Will there be war in Russia in 2017? Now the situation on the world stage is quite tense. In addition, sanctions against Russia and the rejection of our country’s policies by other states are alarming.

Now the situation on the world stage is quite tense. In addition, sanctions against Russia and the rejection of our country’s policies by other states are alarming. Many people are concerned with the questions: “Will it be possible to maintain peaceful relations with other countries in the coming 2017? Will the sky above still be clear? Such questions began to arise a long time ago, since the Cold War, but now they are becoming especially acute.

The situation within the country

Scientists have concluded that many events occur more than once, but are repeated many times. They believe that the bloodshed that happened 100 years ago could happen again. As in ancient times, there will be a lot of victims and a crisis will occur in all areas of activity. A series of unpleasant events will lead to the complete decline of Russia.

Other historians agree that a revolution can happen, but argue that it will only affect certain groups of the population. The so-called "elite". The common people will remain on the sidelines and this will not affect them. Unless only a number of citizens will experience financial difficulties due to the economic crisis, which is inevitable after such phenomena.

But most scientists agree that no unpleasant events will happen in Russia in 2017. On the contrary, they are confident that the country’s economy will improve and the standard of living will become much higher. Our country will rise to a new stage in its development and, most likely, this statement is closest to the truth.

External environment

For a long time, the United States was ahead of other countries in many indicators and occupied a leading position. But times are changing. Our country, the main competitor of the States, has come forward. The United States does not tolerate the superiority of other states, especially Russia. It is obvious that the North American country is trying by hook or by crook to regain its former positions. The United States wants to suppress the authority of our country and is doing everything possible to do this. So far, all her attempts have affected our economy, as well as the social sphere. But how long will this tyranny last? And won't it turn into another form, the form of military action? Many Russians are worried about this.

Will there be war in Russia in 2017? What did famous clairvoyants predict for us?

1. Prediction of Paisius. Paisius, an ancient Greek clairvoyant, said that confrontation between Russia and Turkey is inevitable. The predictor did not name the exact time of the conflict. But now the situation in the Mediterranean comes to mind.
2. The well-known Vanga mentioned the Third World War. Scientists who deciphered her predictions claim that she was referring to the turbulent situation in Syria. The prophetess said that it was the Syrian conflict that would mark the beginning of a new war. In addition, Vanga argued that our country would be able to stop the storm and put an end to hostilities. Moreover, after these events, according to the clairvoyant, Russia will take a leading position.
3. The predictions of the Athonite elders are no less interesting. They also predicted that Russia would act as a savior in a military conflict and emerge victorious from all troubles.

Despite all the optimism of these predictions, I want to believe in a peaceful outcome. It will be better if all problems are resolved diplomatically and no one’s blood is shed.

Many people ask themselves the question: when will the third world war begin, and is this really a real prospect, and not the fiction of science fiction writers? To answer this question we need to look at history.

The reasons that led the world to two world wars and the current situation in the world

To understand whether a third world war is possible, we need to analyze the reasons that led to the outbreak of the first two world wars.

• The First World War was fought over spheres of influence in Europe and for colonies, which were not enough for everyone;
• The Second World War was a continuation of the First and began as a consequence of the policies of Hitler, who came to power by skillfully playing on the thirst for revenge of the losing German people, adding here his theory of the exclusivity of the Aryan race.

The results of the war are the same in all cases:

1. Famine and destruction;
2. Epidemics and unsanitary conditions;
3. Tens of millions of killed and maimed soldiers and civilians;
4. Civil conflicts;
5. Looting and banditry.

As a result, post-war devastation sets nations back decades in development.

The “pendulum” theory in the light of recent events and the crusades

Based on the theory of the pendulum, one can make disappointing predictions about the Third World War. In the Middle Ages, immigrants from African countries (the so-called “Moors”) captured Spain, from where they carried out devastating raids on European countries for many years. The pendulum swung, and the Moors left Europe, and the Europeans turned Africa into a deposit of useful resources, completely unconcerned with the needs of the common population.

