Nothing is perfect. But my statement that "war is made redundant by global trade", still remains.
The problem is that some countries ( eg. China) are not playing by the same rules and limiting exposure to downsides of global trade ( by protectionism) that they still do stupid things ( eg. The problems between China and India currently).
Both countries are not already in a war, because they are trading and it would hurt both economies. It's even mentioned in a recent article of the current conflict.
I'll give you another POV and that is that the UN is pretty new ( 20 years) and the biggest positive change in the last century. There are problems ofc, but that doesn't undermine my statement.
The second biggest change was the fall of the USSR for more democracy. And Russia is still struggling with this after 30 years.
- nix23 6y ago>UN is pretty new ( 20 years) The UN was established in 1945...you know after that 2. World-war. >And Russia is still struggling with this after 30 years Yes, because Russia never had any democracy, its not easy to establish that fast, and 30 Years is a really short time.
- NicoJuicy 6y agoOw lol, serious mistake here. EU is pretty new ( 20 years) PS. According to current observations. Russia is far from "a democracy". A lot of the countries that seperated from USSR in 1990 ( even Hungary), are doing a much better job.
