USA ist just the most stable. Of course it’s imperialistic country, and they are responsible for very very bad things. USA is ruled by oligarch like Russia. The only reasons USA and west are in a way better situation, is because they were supporting human rights, they taxed oligarchs and created middle class. Right now in the USA they are backing up from that, they are replacing human rights and middle class with religion and nationalism, so they are more and more like russia. But with a better army, better budget, better intelligence, and better economy.
How this gonna end, i don’t know. Maybe revolution in the USA, that would be nice, also revolution in Russia would be nice, especially that Russia has very very big problem with oligarchs and exploitation of regular people.
Russia as it exists today is a creation of the US/NATO. Your western chauvinism runs so deep. The empire has been fighting any alternative to capitalism/fascism for decades, but you say these things.

It seems likely that further tensions may emerge.

In Ukraine it’s the same story.

It’s funny how you have skipped western empires.