If we turn to history, we can see the analogy of the crusaders with modern “peacekeepers,” who again strive for Africa, ostensibly in the name of high ideals, although the real goal is oil.

Does this mean that World War III is inevitable? Most likely not. Major world powers with nuclear potential are a kind of guarantor of peace on earth. Only a madman, knowing what nuclear weapons are capable of, is capable of unleashing a global conflict that will lead to the disappearance of at least 90 percent of the world's population. Disasters at nuclear power plants clearly demonstrated what the atom is capable of.

Since wars have plagued humanity throughout the history of its existence, military conflicts in the “hot spots” of the planet are inevitable. Their main goal has always been and will be the benefit that politicians and corporations can derive from it. But since after the third world war there will be practically no people left on earth, the economy will be completely destroyed and money will lose its value, the “powers of this world” will not allow this.

Predictions about World War III

The likelihood of war, according to modern forecasters, is not at all insignificant. Every year another “prophet” appears, who not only draws the scenario of the Third World War, but also names the exact date of its beginning. Creepy visions are voiced in which fire pours onto the ground and water turns into poison. The start date of the terrible conflict is constantly being postponed, so even the most superstitious citizens have stopped believing in these “prophecies.”

The schemers' predictions are so vague that almost any conflict in the world can be associated with the beginning of the 3rd World War. With the escalation of the conflict in Baghdad, when oil was burning and American tanks were rushing into battle, the number of scammers wanting to make money on people's superstitions increased exponentially.

However, in all the predictions one can trace the same idea: humanity will have a choice, and it will depend on this whether complete extermination or a happy future awaits us.

The Third World War, prophecies of soothsayers of the past and present

Predictions of famous soothsayers of the past and present about what the new world war will be like differ from each other in dates and possible options for the development of further events. Internet with various quotes that can be interpreted in any way you like. Recent events in the Donbass and the escalation of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine have provoked rumors that the third world war is already beginning, and there are fierce debates on the Internet about who will win it. The predictions of Vanga, Nostradamus and other similar “soothsayers” have become more popular than ever.

Vanga's warnings frighten us with a large-scale global conflict on religious grounds, which should develop into a massive internecine war. Events in the East can be interpreted as the beginning of this conflict, although this region has never been stable and similar conflicts were constantly fought there. Vanga also pointed out that natural disasters around the world will become more frequent, and the consequences of this war will be felt by her children, that is, our generation. Despite the large number of coincidences in Vanga’s predictions, you should not believe in them unconditionally.

Matrona of Moscow's predictions about whether there will be a Third World War are unclear. The saint claimed that there would be no battle, and the number of dead would be enormous. Some interpret this prediction as a possible strike from space or a terrible global epidemic of an unknown disease. This prediction predicts salvation and revival for Russia.

Nostradamus' predictions of the future are the most vague. His poems, called quatrains, can be interpreted very widely. If you set a goal, you can link almost any global event to them. Recently, many scammers have been speculating on the predictions of a famous astrologer of the past, in the hope of making money on the gullibility of the population.

The predictions of modern soothsayers are more optimistic. For example, Pavel Globa argues that there is no need to be afraid of nuclear war. The main problem of the future will be the economic state of the planet. As a result of the depletion of resource reserves, Europe and the United States will lose their positions on the world stage, and Russia will take a leading position, thanks to the rich raw material base in the country. It is predicted to unite with the CIS countries to create a stronger state.

Malakhat Nazarova, a fortuneteller from Baku, also does not scare with terrible disasters, although she does not exclude the possibility that a third world war could begin. According to her theory, at the end of each century the world plunges into chaos. Although the war may begin, according to the seer's forecasts, it will not lead to the extermination of humanity.

As we can see, the prophecies are quite vague and contradictory. You shouldn't trust them blindly. It is better to listen to the opinions of famous politicians and military figures.

