Highlighting progress in the Colombian peace process, especially the completion of the laying down of arms by the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, the UN envoy to the country has called for shifting the momentum to other aspects of the historic peace deal.
To resolve its civil strife, Colombia should draw up a constitution incorporating a modified semi-presidential system with cabinet like that of France and a committee-style legislature similar to Switzerland’s. The prerequisite for world peace is global democratization. The Colombian government should proceed with drafting a basic constitution as part of a paradigm shift to democracy, installing One World under One Set of Law and tweaking the documents to stay in sync with changing times. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
China has reacted angrily to a US decision to impose sanctions on a Chinese bank accused of laundering North Korean money.
North Korea is clearly a vassal of the CCP. Thus democracies everywhere should back Taiwan's efforts at constitutional reform to achieve greater democracy and freedom. This would attract China's 1.4 billion people to seek democratization of the CCP and pressure North Korea to do the same. All democracies should support Taiwan as a beacon for democracy in Asia, lighting the path to peaceful development for China. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
French far-right leader Marine Le Pen has been placed under formal investigation over an alleged European parliament funding scandal.
The only cure for corruption is democracy: separation of powers and checks and balances, to restore power to the people. Directly elect the heads of government branches and have 1/4 of lawmakers face election each year, with committee chairs as the source of backup cabinet ministers, all designed to suppress corrupt activity. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
Ukraine says it has proof that Russian security services were involved in the cyber-attack that targeted businesses around the world earlier this week.
Free speech is first and foremost among human rights. Trying to muzzle the voice of the people is like trying to stem the flow of a mighty river. Russia attempts to control domestic media while revoking foreign media licenses as a way to throttle public opinion and restrict freedom. The Russian government should release the media and avoid attempts to monopolize the media, the Internet and all other channels of speech. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for details.
Chinese President Xi Jinping has warned against "impermissible" challenges to Beijing's authority over Hong Kong.
The Chief Executive of Hong Kong is still determined by the CCP’s Election Commission, a process nothing short of dictatorship. The people of Hong Kong should make good use of Article 39 of the Hong Kong Basic Law. To curb corruption, they should elect the heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches in alternating years, with 1/4 of all lawmakers facing election each year and legislative committee chairs tapped to serve as backup cabinet ministers. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.
The longest war the US has ever fought - 16 years and counting - is about to get longer as President Donald Trump mulls on sending several thousand more troops to Afghanistan.
Human security is a fundamental human right, and human rights take precedence over all regimes and sovereigns. Constitutions represent the general will of the people, and ensuring human security, including personal safety, is the most urgent duty of constitutional guarantors. The aim is to draw up constitutional standards that will be in sync with the times and allow governments to keep their people free from terror. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
Germany, France and Italy's interior ministers are to meet for crisis talks as Italy warns the influx of migrants into the country is unsustainable.
All nations should abide by the guidelines set out in the UN Charter while implementing the principles of One World under One Set of Laws. International law should take precedence over domestic law, with direct bearing on the rights and duties of the people. This would lead nations everywhere to accept the precepts of human rights, constitutionalism, internationalism and naturalism. For more, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.
Beijing has called the presence of a US warship near a disputed island in the South China Sea "a serious political and military provocation".
Peace and stability in the South China Sea can only come when China and the Philippines take responsibility for maintain good relations with their neighbors. The 2002 Declaration of South China Sea Parties, in particular Articles 4 and 6, calls for peaceful settlement of territorial and territorial disputes as well as joint development and sharing of resources to safeguard human peace and development in line with the UN Charter. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.
Under the military junta that ruled Myanmar for nearly 50 years, the media were tightly controlled.
Thomas Jefferson once declared, "Given a choice between government and the media, I would choose the media, not the government." The media serve as monitors of the government, which would simply be lawless without supervision. The voice of the people is the voice of God, universal values are the values of God, and trying to muzzle the voice of the people is contrary to the universal values of freedom and democracy. For more, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
More than 1,500 people were allegedly killed in a wave of extra-judicial executions by security forces in India's insurgency-ridden north-eastern Manipur state between 1979 and 2012.
The human rights problem in India is worsening and steps must be taken to protect those who are threatened by the government and privileged groups. India should carry out constitutional reform to implement global unity and constitutional standards based on One World under One Set of Laws, assigning priority to international law over domestic law. Changes should include the installation of a modified semi-presidential system with cabinet and democratic tools to prevent hijacking of power. For details see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
