(New York Times) Bret Stephens - In 1994, John Bolton said that if the UN Secretariat building in New York "lost 10 stories, it wouldn't make a bit of difference." Why is the remark even controversial? The UN is a never-ending scandal disguised as an everlasting hope. The hope is that dialogue can overcome distrust and collective security can be made to work in the interests of humanity. Reality says otherwise. Trust is established by deeds, not words. Collective security is a recipe for international paralysis or worse. Just ask the people of Aleppo. Total expenditure for the UN system in 2016 was $49 billion, up 22% since 2010. And the abuse of the UN system by states such as Russia to protect clients like Bashar al-Assad is a feature of the system, not a bug. 2018-03-26 00:00:00Full Article