Forecasts of military and politicians

The possible outbreak of a global conflict worries not only ordinary citizens of the planet, but also the powers that be. In 2014, a publication by political analyst Joachim Hagopian caused a huge resonance, claiming that Russia and the United States were seriously preparing to enter into an open conflict. All major world states will be drawn into this war. The entire European Union will side with the United States, and India and China will support Russia.

The analyst calls the depletion of energy reserves the main cause of the global conflict. According to Hagopian, the US economy is on the verge of bankruptcy, and in order to rise, it needs to seize new raw material bases. According to the expert, this conflict will unleash the Third World War and lead to the complete disappearance of some peoples.

American officer and former NATO chief Richard Shirreff described his point of view in the book “2017: War with Russia.” According to his beliefs, Russia will take over the Baltic countries, which are part of NATO, after which the US government will frivolously go to war with Russia. According to Shirreff, the US Army will suffer a crushing defeat, as government spending on the US Army decreases year after year.

Knowing the real role of Russia on the world stage, its authority and peaceful policy, this development of events looks implausible.

The results of a possible military confrontation between the United States and Russia

In order to assess the possible results of the global conflict between the United States and Russia, you need to try to roughly estimate the combat potential of both sides. British Colonel Ian Shields provides the following data on the size of both armies:

1. The number of NATO soldiers exceeds 3.5 million, which is more than 4 times the size of the Russian army (according to the same data, it is 800,000 people);
2. NATO has about 7.5 thousand tanks, which is three times the number of tanks in the Russian army.

Despite this significant superiority in manpower, it will not play a big role in a possible war. The main role in this conflict will be played by the latest technologies, the use of which can destroy tens of thousands of soldiers in a matter of seconds. Ian Shields believes that there is no need to fear that superpowers will start using nuclear weapons. The destruction in this case can be so enormous that there will be nothing to fight for.

Forecast from Vladimir Zhirinovsky

Vladimir Volfovich believes that the United States will not recklessly enter into a war until it is 100 percent sure of victory. According to Zhirinovsky, America provoked a conflict between Ukraine and Russia in order to weaken the enemy and drag him into a war with Western Europe. After it becomes clear who will win, the United States will finish off the loser and seize his territories.

The opinion of the LDPR leader often tends to come true. The Third World War, according to his forecast, will occur in the time interval from 2019 to 2025. Russia will win and immediately make a huge leap in development.

Overpopulation of the planet as the real reason for the outbreak of World War III

It is suggested that by 2050 the world's population will exceed 9 billion, and an amount of food will be needed that the earth cannot provide. All this will lead to people fighting each other for food, which will lead to terrible wars. These are not fantastic forecasts, but calculations of a number of scientists. The only way out of this situation seems to be the introduction of family planning.

Already, many countries have exhausted their natural resources and are forced to cut down forests that will not last long. A huge problem has become the presence of huge waste dumps that are not recycled and spoil the environment. After cutting down all the forests on the planet, global warming will begin, which will force many people of third world countries to make mass migrations to more suitable lands occupied by other peoples.

All this will inevitably provoke a conflict between refugees from third world countries and the population of civilized countries, which can only end in the complete destruction of one of the parties.

Despite the ominous predictions and escalation of conflicts on the world stage, we can hardly expect the outbreak of the third world war from this side. We need to reconsider the consumer attitude towards nature, otherwise our grandchildren will inherit a future roughly familiar to us from post-apocalyptic films and games.

If you have any questions, leave them in the comments below the article. We or our visitors will be happy to answer them

I am interested in martial arts with weapons and historical fencing. I write about weapons and military equipment because it is interesting and familiar to me. I often learn a lot of new things and want to share these facts with people who are interested in military issues.

