All eyes were fixed on Vladimir Putin as the Russian president attended the event for the first time in more than a decade. He joined with more than 150 world leaders in New York at the UNGA. His speech stirred waves of surprises when he condemned the actions of United States and the NATO alliances in the International affairs. Putin also expressed his deep concern on United States’ intervention in world affairs which were extremely dangerous. His speech posed lots of open-ended questions to the members of assembly. The main area of Putin’s speech was focused on the issues of Syria, and Ukraine crisis and the United States’ and NATO’s intervention …show more content…
Security Council. United States dominance has only brought bloodshed and chaos in many parts of the world. He criticized United States by saying, ‘We all know that after the end of the Cold War — everyone is aware of that — a single center of domination emerged in the world, and then those who found themselves at the top of the pyramid were tempted to think that if they were strong and exceptional, they knew better and they did not have to reckon with the U.N.’ He also stated that United States failed to learn lessons from the Soviet Union which collapsed because of exporting its ideological preferences to other countries. In the same way United States, pushes it theory of democracy in the form of revolution to many countries in the Middle East and North Africa mentioning about Iraq and Libya. The American initiated democracy in those regions only brought destruction and chaos in the country. It was an utter failure. Only violence, poverty and social disaster prevail in those regions. He squarely asked the listeners ‘who have caused the situation? Do you realize now what you've done? But I am afraid no one is going to answer …show more content…
Islamic State did not come from nowhere. The power vacuum created in Iraq and Libya by toppling the legitimate governments in the name of so-called democracy has fuelled the growth to Islamic state terrorists. The militants of Islamic States were the deserted Iraqi and Libyan servicemen. The main reason for such a cause was the result of violation of the U.N. Security Council Resolution of 1973. The Islamic State strengthened their positions in Iraq and Syria, and now they are expanding their wings to other regions. He further added that it is hypocritical and irresponsible for the nations who have created the terrorist talking about international terrorism. They turn a blind eye to the channels of financing and supporting with arms and in illicit oil trade, to achieve their political goals.
Putin on Syria:
He stated that Russia is providing arms and technical assistance to Syria to fight the Islamic State and other terrorists groups. He strongly accused the countries for not cooperating with Syrian government to fight against terrorism. He further added that Syrian armed forces are fighting face to face with the terrorist militants group on all fronts. Hence it is of utmost importance to assist the legitimate government of Syria.
Putin on the Refugee
...ary power to influence the decisions made not only by the Assad Regime in Syria but also to influence the likes of Israel and Saudi Arabia as she can have greater advantage in the future by having better relations with these nations. However, Putin’s Russa stopped all attempts made by the United States to make any intervention in Syria. On 19 July, 2013 Russia, for the third time, vetoed against the United Nations Resoltution that would have punished the Syrian government with economic sanctions for failing to carry out a peace plan. This shows the role of how power influences between the two nations.
Insightfulness is a key trait of President Putin. His understanding of the neoconservative foreign policy of the United States has led him to the conclusion that watching another legitimate government fall at the hands of CIA backed terrorists is a crime which must be

...ave either worsened the situations of certain conflicts or instigated more unnecessary conflicts. These unnecessary interventions have lead to unnecessary loss of lives, both Americans and foreigners and made the United States be focussed more on events abroad than the issues at home. Imagine if the United States was a Third World country and another fictional superpower similar to the United States meddled with all the businesses and issues inside the nation. The American people would be furious just like the people of other nations that have been affected and are currently being affected by the United State’s imperialistic actions. If this scenario ever becomes a reality, perhaps it will teach the United States to not unnecessarily meddle with events abroad. Let the other countries be. The United States is not the world’s police and never should be.
...NATO aggression and occupation and the West’s expedient support of one or another oppressive indigenous or regional force. “The United States,” RAWA commented on this occasion, “wants the world to know that it is responsible for the establishment of order in the world and [that] nothing in the world changes without its will so it can extend its presence in the region by bringing together our enemies of different species and tightening their leashes in its hands.” The group went on to say that the United States “can create a regime that is much more mafia, dependent, corrupt, anti-people and more ridiculous than the current one in our homeland; and after the expiration date of its dirty creations, it will take each by the tail and throw them aside like mice. … These “insultingly painful games,” RAWA said, “are played with our suffering nation.…” However, they said,
For the past several months the United Nations’ Security Council has debated on whether or not to accept the U.S. proposal to force Iraq to comply the new and former resolutions. The new resolution calls for complete disarmament of Iraq and the re-entrance of weapons inspectors into Iraq. If Iraq fails to comply, then military force would be taken in order to disarm Iraq. This proposal met opposition from council members Russia, China, and France. They thought that the U.S. proposal was too aggressive and that the U.S. should not act alone without U.N. approval. For weeks they refused to believe that the only way to make Iraq disarm is through the threat of force and the fear of being wiped out.
