The UN lacks Ambition, Scale, and Teeth. Institutions like the UNSC have Teeth but No Bite'

Raisina Dialogue 2022 | The Doctrine of Lapse: Lessons From the UN Era

Multilateralism is under attack. The postwar system, with the United Nations and related organisations serving as its bedrock, has failed to respond to multiple crises – climate change, the pandemic, trade, or preventing great power aggression. Some world leaders have even called for its dissolution in the face of this impotence. #Raisina2022 #ShashiTharoor #UnitedNations

As confrontations brew in the Indo-Pacific and in Old Europe, is the post-war model of great power relations still relevant? What place do institutions like the UN and its founding principles have in an age in which great power contestation is multipolar, and overarching narratives are distrusted? In our digitalised and corporatised present, sovereign states are weakened – how can institutions structured around sovereign states retain relevance? To the point of irrelevance? Is it dangerous for inert UN institutions to be regarded as the highest supranational arbiters while failing to fulfill their role?

Ararat Mirzoyan, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Armenia
Daniel Carmon, Senior Research Fellow, International Institute for Counter-Terrorism, Israel; Former Ambassador of Israel to India
Lakshmi Puri, Former Assistant Secretary General, United Nations, India
Charles Kupchan, Senior Fellow, Council on Foreign Relations; Professor of International Relations, Georgetown University, United States

HAIL RAISINA DIALOGUE

[funfact]

Really awesome initiative to express opinions about anyone on anytopic...without any interruptions ❤

[musicntravelblog]

I definitely think that the UN must go through a reform and it is high time to decentralise the world power.

[themahesh]

This dialogue should keep happening every year .... This is the best platform.

[saurabhpahade]

Why is Shashi Tharoor a moderator here?
Shouldn't he be a panelist in this?
He worked in UN.
Being just a moderator feels like something below his pay grade.

Edit: I love to hear him talk and have great respect for him. But I feel like if panel would have consisted of his counterparts or ministers for other countries I would have understood but...
Good Effort by MEA and ORF though...

Locking policy of UN, Locking policy of Tunnel should stop

I really applaused dr sashsi knowledge and understanding awareness around the world..

[sarojdewasi]

I THINK LIMITING THE MAJOR SESSSION OF DISCUSSION TO PANAL MEMBER AND NOT INCLUDING THE ODIENCE SPECIALLY MEDIA AND ANSWRING THEIR QUESTIONS ALSO KEEPING THE VERY TIME LIMITATION LEADS THE SESSION TO BEING UNABLE TO FULFILL THE VERY PURPOSE OF SUCH SESSION THAT IS TO SEE THE ISSUE AS IT IS.

[tonystarc]

UN should be free from power hold of any nation and should be truly stand it's basic principles of justice, freedom, rule of law, peace and tranquility.

[ishankanwar]

U.N. rules apply to just weaker countries.

[muhammedameenkp]

It's shameful to have a very bad quality camera for a fine program like this....feel sorry for this

[premprasad]

Why single out Russian invasion ? Did the UN do anything when the Americans invaded Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan ?

[bharatpanwar]

For sake orf!!! improve your video quality, its sooo poor even at 720p...worst. and even the audio like tearing sound!! Plz improve them!!

[upadhyayrathiraj]

What about US-UK giving two hoots to UN on Iraq? Strange selectivity and agenda-setting.

[uvg]

Thank you older US leaders for building good things.
The newer generations have become progressively more apathetic. Spielbergs film ready player one and Adam mc kays don't look up chronicle the general laziness and apathy which is plaguing our societies.

We are also becoming stupider by the day.

Krishna or whatever you want to call god help us.

[virnamisra]

What measures are you taking esp in India setting up a UNICEF for lack of laws for quick child parental relief unitting families in lawless lands etc urgently required to be implemented

[seenreddy]