Today, only a very lazy person does not care about the question of whether it is expected in 2017, because, given the growing political tension between many states, it can be assumed that the likelihood of such an event developing is very high. Of course, today it is very scary to think that a war could still start, because history allows us to understand that in such situations there are no winners (in fact), but only losers, but there are prerequisites for its development (even if minimal).

It is very difficult to imagine the development of the next world military conflict, so some assume that it will be accompanied by the construction of trenches and the appearance of cracks from explosions in the ground, while others expect nuclear bombings (the new millennium, after all). There are also supporters of the theory that the war is already underway, however, it is “cold” - informational, can it develop into another? Of course, it can, because people have always fought for land and resources that will allow them to become richer, and today on the world stage there are two powers that are waging an almost constant struggle between themselves, from which not only they themselves, but also everyone around them will suffer.

When discussing the question of whether there will be a third world war in 2017, it is worth paying special attention to information about which side to expect the impending threat from. When it is said that there are two states that are constantly fighting among themselves, everyone immediately understands that we are talking about America and Russia, because they are the ones who strive to take the place of leader in the world political arena, and, as we know, there cannot be two leaders Maybe. Today, relations between these two countries have become significantly more complicated, because the West has imposed sanctions against the Russian Federation, which has become an outright provocation of the conflict, because no one can say why the Russians are suffering such punishment (there is no evidence). The EU acts as an arbiter in this situation, but in fact it simply provokes the development of the conflict.

The main problem (no matter how strange it may sound) of modern humanity is that today you can receive news not only immediately, but also practically from first-hand, because now any information can be found on the Internet. However, the flow of (often unverified) information available on the Internet has led to the fact that people have stopped analyzing the events being presented, and many are taking all the democratic negotiations described on the Internet rather frivolously. It is worth noting that Russia will still take part in the third world war in 2017, although there is nothing to be afraid of yet, because today the conflict is being fought only on computer monitors. In the future, this fact may cause the development of a new grandiose conflict.

Should we expect danger?

The militarized conflicts emerging in different parts of the world indicate that the development of another world war is simply considered a matter of time. Moreover, the conflict will not just be military; many expect the outbreak of a nuclear war, because for some reason the leading states are developing nuclear weapons, therefore, they admit the possibility of their use.

The media have long been discussing information that the “powers of this world” are planning to reduce the number of people living on the planet to one billion (usually called golden), because this is exactly the number of people considered to be the optimal number for the rational use of the planet’s resources. It will not be possible to exterminate the world's population without war, although there are, of course, biological weapons, but their use is too dangerous for everyone (without exception). Taking all this into account, a third world war in 2017 is quite possible, but no one can say whether it will be conventional or nuclear.

Forecasters' forecasts

The world, which has frozen on the threshold of some kind of global change, is literally pushing all people to turn to seers and psychics to find the necessary information. World politicians cannot accurately answer whether we should be afraid of war or not, but all those who observe the confrontation between many states are confident that it will still happen, and most people who have the gift of foresight only confirm all these guesses.

At one time, Kasyan predicted the development of a tectonic catastrophe that would reduce the land area and force people to fight for their place in the sun, and Alois Ilmayer is confident that the war will begin with the use of chemical weapons, after which a lot of diseases will fall on the planet and all its inhabitants and epidemics.

The war will start in the east, with Syria being the key to this event. Separately, it should be mentioned that Vanga also spoke about the Third World War for 2017, and it was in her predictions that it was first noticed that the paramilitary conflict that would begin in the east would gradually spread to Europe, resulting in a confrontation between people from two worlds - Christians and Muslims. (the great French astrologer) not only confirms her forecast, but also supplements it with data that the military confrontation will continue for 27 years.

There is also a prophecy of the elders about the third world war in 2017, which contains information that military operations will still take place, and there will be no people left where they take place. Experts who decipher or interpret such messages are confident that the elders meant a nuclear conflict or the use of biological weapons, because this is the only way to explain the absence of people. However, there is one positive news in the prophecy of the elders (if you can count it that way) - the war will be very short (it remains unclear who to believe - the elders or Nostradamus).

