The US administration is discussing the possibility of creating a new alliance of five states, which will be an alternative to the "Group of Seven" (G7), in which Russia, the United States, China, India and Japan will participate, Politico reports.
According to its information, a seemingly unusual idea to create a new unit called Core 5 (C5) is being discussed in Washington.
Defense One claimed that this point was included in an unpublished version of the National Security Strategy that they were able to review.
The administration of US President Donald Trump is considering the idea of creating a new grouping that will not be limited by the demands and conditions of the G7. The first item on the agenda of the C5 may be the settlement of the Middle East, particularly the settlement of relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia.
