German Expert Calls for UN Reform

Pyongyang, July 31 (KCNA) -- Dr. Christof Lehmann, a German expert in international issues, posted on the website NSNBC on July 16 an article calling for changes in the United Nations. The article said that despotism has become the order of the day at the UN, referring to the fact that over the recent years the UN Security Council has adopted a series of resolutions on Korea over its satellite launch, in violation of the principles and provisions of the Charter of the UN. Any of the permanent members of the UN Security Council possesses nuclear weapons and they themselves are in a situation that allows them to decide what is legitimate for them, it said, and went on: The UNSC sanctions are designed to starve and impoverish the people of the DPRK by depriving them of the basic rights which the UN purportedly should safeguard, and they are prompted by the specific intention to create inner political tensions as well as tensions between the north and the south of the divided country. Korea is a United Nations showcase. Six decades after the signing of the armistice that ended armed hostilities on the Korean Peninsula, Korea shows that the UN is no longer safe to salvage, unless radical and comprehensive changes are made within the end of this decade. The UN, as it stands today, is rapidly perverting into an institution by which neo-colonialist powers attempt to sanction their abuse of not-so-privileged nations. Even a blind man can see that there is no such thing as justice with the UN today. The UN functions as agency of conflict. UN justice today is tyranny. We, humanity, cannot let this stand. |