Taking into account all the information described above, it is simply impossible not to notice that the situation today is quite complex, and the war, in fact, is already underway, it’s just that some people do not want to notice it. How quickly will events develop in the future? Nobody knows this, but it is worth saying that the development of any conflict can be prevented, you just need to want some positive changes.

Global military conflict. Today, questions like “will there be a Third World War and when will it start” are no longer fantastic inventions, but very real fears of citizens.

In addition, now, given the growing tension on the world stage, such questions are more relevant than ever. All the conditions in the world lead to a new extensive war. It would seem that in our time no one will ever utter the words “Third World War”, because this very concept seems to have been erased with the liquidation of the “evil empire”.

And, it seems, there is no one with whom to wage a continental struggle (as it was in the Second World War) or a nuclear one (it is assumed that this is how the Third will take place). Some people think in images and imagine the Third World War like this: trenches, cracks in the black, ash-ridden earth, the “enemy” somewhere beyond the horizon...

These ideas are copied and formulated on the basis of many films and stories about the terrible and so distant war of our fathers and grandfathers. This is the Great Patriotic War. Or World War II. But . Many are confident that a future war is already underway. The media, at least, daily and tirelessly, with the importunity of a boring fly, tell us about this. The so-called information battle.

So who are we fighting with and why? History repeats itself, bringing into the world a new global conflict over the right to own land. However, now this land, in addition to population and territories, must have another important quality: resources. Gas, coal, oil. These raw materials are the engine of all the economies of the world. And the central protagonists in a future war, as experts believe, will be “sworn friends” - two powers that have every opportunity to mutually destroy each other and the entire planet using their stockpiles of nuclear weapons.

Where can we expect war?

One should not think that the threat should come from Europe. She is busy with deep introspection and eliminating “economic fleas.” Europe does not pose any danger to Russia. The true enemy will come from afar, he will come from overseas.

It is unlikely that anyone will be surprised by the assumption, because since the time of the Fulton speech in 1946, the future enemy has been clearly defined and his name is no secret to anyone in Russia. It would seem, well, what does America care about us? What will Russia do wrong again?

What benefits will the United States want to gain and what will it try to teach the “simple Russian peasant”? The answer is simple - the resources and, perhaps, the ambitions of an equally powerful country that does not tolerate competition. We also cannot forget the “peacemaker” represented by the EU. Now this peacemaker is more like a provocateur who cheerfully dances to the tune of the United States.

It’s as if a repeat of the USA’s cries are heard echoing from the countries of Europe - sanctions, sanctions, sanctions again and... The Third World War. The global integration of societies and economies has led to the widespread and inevitability of a new war that will engulf the entire world. The ability to receive news virtually “first-hand”, online or through satellite television, has given humanity the amazing privilege of learning everything much faster than a dozen years ago.

It is worth noting, however, that the flow of information has completely discouraged people from critically evaluating and analyzing the events and facts provided. Indeed, for most users, a string of democratic revolutions, coups d'etat and local military skirmishes are simply scattered parts of world politics that will eventually become history. But is it?

This is a question that will remain unanswered. Whether we believe in the Freemasons, “world puppeteers” and “almighty rulers of the entire planet”, whether we hope for the sanity and prudence of rulers in using or not using nuclear weapons - all this does not in any way affect the events taking place in the world. It is quite possible that the Third World War is being fought only on computer monitors, televisions and in the headphones of radio fans.

But it is a fact that it is already beginning, unleashing, as if in a spiral, a global conflict. At the same time, armed conflicts of a local nature in different parts of the planet clearly tell us that the Third World War is just around the corner, the only question that remains is when it will start.

It is also worth understanding that this will not simply be a military conflict on a global scale, but quite possibly a real nuclear war, the result of which could be the almost complete extinction of humanity. According to the conspiracy theory, the Freemasons intend to reduce the number of people on the planet to 1 billion.

