ANALYSIS/ DW: The UN is on the verge of collapse!

The date of February 24, 2022 in New York, when the Security Council called an emergency session, has yet to come. "From the bottom of my heart", UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres calls on the Russian president to stop his troops.

But while the Security Council is consulting, Putin gives the order for the tanks to march. It could not be more clearly shown how little Putin appreciates this instance. The American ambassador to the SC, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, expressed shock at the time.

"At the exact time when we are sitting here asking for peace, Putin is issuing a declaration of war - in complete disregard of the responsibility of this Council."

Would the Security Council be out of order?'

UN expert Richard Gowan from the "Crisis Group" Institute is of the opinion that the biggest crisis for the UN since the war in Iraq has brought the Security Council to the brink of collapse. "Everyone knew that Russia would use its veto power in the Security Council to reject any criticism of this aggression," says Gowan. "But no one knew what was happening with UN diplomacy. And if the Security Council were to go out of business."

The United Nations system was discredited. Demands for a SC reform are becoming louder and louder, even from the USA. But no more can be done than statements, says Gowan. "Everyone knew that the Security Council could not exclude Russia." Just as he could not exclude the US after the march on Iraq in 2003.

At least the SC managed to function beyond the war in Ukraine: from helping people in Afghanistan to engaging in Syria or sanctioning armed groups in Haiti. UN organizations work in Ukraine, such as UNICEf and the one for refugees. Guterres himself is the architect of the grain agreement between Ukraine and Russia.

Expert Richard Gowan says it is interesting to note that Russia has avoided completely undermining the UN. "This shows that Moscow will keep the UN open as a channel to talk to the West."

Between the fronts of a new Cold War

On March 2, the UN General Assembly overwhelmingly condemned the Russian attack on Ukraine. An emotional moment for many in the hall, who took out their mobile phones to film such an event. But more than moral signals were not sent by the Assembly. Moscow is also trying here to break up this alliance.

Shumë vende afrikane dhe aziatike që janë të varura nga Rusia, ndjehen të futura në mes të fronteve të një Luftë të re të Ftohtë, thekson kreu i Programit të Zhvillimit të OKB-së, Achim Steiner. “Kudo që hedhim sytë në radarin gjeopolitik, kjo luftë ose ka krijuar më shumë skepticizëm ose ka zgjuar plagët e vjetra. Kjo luftë shkatërron pikërisht atë që kemi nevojë në këtë moment të historisë. aftësinë si kombe, si bashkësi ndërkombëtare për të vepruar së bashku. E kundërta ndodh këtë moment.”

Në rast shkallëzimi fundoset diplomacia e OKB-së

Vitin e ardhshëm shumë gjëra do të varen nga ajo, nëse fuqitë botërore do të kontribuojnë që Kombet e Bashkuara të bëhen sërish platforma, ku të gjendet zgjidhja për këtë konflikt. Steiner thekson rrezikun e një “vakuumi”, që krijohet, kur blloqet politike dhe palët në luftime nuk mund apo nuk duan të negociojnë me njëra-tjetrën.kjo situatë duhet të marrë fund. I këtij mendimi është edhe eksperti i OKB-së, Richard Gowan.

Nëse lutimet do merrnin fund me një përfundim të pranueshëm për Ukrainën, bashkësia ndërkombëtare mund të marrë sërish një rol të fortë. “OKB mund të luajë rol për rindërtimin, të vëzhgojë tërheqjen e trupave ruse  dhe Këshilli i Sigurimit mund të miratojë rezolutat për formësimin e një marrëveshjeje të paqes.”

But if the fighting escalates and Putin uses nuclear weapons, then there is a risk that the UN diplomacy will eventually be silent, Gowan believes. Because then no one will speak Russian anymore./ DW
