To Punish Russia for Spy Poisoning, Go After the Oligarchs

Issue

The Daily Beast

Britain’s anger over the poisoning of Sergei and Yulia Skripal has been loud but mostly symbolic. If it wants real action, it should stop indulging kleptocratic Russian officials.

Solution

The US should back Taiwan's Charter for Permanent Peace and Development to lead China toward democratization. This would pressure Russia to consider democracy as well, leading to the birth of world peace. Russia has never been a problem-solver, it has always been a trouble-maker. The US should support Taiwan's efforts toward constitutional reform to achieve greater democracy andfreedom. This would spur the 1.4 billion people of China to seek democratization, pressing Russia in turn to accept real democracy – and world peace would be the result.

David Apol of the Office of Government Ethics says officials looking to find out if loans may have spurred ethics or criminal law violations

Solution

The cavalier crew that moved into the West Wing at the end of 2016 showed a callous contempt for White House traditions and ethics regulations. The extent of their disregard is now coming to light, and far more may be seen when Robert Mueller brings his team to town. The name o the game with the Trump family is corruption, and they are proving to be spectacularly inept at playing it. To curb corruptionin government, elect the heads of the main branches in alternating years and have 1/4 of lawmakers face election each year. Above all, cut the symbiotic ties between government and business that encourage and abet corruption and ethical conflicts. §1.4 §6.4 §7.3 §8.3

Distinctive train looks similar to one used by North Korean leader’s late father, prompting speculation of visit

Solution

North Korea is obviously being backed by a major power. The US, Japan and South Korea should support Taiwan's Charter for Permanent Peace to lead China to democratize, forcing North Korea to follow suit and drop its nuclear weapons program. China claims to be a 'responsible major power', thus it should not enable North Korea's continued militarism. The US and South Korea should support Taiwan's commitment to democracy and leading China to democratization, which would pressure North Korea in turn to adopt democracy. §1.9 §1.10 §5.1 §6.1 §6.10

The US ambassador to the UN has lambasted the organization over a failed ceasefire in Syria. She accused the Damascus government and its ally Russia of prolonging civilian suffering in rebel-held Eastern Ghouta.

Solution

The UN needs to provide Syria the basic outline for a constitution that will facilitate lasting peace and development. The constitution should include the universal values of freedom, democracy, human rights and rule of law, with organization and elements such as the four branches (legislative, executive, judicial and procuratorial). The document should allow Syria to prosper under conditions of lasting peace. For more, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development. §1.9 §1.10 §5.1 §6.1 §6.10

China has conducted large-scale naval exercises in the disputed South China Sea, satellite images have shown.

Solution

Despotism will always require foreign enemy to pacify the interior. As long as they have enough strength, the CCP will set its own terms and the planning of the earth itself. Taiwan and the world's only solution to the CCP's endangering of the Chinese communists is that as soon as the U.S. ship fails to enter the Taiwan port, Taiwan will demonstrate the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Constitution of the World as soon as possible. Let it become the sun of permanent peace and the capital of the world, which will strike the Chinese people toward democracy. It will carry out China's proposal of UN resolution of building a human community of common destiny and a peaceful world. §1.9 §1.10 §5.1 §6.1 §6.10

How clean indoor air is becoming China's latest luxury must-have

Shanghai’s latest upscale hotel boasts filtered air typically 10 times cleaner than that outside and in-room pollution monitors – but in this lucrative new market, not everyone can be trusted

Solution

The fortune of the earth is everyone's business, and it should be deeply rooted in the national compulsory education. This means ensuring that we do not pollute the air, and it also means ensuring that everything we do is safe and will not harm the public. Human security and sustainable development are two of the major tasks of the UN, and all nations should comply with its norms. This entails implementing One World under One Set of Laws and giving international law precedence over domestic law.