According to members of the secret society, this is the number of residents that will be optimal for reasonable consumption and complete control of natural resources. In any case, using biological weapons to reduce the population is too dangerous. We must not forget that substances can mutate and, quite possibly, the Masons themselves will not be able to protect themselves from their own “seeds of evil”, since they will not have a vaccine.

Thus, it is the nuclear Third World War that is the most considered by experts for the development of further events on the part of the Freemasons with their desire to establish world order with total control.

World War III: clairvoyant predictions

In a world frozen on the threshold of something global and frightening, people listen to everything that gives even the slightest plausible picture of the future. It seems that a war that will engulf the countries is inevitable.

Just look at the confrontation between different civilizations, radical ideologies and the threat of terrorism. We should not forget about natural disasters and catastrophes that occurred due to the fault of humanity itself.

They also provoked a struggle for necessary resources - energy sources and clean water. Both today and many years ago, sages, scientists and amateurs tried to decipher ancient records, predictions and prophecies of famous psychics and sorcerers in order to find answers to many questions of interest to the people. The most important question to which we so want to find a reassuring answer is whether there will be a Third World War.

Hermit Kasyan predicted a tectonic catastrophe, after which people would pour into the remaining territories in hungry crowds, causing even greater destruction, bringing the final death of nations.

According to Alois Ilmayer at the very beginning of the Third World War, bacteriological and chemical weapons will be used, atomic missiles will be launched. The East will declare war on Europe. Diseases, as if from a cornucopia, will begin to fall on people, producing terrible, unprecedented epidemics. Due to the movement of tectonic plates, many areas will become uninhabitable and this will cause attacks by Muslims and Asians. The seer also says that Syria will be the key to either peace or the start of a world war.

Forest Seer Mühlhiazl, in turn, noted that the main sign of the coming war would be a “construction fever” - like bees in a hive, peoples would build huge honeycombs, filling the planet. It is quite possible that the prophet meant that humanity is preoccupied with the material side of life more than the spiritual.

The great predictor Nostradamus in his quatrains he wrote that the war would begin in the 21st century and would last for 27 years. This bloody and destructive war will come from the East.

Blind clairvoyant Vanga said that a global war would start from Syria, spread to Europe and go further. A massive battle is coming between the Christian and Muslim worlds.

Grigory Rasputin spoke of three snakes that would bring great destruction. There have already been two world wars, which means that humanity faces new challenges. The situation is truly threatening. But, despite the fact that the whole world is now wondering when there will be war, we must not forget that it has quite possibly already begun. And the war began in our souls.

Nowadays, material wealth has been put in first place, not the laughter of a child or the smile of a mother. Sincerely loving, sympathizing, helping has long become irrelevant. But if we begin to think more often about our own souls and the common good, perhaps we will be able to avoid a bloodbath.

Terrorist attacks, armed conflicts and disputes between the leaders of leading countries... Recently, such events are happening more and more often and give rise to thoughts of a new war that will affect all states of the globe. There is an opinion that the Third World War has already begun. It is being waged not on the battlefield, but on the Internet: through mutual attacks and distortion of data. Alas, if the battles become reality, others may use nuclear weapons. This threatens a huge number of casualties and destruction. It is not surprising that more and more people are wondering: is the planet facing World War III? There are a great many opinions on this matter. We have collected all available information to present you with the big picture.

Clairvoyant prophecies

In difficult times, even skeptics turn to psychics in the hope of positive forecasts. Unfortunately, this is not the most reliable source. Often, fictitious “revelations” are published under the name of a famous or not-so-famous seer. On the Internet you can find surprisingly detailed “prophecies” of Vanga, Nostradamus, Edgar Cayce and other outstanding clairvoyants.

Many clairvoyants predict a cataclysm, but will it be a world war?

