Summary: The astute eye will detect beneath the conflict between the Global North/West and Global South/East a rising trend toward decolonization. The Global North/West's answer to this neoliberal globalization, which is inherently neo-imperial and depends on maintaining colonization for hegemony.
The world system is shaking. The biggest danger is that Western military strategists see the window closing soon on the ability to defeat a combined Russia and China, although it is not clear that the window is already shut based on simulations. But know that the game will have shifted decisively within ten years if China continues the pace of its rise and is the recipient of Russian military technology.
This is all about control of the Eurasian land mass aka "the world island." It is truism in geopolitics that whoever controls the world island controls the world. This pits land powers (Russia, China and Iran) against sea powers (the US and UK). This conflict has been going on for hundreds of years and is coming to a head again owing to globalization.
