While the United States and its closest allies in Europe and Asia have imposed tough economic sanctions on Moscow, 87 percent of the world’s population has declined to follow us. Economic sanctions have united our adversaries in shared resistance. Less predictably, the outbreak of Cold War II, has also led countries that were once partners or non-aligned to become increasingly multi-aligned.
I don't see neoliberalism wining in any war situation due to how it predates on its own productive capabilities by massive rent extraction on its own productive forces at home in very real terms a long term war with a near peer rival stresses the neoliberal structure in ways never done before its purely theoretical what happens long term, industry state captlism has been tested in this way before and it did quite well.
The ties the Russians have to countries like India and Brazil as well as the dozens of other countries in the middle east, Africa and South America. America is trying to entice global south countries to shift their economies away from Russia because they’re fucking them less than the Americans are.
There's basically only 4 non-Western countries (Japan, South Korea, Georgia, Turkey) that aren't friendly with Russia. Westerners really think the world revolves around them. Just because they don't like Russia doesn't mean the rest of the world shares their opinion.
I can't speak for Indonesia (although a glance at the Wikipedia article on Indonesia-Russia relations seems to suggest at least cordial relations), but India and Brazil are at least extremely friendly with Russia. Like, they're all part of BRICS, so there's absolutely nothing to gain from India and Brazil being hostile to Russia. India in particular has a long history of cooperation with Russia dating back to the 1960s when the Soviet Union supported India during its wars with China and Pakistan. They didn't even bother to condemn Russian invasion in the UN. And for Brazil, the most anti-Russian thing they did was condemn them in the UN, but actual relations, under both Bolsonaro and Lula, have been positive.
And as for Chile, I forgot about Boric being a bootlicking stooge for the US.
I get the nato bit but how is it between them and the whole of the global south?
87% of world doesn't support West's new cold war on Russia. Two ex US diplomats admitted 87% of the world’s population refuses to enforce the West’s sanctions on Russia, showing neutrality over the proxy war in Ukraine. They said “the outbreak of Cold War II” has led countries “to become increasingly multi-aligned,” especially in the Global South. In a Newsweek op-ed titled “Nearly 90 Percent of the World Isn’t Following Us on Ukraine,” ex diplomats Michael Gfoeller and David H. Rundell wrote:

The "West" (NATO/EU/US/Australia/New Zealand) openly opposes rest of world in UN votes for fairer economic system, equality, sustainable development. Latin America refuses to send Ukraine weapons, despite US pressure. US is preparing for war on China, and soon. BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, is building a financial counter-hegemony that challenges US dollar, and even the (former?) US puppet state Saudi Arabia is considering selling oil in other currencies: Financial multipolarity. The Entire world votes 185 to 2 against blockade of Cuba - US and Israel are rogue states at UN. An EU leader admitted the new cold war is not ‘democracy vs autocracy’: Many 'authoritarian regimes on our side' . An EU leader confessed 'our prosperity was based on China & Russia': cheap energy, low-paid labor, big market, and that the disappearance of this dynamic has necessitated this imperialism. The lashing out at the loss of financial and military hegemony over the globe. In neocolonial rant, and EU leader said Europe is 'garden' superior to rest of world's barbaric 'jungle' . The West killed a potential peace deal in the Ukraine. Russia and Ukraine agreed to a negotiated settlement to end the conflict in April, but British Prime Minister Boris Johnson intervened to stop the peace deal, and the US and EU escalated the proxy war to try to weaken Moscow. China forgave 23 loans in 17 African countries, debunking the debt trap myth while the USA continues to coup countries (Ukraine in 2014 for example) who refuse their poisonous IMF loans. I hope this shows you that it really is the west vs. the rest. Russia/Ukraine is just a flashpoint for a global war between the imperial core and the imperial periphery.