Many of the predictions relate to World War III, the role of Russia and Ukraine in the battles, the conflict in Donbass, and so on. Such data should be carefully checked. The older the prediction, the less clear information it provides. As a rule, real clairvoyant prophecies are very vague and can be interpreted in different ways. We present you with several such forecasts. Believe them or not - the choice is yours.

Vanga's predictions

At the end of the last century, a Bulgarian seer promised the beginning of destructive battles: “ War will be everywhere, between all nations" According to Vanga, the events she described will be equal in scale to the biblical Apocalypse. They will begin, " when a person loses the ability to compassion" The cause of the conflict must be religion.

It can be assumed that the danger comes from the Islamic East, where the terrorist organization ISIS operates. According to Vanga, the war will be accompanied by a huge number of disasters and natural disasters. But the seer did not give exact dates. She told her listeners that it was not they who would see the war, but their children – today’s youth.

Prediction of Matrona of Moscow

A blind Russian seer made similar predictions. One of the saint’s latest predictions has become the subject of much controversy. " There will be no war, without war you will all die, there will be many victims, you will all lie dead on the ground... Without war, war goes on!" - this is how these words sound. But what would that mean? One of the interpretations involves a cosmic catastrophe, the other - an incurable disease from which many people will die. An environmental disaster is being considered as an option.

You can read on the Internet that Matrona’s words refer to 2017. But that's not true. The seer, like many of her colleagues, rarely mentioned specific dates. By the way, the terrible prophecy has a continuation: “ At sunset, all people will fall to the ground, and at sunrise they will rise, and the world will become different." Matrona promised salvation and rebirth to the Russian people.

Nostradamus's prediction

The legendary seer interpreted the future based on the movement of celestial bodies. He passed on his knowledge in collections-almanacs consisting of quatrains - one for each year. These quatrains should not be taken literally. This mysterious verse refers to the coming 2017:

“Out of rage, someone will wait for water,
The army was in great rage.
Nobles loaded onto 17 ships
Along the Rhone; The messenger arrived late."

Most likely, the predictor had in mind a disaster at sea. The Rhone River is in France, and the events described are most likely to occur there. But this quatrain hardly foreshadows a global conflict. As for the near future, alarming hints can be seen in the following quatrain. The verse dates back to 2018 and contains the following lines:

“The fortress has been undermined, and the old freethinker
He will show the Genevans the traces of Nir."

The mysterious "Nira" is considered an anagram of the word "Iran". Accordingly, the threat of World War III may come from this country. The Non-Aligned Movement becomes a possible initiator of war. By “Genevians” we can mean the United Nations. Its headquarters are located in the Swiss city of Geneva.

Prediction by Pavel Globa

The famous Russian astrologer is confident that the confrontation between the superpowers will not go beyond the Cold War. At the same time, serious things await the world. In many countries, poverty and unemployment will reach peak levels. The United States and Europe will lose their positions on the world stage.

But Russia will improve its well-being thanks to energy resources. Subsequently, former Soviet states will join the Russian Federation: Kazakhstan, Belarus, and perhaps even Ukraine. Russia's eastern ally, China, will also become stronger. The world is facing natural disasters. However, Globa believes that things will not come to global conflicts and a third world war.

Prediction by Malakhat Nazarova

A modern prophetess originally from Baku also gives quite clear predictions. In her prophecies, she speaks of 2017 as a turning point in history. According to Nazarova, in September it will become clear whether the Third World War is coming. At the end of every century, give or take ten years, chaos reigns on Earth. This period will end in 2017.

The start of a war depends on the situation in the political arena. If the conflicting superpowers reach a compromise, the threat can be avoided. Nazarova believes that in 2017 the world will be hit by many natural disasters. States will devote all their efforts to combating disasters, and it will not come to international clashes. The seer also believes that in 2017 China will face a conflict with Japan. However, it is unknown whether it will affect other countries.

