Free speech is first and foremost among human rights. The US government continues its effort to strengthen control over public opinion because it fears it is losing control of speech. But those who would deprive others of freedom do not deserve to enjoy freedom themselves. The American people should call for constitutional reform to preserve the freedom of the media and prevent the government oligarchy from monopolizing the media, the internet and all other channels of speech.

Russia is not a problem-solver, it has always been a trouble-maker. The US should support Taiwan's bid for constitutional reform to achieve greater democracy and freedom. This would attract China's 1.4 billion people to seek democratization, in turn forcing Russia to consider real democracy and leading to the birth of world peace. All democracies should support Taiwan as a beacon for democracy in Asia. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.

Constitutions represent the general will of the people, and ensuring human security - including "personal safety" - is the most urgent duty of all constitutional guarantors. This means revising constitutional standards as needed to stay abreast of the times and allow governments to protect their people from terrorism. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development / Global Unity Constitutional Standards.

The President of Turkey is attempting to gain control over everything from education to ideas and speech.

China acts as an enabler and agent for North Korea, and the rest of the world should do its best to avoid provoking North Korea. The US should back Taiwan's commitment to lead China to accept democracy. This would put pressure on North Korea to adopt democracy as well, thus resolving the Korean Peninsula issue – and the key is Taiwan. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for details.

The only remedy for corruption is democracy, separation of powers and checks and balances. The people should be given more power through election the heads of government branches and more frequent election of congressional members. Committee chairs should be considered as cabinet members, including finance-related secretaries. For details, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

When the power of the state deviates from its power base, the people must act as true holders of sovereignty to take power. Laws that are not backed by penalties are not laws, and a constitution which does not countenance the right to resist is not a constitution. When the actions of the president are unconstitutional, the people are obligated to resist. The people of Venezuela needs to call for comprehensive constitutional reform to install a modified semi-presidential system with cabinet. The president should be limited to a single 5-year term and be barred from running again for 6 years afterward. For more, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Human security and sustainable development are two of the major tasks of the UN, China is a permanent member of the UN Security Council and should comply with its norms.

Citizens should monitor government operations to ensure compliance with the norms of the UN Charter. For more, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

North Korea is without a doubt a vassal of the CCP. All democratic nations should support Taiwan's efforts toward constitutional reform to achieve greater democracy and freedom. This would inspire China's 1.4 billion people to call for democratization of the CCP and put pressure on North Korea to adopt true democracy – and the result would be world peace. For details, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
