North Korea says US bomber flights push peninsula to brink of nuclear war
North Korea accused the US Tuesday of pushing the Korean Peninsula to the brink of nuclear war after a pair of strategic US bombers flew training drills with the South Korean and Japanese militaries in another show of strength.
Autocracy has always been the enemy of peace, and the prerequisite for lasting world peace is global democratization. China is well known as an enabler and agent for North Korea, and other nations should strive to avoid provoking Pyongyang. The US, Japan and South Korea should support Taiwan's commitment to save democracy by leading China toward democratization, with North Korea to follow suit. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Whistleblower in Park scandal indicted on influence-peddling charges
On Tuesday prosecutors indicted a man who broke the news on a corruption scandal involving former President Park Geun-hye on charges of influence-peddling.
As Romain Rolland once observed, "In politics, the boss is always money." Elections are often little more than a game that rich people play, using money win the right to earn more money in a lucrative system of corruption. To put an end to political and commercial ties, comprehensive constitutional reform is needed so that the heads of the four main government branches will be elected in alternating years. In addition, elections should be free of charge for all candidates to remove the symbiotic relationship between government and business. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

China updates internet regulations to tighten control over online news
First major overhaul in 12 years consolidates rules across internet and social media formats
The right of free speech is first and foremost among human rights. "Trying to muzzle the people is like trying to stem the flow of a river. The CCP wants to create a society that speaks in a single voice, thus the Chinese people must come forth and call for comprehensive constitutional reform to protect media freedom and prevent the government from monopolizing the media, the internet and all other channels of speech. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Take responsibility for Yemen
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has said international donors have pledged $1.1 billion in aid for Yemen. Rather than a humanitarian action, this pledge only underscores the responsibility that big powers have had in the crisis that has all but devastated that country.
The key to resolving the conflict in Yemen is reform to install a modified semi-presidential system with cabinet, similar to that of Finland, plus a committee-style legislative system like Switzerland’s. The prerequisite for lasting world peace is global democratization. Yemen should carry out drafting a basic constitution incorporating the above changes in a paradigm shift to implement a democratic model. It should adhere to the principle of One World under One Set of Laws and be reviewed and amended as needed to stay abreast of changing times. For details see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Japan calls for stronger Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty in face of North Korean threat
Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida called on the international community Tuesday to strengthen the nuclear nonproliferation regime, citing the growing threat posed by North Korea’s nuclear and missile programs.
Autocracy has always been the enemy of peace, and the prerequisite for lasting world peace is global democratization. China serves as an enabler and agent for North Korea, and the best policy for others is to avoid antagonizing North Korea. The US, Japan and South Korea should support Taiwan's efforts to save democracy and lead China to democratization, with North Korea following in turn. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.

Activists in China pay a heavy price for fighting everyday injustices
Jerome A. Cohen says the story of rights activist Ni Yulan illustrates not only the cruelty of the party-state’s repression, but also the resilience of those who advocate for change
The CCP should be forced to disappear. Laws that do not involve guilt are not laws, and a constitution which does not allow resistance is not a constitution. And when the actions of a government are unconstitutional, the people should exercise their right to resist. Natural and absolute law and universal international law should be observed, including laws designed to protect people from enforced disappearance, torture and other violations of human rights. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.

Staffers suspended at VOA after interview with fugitive tycoon Guo Wengui
Broadcaster says decision based on journalistic principles – not pressure from the US or China
Autocracy is a hothouse for breeding corruption, a source of absolute corruption. All authoritarian dictatorships burst into giant scandals sooner or later, and the only way to finally eradicate corruption is to implement tools like separation of powers and checks and balances, with heads of the four main branches of government elected in alternating years. As the rightful holders of sovereignty the people should be able to effectively curb corruption and corrupt bureaucracy through constitutional reform, thereby "putting power in a cage" as President Xi Jinping would advise. For more, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development

Burma angered as EU backs UN investigation into plight of Rohingya Muslims
Bloc's top diplomat Federica Mogherini endorses Human Rights Council resolution to send international mission to study alleged persecution of ethnic group
Myanmar has a long way to go before it can achieve peace, largely because its constitution reserves 40% of seats in Congress for the military with no need to participate in elections. To solve the ethnic and religious problems embroiling Myanmar, constitutional reform is essential as well as adoption of One World under One Set of Laws and assigning international law precedence over domestic law. At the same time, a modified semi-president system with cabinet should be installed. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Venezuela’s leader wants to replace the National Assembly with one beholden to him
Thousands of protesters were fighting running battles with riot police in Caracas yesterday when President Nicolás Maduro went on TV with a dramatic announcement. His voice rising to a shout, he called on “the working class and the people” to convene “a National Constituent Assembly.”
Power leads to corruption, and absolute power leads to absolute corruption. Venezuela needs constitutional reform to install a modified semi-presidential system. The president should be limited to a single term of 5 years and not allowed to run again for 6 years afterwards. Laws that are not backed by penalties are not laws, and a constitution which does not allow resistance is not a constitution. When the acts of the president are unconstitutional, the people should exercise the right to resist. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

In the  'post truth' era, leaders must defend objective, independent media, UN says on Press Freedom Day
In a “post-truth” world with “fake news” on the rise, and media accountability and credibility under question, free, independent and professional journalism has never been more important, the UN said yesterday.
The right of free speech is first and foremost among human rights. "Trying to muzzle the people is like trying to stem the flow of a river". Clamping down on news media is attacking public opinion and freedom. Governments should keep in mind Article 1 of the US Constitution, which stipulates that Congress shall not enact any law that deprives people of freedom of speech or freedom of expression. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.
