The war in Ukraine has global implications and is increasingly becoming a clash of systems - Western democracies are feeling challenged by autocracies like Russia and China. Both models want to prevail.

So far, China's peace plan for Ukraine has found little favor in the West. Instead, there are warnings from the US about possible arms deliveries from China to Russia, and Russia's ally Alexander Lukashenko personally traveled to China.

Both sides are unable to find an agreement and are courting non-aligned countries, like G-20 host India, for example, which has seen a wave of diplomatic efforts, including a visit by German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

So on To the Point we ask: War in Ukraine: Are new alliances dividing the world?
