Can Asia reinvigorate multilateralism? : Comments

By Ioan Voicu, published 17/10/2025

As wars, inequality, and climate threats deepen, Asian leaders told the UN it must reform or risk irrelevance - solidarity, they warned, is the only way forward.

"We can only hope that this potential will be translated into tangible realities in a not too distant future."
- It's big of Trump to say that when his country creates all the conflict.

I guess it all comes down to what worldview you hold.

Does one wish to retain the old Unipolar world order?
(Like taking a trip on the fateful Titanic)
U.S. hegemony, and their 'rule based order'
Where they make the rules, hold everyone accountable with threats, blackmail (sanctions), regime change and military intervention, breaks all their own rules...
Or the Multipolar (or multinodal) world order.

Attempting to retain the unipolar world order is about as futile as Caligula attacking the Sea, maybe we should try to fight the sun from setting each day too.

BRICS is over half the worlds population, and will expand.
G7 has 10% of the world population and is in dire straits.

America still thinks it is the 'exceptional' and 'indispensible' nation, when it's a rotting corpse of it's former self, and hasn't woken up to the fact that the world is getting along fine without it.
It's no longer a blessing to the world, but a stinking liability to world peace and harmony.

It's the U.S. trying to make everyone take sides, and its tariffs, conflicts and 'every-man-for-themselves' protectionism.

The “sad reality” is that, although the UN crisis is “widely recognised”, member countries are still financially supporting (wasting their people's money) the corrupt and dangerous organisation.

What to do about it? Stop supporting it and its leader who made the stupid comment about the world “boiling”.

This article provides a compelling overview of the General Assembly debate, effectively highlighting the crucial role of multilateralism, solidarity, and inclusiveness in addressing global challenges. Dr. Voicu thoughtfully showcases diverse perspectives from small and large nations, emphasizing how cooperation and collective action are essential for peace, sustainable development, and global justice. Excellent article, thank you!

The UN will disintegrate to many of the splinters of UN are corrupt as we seen in Gaza.
The US was the world policeman and has risen again to be the worlds policeman.
Does any one have a problem with that ?
The US has suffered a gigantic corruption problem from politicians selling out the US for personal gain.
Why did Trump now there was a deep state operating, yet he people voted for the democrats. OF cause it was fake voting.
My experience with Asians are they a gentle persons and like women of old style who were vey caring and family orientated.
