By stability I mean we're not going back to russia's beloved 17/18/19th century many-player politics with wars happening everywhere all the time.

With nuclear weapons on the table, you have 2 options: a hegemon "world police" or a bipolar order (US and China).

If you want a true multipolar order and decentralised power, first you will need strong international law and institutions, not more of this imperial crap.

Ok, I'm done.