The clairvoyant does not believe that the war will end. Life on earth is eternal, says Nazarova. According to the theory of hierarchical catastrophes, the end of the world awaits us in 2017. But let us note that almost every year followers of one or another teaching wait for the Apocalypse, and so far in vain. Therefore, you should not rely entirely on the opinions of seers. It is better to pay attention to the statements of politicians and experts.

Military-political forecasts

The prospect of World War III scares not only ordinary people, but also those who influence the fate of the world. In 2015, American political analyst and former military man Joachim Hagopian published an article on the GlobalResearch portal. The expert draws attention to “warning signals” that indicate the approach of war. Hagopian writes that the strongest powers - the United States and Russia - are preparing for a possible conflict. The parties enlist the support of their allies. The States are guided by the EU, Russia by China and India.

The depletion of natural energy resources, on which the well-being of many countries rests, is another prerequisite for hostilities. The expert believes that America is facing bankruptcy in the near future. This will lead to war. The opponents will be the USA, NATO and Israel on the one hand, and Russia, India and China on the other. Australia will side with the US. But a separate conflict will begin between South and North Korea. Hagopian predicts that entire nations may be destroyed during the war.

Another American officer, former NATO chief Alexander Richard Shirreff, presents his forecast in the book “2017: War with Russia.” The work is not a documentary, but behind the fictional events it is easy to discern the main idea: the rash policy of the United States leads to a conflict with the Russian Federation. The result will be the defeat of the United States.

According to the plot, Russia captures the Baltic states, which are members of NATO. This event marks the beginning of the war. Reducing funds allocated for the needs of the army leads to defeats for the United States... Western media found this version of events plausible. But the Russians themselves have a hard time believing in the capture of the Baltic states. Such a decision would be reckless for the Russian government, whose position is stronger than ever.

Possible outcome of a clash between the USA and Russia

But if you imagine that the events described will happen, you can estimate the strengths of both sides. According to British air colonel and international relations lecturer Ian Shields, the number of NATO military units significantly exceeds the resources of Russia. Let’s compare: the North Atlantic Alliance has more than 3.5 million soldiers, Russia – 800 thousand. The number of NATO is 7.5 thousand versus 2.7 thousand for the Russian Federation.

But in battle, not only the amount of resources is important. Many factors can become decisive. According to Shields, World War III will be little like World War II. Ultra-modern technologies, including computer ones, can be used in battles. The battles will become less protracted, but there will be more losses than in any of the previous wars.

Unlike many political scientists, Shields does not take the risk of nuclear war seriously. The use of atomic weapons will entail global destruction, which neither side wants. The expert shares this opinion with regard to chemical and bio-technologies. If a weapon of this type is used, it will not become the main weapon.

Alas, this does not mean that World War III will not bring significant consequences. Shields believes that the conflict will affect all areas of human life. The so-called “information war” will play an important role, which will unfold on the Internet, television screens and newspaper pages. In addition, the war will affect the economy, finance, politics, and so on. The expert believes that the battles will even move into outer space.

Predictions of Vladimir Zhirinovsky

The threat of World War III is talked about not only in the United States. In April 2016, the head of the LDPR, Vladimir Zhirinovsky, said that the West was preparing for a world war, which would be carried out “by the hands of the Slavs.” According to the politician, the American method is for Ukraine to fight against Russia, and the United States to receive financial benefits.

Zhirinovsky emphasized that the United States entered all wars at the very end, when the outcome was clear. After the end of the conflict, the United States imposed conditions favorable to America on the remaining states. If you believe Zhirinovsky, the same will happen this time. The states will enter the war when Russia captures the capital of Ukraine, and will dictate to the Russian Federation which regions of the country to transfer to neighboring states. When will these events happen?

The politician is confident that war could break out from 2017 to 2025. After this, the world will experience a technical breakthrough comparable to human space flight. Russia will have such military resources that no country will dare to confront the Russian Federation. This radical scenario is fully consistent with the spirit of the Liberal Democratic Party. But Zhirinovsky's statements rarely come true.
