Recently, the Foreign Affairs magazine under the "Committee on Foreign Relations (CFR)" of the US think tank published an article predicting the future development direction of the new world order, and believes that there may be an important reform: the world will be determined by military strength, and the world is likely to be controlled by the top three military powers. People can't help but think of the topic of China, the United States and Russia replacing the United Nations. It also said that China and the United States and Russia may establish a "global coordination mechanism" that mainly manages the risks and ideological conflicts brought about by geopolitical games. In addition to the United States and Russia, the European Union will become a member of the organization as a special representative, Japan and India have a certain military strength and may also join the organization, and the article was written by the think tank's chairman, Richard M. Haas and Senior Fellow Charles. Co-authored by Kupcher.
The article argues that the Post-World War II order, dominated by the West, is outdated, that international organizations, including the United Nations, are administratively inefficient and too "bureaucratic" in dealing with major issues. The article also pointed out that the global economy is closely linked, especially among major powers, so the possibility of a new Cold War is unlikely. But the possibility of direct confrontation between great powers is growing, and the United States and its Western allies are no longer able to interfere in the affairs of all regions of the world at will when it comes to power-based discourse. Then it is necessary to consider the establishment of a "global coordination mechanism" organization led by major powers, with which direct exchanges and negotiations can be carried out between major powers to avoid direct conflicts between major powers.
The article emphasizes that this agency does not replace the United Nations, but prefers an information-oriented and exchange organization, with the aim of establishing a sound and effective preventive mechanism to avoid the outbreak of war and conflict between major powers. In addition to the United States, China, Russia, the European Union, Japan, India, other regions can be selected to represent, permanent headquarters of the organization, such as the Arab League, the South-East Asian Union, the African Union and the Organization of American States, etc., can be represented, the body will be complementary to the United Nations. The agency can be represented by the states concerned in talks on regional issues, and the most important role of the organization is to deal with possible conflicts and wars, and to deal with matters and be much more efficient than the United Nations.
However, some relevant experts in the United States believe that the establishment of the organization may not be so good, first of all, it is based on military strength, that is, countries and organizations with strong military strength can directly lead or participate in the discussion of important global affairs, and even have the right to vote, which is very likely to be similar to the existence of the United Nations Security Council. However, whether these 6 countries and organizations can really take into account the interests of other countries and organizations remains to be discussed. The most important thing is that this proposal was made by the U.S. think tank "Committee on Foreign Relations (CFR)," so it is possible that the United States will lead, and whether the United States can persuade China and Russia to join the organization is a huge question.
As we all know, among the permanent members of the UN Security Council are the United States, China, Russia, And France and the United Kingdom, although they are also permanent members of the Security Council, have always kept pace with the United States in major decisions and votes. At present, the United Nations has long lost its impartiality, and western countries led by the United States have abused the rights of the United Nations and even not participated in major United Nations conferences, which has become the norm. To this day, the United States still owes the United Nations a lot of contributions, but few people mention the disgraceful things that the United States has done, and the United Nations has essentially become a tool of the United States and a machine for the United States to abuse its rights and wage public opinion warfare.
If the organization was founded by the United States and its headquarters are required to be located in the United States, then who can guarantee that the United States will not use the agency for its own purposes? The agency could even become a tool of U.S. propaganda warfare and political game, in which case China and Russia are unlikely to recognize it. It should be known that China and Russia have conducted direct negotiations with the United States, but the process and results have not met expectations, and even the United States has suspended negotiations on the way, to be honest, the United States is not trustworthy at all.
In addition, the organization is based on military strength, and there is even a sense that military powers can determine the fate of other countries, which will remind people of the former "League of Nations". The "League of Nations" was a product of the First World War, but before the "League of Nations" was founded, there was another important event, that is, the "Paris Peace Conference", but the "Paris Peace Conference" fully demonstrated the essence of the so-called peaceful organization, and the "Paris Peace Conference" was completely the division of the weak countries by imperialism. On the first day after the Treaty of Versailles came into force, the "League of Nations" was also formally established, although the "League of Nations" had certain achievements in some fields, but it was more "inaction" and bullying of weak countries by powerful countries, and the "League of Nations" was useless when the strong countries used weak countries as a tool for exchanging interests between them.
The Chinese delegation put forward its own demands at the "Paris Peace Conference": First, the abolition of imperialist privileges in China; second, the abolition of the "Twenty-one Articles" forced by Japan in 1951, China must recover shandong's rights and interests. However, the United States, Britain, and France were worried about Japan's withdrawal from the peace conference, did not support China's proposal, and agreed to transfer all of Germany's interests in Shandong to Japan, and wrote the relevant provisions into the Versailles Peace Treaty. China is well aware of this, and this history has always been remembered, this is a bullying policy imposed by military powers, but also a bullying of weak countries, in which case China is unlikely to join the so-called "global coordination mechanism" proposed by US think tanks. China has also long stated that it will not bully other countries, not to be a world hegemon, and it will not impose its will on others.
This so-called "global coordination mechanism" has similarities with the "League of Nations" of that year, and may really be able to achieve results on some issues, but on major issues, especially when it comes to arms expansion and war, it has done basically nothing. The so-called realization of world peace is unlikely to be achieved, and today's United Nations is only an extension of the "League of Nations" in the so-called realization of world peace; if the United Nations can really control the United States, then the United States will not become the country that has launched the most wars in the world.
China proposes that the United Nations should be reformed, taking into account the interests of developing and poor countries, and should not only focus on developed countries. In fact, China and Russia, as well as other developing countries and non-Western camp countries, have long been very dissatisfied with the inaction of the United Nations, especially when it comes to the interests of the United States, the United Nations is basically useless, while the Western countries led by the United States are manipulating everything in the United Nations.
Most importantly, the proposal by the American think tank is full of intrigue, and it is a question worth pondering whether the United States, China, Russia, the European Union are still qualified, and whether Japan and India are qualified. Japan is a close ally of the United States, and Japan and some American politicians have long clamored for an additional permanent seat on the UN Security Council or a rotating UN seat for the countries that can enter the list, including Japan and India. Also, is this country of India really eligible to participate! World events and international affairs are very serious matters, and India's actions over the past few decades make it hard to believe that India would have good advice on important matters. The so-called "global coordination mechanism" is more like a small United Nations, although there are 6 countries and organizations, but the United States has won Japan and India, it can determine the direction of the "global coordination mechanism", not to mention that the EU is wavering, who dares to guarantee that the EU will not support the United States, in short, it may be necessary to establish a global organization to supplement the United Nations, but at least it is not the United States to propose, let alone the United States to lead.
