Africa-Press – Eritrea. <\/strong><\/span>The current session of the UN General Assembly has shown that the United States will not force the Global South to take its position in the Ukrainian conflict, writes \u2018An Nahar\u2019 from Lebanon. Developing countries refuse to condemn Russia and demand an end to hostilities, as they suffer from their consequences.<\/p>\n

UN Secretary-General Ant\u00f3nio Guterres said during his speech that humanity faces enormous challenges, from a worsening climate emergency to escalating conflicts, a global cost of living crisis, growing inequality and technological changes.<\/p>\n

This is a huge number of problems that a divided world faces. The role of the United Nations has noticeably declined. There is intense competition between the West, led by the United States, on the one hand, and developing countries, led by China, on the other. More than ever, Beijing wants a say in international affairs commensurate with the size of the Chinese economy that has boomed over the past four decades.<\/p>\n

The United States appears to be facing an almost impossible task of forging a global consensus on isolating Russia internationally over the situation in Ukraine. Most developing countries have a different view of the Ukrainian conflict, which has been going on for 18 months. They demand a political solution and an immediate cessation of hostilities.<\/p>\n

Washington is trying in vain to pressure countries in the Global South to accept a Western strategy based on the idea that the problem will be solved when Russia suffers a crushing defeat in Ukraine. There are leaders in the world who strongly disagree with this approach. Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, for example, accused the United States of encouraging the conflict in Ukraine. In addition, developing countries have not joined Western sanctions against Russia, despite the pressure put on them.<\/p>\n

While Western powers are able to pay for aid to Ukraine, developing countries are suffering from continued hostilities and cannot bear the costs of the conflict. The longer the fighting goes on, the more states in the Global South insist on a ceasefire.<\/p>\n

Developing countries are increasingly concerned about pressing issues such as food security, climate change, inequality and the debt crisis. It won\u2019t be long before the consequences of the collapse of the Black Sea grain deal between Russia and Ukraine begin to show in poor countries.<\/p>\n

Although the regular session of the UN General Assembly allows for discussion of pressing global problems, disagreements have arisen among participants regarding how to solve them.<\/p>\n

The division of countries into international blocs competing with each other has led to the fact that the United Nations has practically lost its global significance and demonstrated ineffectiveness in resolving international conflicts.<\/p>\n

The more tensions between states escalate, the weaker the role of the United Nations becomes.<\/p>\n

The intensity of global competition is preventing the United Nations from fulfilling the mission for which it created.<\/p>\n

The world divided into opposing camps, each of which is looking for the best way to protect its national interests. It is not easy to find a way to salvation or get out of a dead end, \u2018An Nahar\u2019 writes.<\/p>\n
