A former Conservative party leader has warned China and Russia are an \u201caxis of totalitarian states\u201d that threaten Western democracy if governments continue to turn a \u201cblind eye\u201d.<\/p>\n
Sir Iain Duncan Smith, who has been a vocal critic of Communist Party authorities in Beijing, was reacting to a piece by Times columnist Matthew Syed headlined \u201cWhile our leaders indulge in puerile squabbles, tyrants seize the moment\u201d.<\/p>\n
Mr Syed wrote that the West faces rising powers in China, Iran, North Korea and Russia that are \u201cmore powerful than Nazi Germany\u201d and more \u201cthreatening than the Soviet Union\u201d.<\/p>\n
During World War II, the axis powers were said to be the Nazis, Japan, Italy, who were ranged against the allies of principally Britain, the Commonwealth, and the United States.<\/p>\n
After the war the Soviet Union emerged as the chief enemy of Britain and the West during the Cold War which lasted until the 1990s.<\/p>\n