Ivan Illich 's speech wrote in a sarcastic way to critic about United State student, who volunteer overseas, in specific, Latin America. His discussed student’s good intention to help other but them actually not helping at all. They will be feeling powerlessness and the voluntary presence of receivers. The problems are students with less knowledge about the culture of the country they are volunteers in; they do not even understand the language, and too naïve with the thought that they come volunteer for several weeks or months will fix the problem that the village have. One of Ivan Illich example is students tried to help the poor in Mexico to help themselves. However, Unite States have the same problem with poverty, but the student from United
The night before the anniversary of 9/11 in 2013, Barack Obama delivered a speech to the United States of America on the subject of Syria’s inhumane use of chemical weapons on its own citizens. The United States’ intelligence analysts estimated that more than 1,400 civilians were killed due to the chemical warheads that were launched on the area right outside of Damascus. In President Barack Obama’s address to the nation on Syria, he attempts to persuade the American people to support his plan of a targeted air strike on Syria. By describing the victims of Syria, giving reasons for the inhumanity of the Syrian government, and reinforcing his credibility,
The United Nations Security Council is in desperate need of reform because of the current dysfunction which surrounds it. Any suggestion of reform could be idealistic. To not enlarge the Security Council is an option too. Over the years, proposals on the reform of the Security Council have included the enlargement of the Security Council, changes to the categories or proportions of membership of the Security Council, the addition of Regional Representatives and changes to the relationship between the Security Council and the General Assembly. Another option for veto reform is to abolish the veto over resolutions concerning genocide and other crimes against humanity. Various international relations perspectives, including Idealists, Liberals, Marxists and Realists, align with each of these proposals. The best hope for the future lies in the expansion of Security Council members and possibly some control over the exercise of veto power by Security Council members.
(U) In order to discuss the actions and behaviors of the Islamic State of Iraq and Levant (ISIL), one must first recognize its origins and its association or disassociation with other terrorist groups. The building of terrorist organizations does not occur overnight, and they take years of careful socialization to occur. To conceptualize the creation of a terrorist organization like ISIS, we have to look at the structural, systemic and motivational factors that comprise the group and its ideologies. If a society loses its cohesion, then some of the socio-political factors such as religion, ethnicity, tribe or clan, and race would come into play to fill that void. We could use a socio-political cleavage matrix to look for the individual friction points to see where the gestation of the terrorist organization starts and why. In this case, we will focus on one who some call the father of Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS). This was Abu Mus’ab al-Zarqawi, a Jordanian of the Sunni denomination, who took his name from his birthplace Zarqa, Jordan .
Donald Trump’s announcement that he was running for the presidency shocked many people. When he released his announcement speech I knew I would not be voting for him because I do not agree with any of his ideas or beliefs. His speech in general is flawed and all over the place and he doesn’t seem to know what his point is or how to get to it. I believe that he uses his fame and wealth to try to win the people over and claims that he is the best there is for this position therefore earning their trust.
The Al-Qaeda offshoot ISIS, has made its way through Iraq and Syria. This new terror campaign appears to have been rolled out with a decades old objective, which is wrought with violence, propaganda and destabilization. But what are the reasons behind these acts of terror and violence? How is it possible to stop terrorism? What is the future of the endless conflict between Islamic extremism and modernity? The last one is particularly burning, since it touches an issue, entwined in ever-lasting controversy, aggression and needless carnage - the issue of Islamic fundamentalism and its extreme manifestation - terrorism.
The United Nations Security Council was set up in order to uphold and enforce the utopian ideals of international peace and security. This essay will argue that the UNSC is hampered in its goal by structural issues that impede international cooperation efforts for collective global peace and security. One of the issues examined in this essay are the adaptive failures of the UNSC in response to both global shifts in international relations philosophy and changes in power structure and politics. Another issue that will be argued is the flaws within the composition of the UNSC, especially in its ideas of regional representation and its primarily undemocratic setup. This essay will also argue that the decision making process of the UNSC is flawed due to the veto power given to the P5 members of the Security Council allowing them to have the means to use the UN as a in pursuit of self-interests, and that the agent role fulfilled by the US and its allies also allows them to pursue national interests.
Vladimir Putin started his speech from the gratifying and appreciation of Crimean people’s desire for self-determination, calling them ‘’the Russian citizens’’. Despite the calm manner of speech of Vladimir Putin, precisely this speech was really epic, intellectually heavy and emotional. The whole audience was responding to him by emotional applauds and sometimes even standing. This says about the great inspiration and approval because of happening truly historical event.
Russia’s president, Vladimir Putin, wanted to take over Ukraine, Crimea specifically for geopolitical reasons. Vladimir Putin approved military action in Ukraine because it “reserves the right to defend its interests and the Russian speaking people who live there” (Saeed, Gu...
