NEW YORK, June 26, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres is calling for a multilateral level of governance with the teeth to function as an instrument of global governance where it is needed.
The problem is that todays multilateralism lacks scale, ambition and teeth, Guterres said during a Thursday press conference on the launch of the UNs comprehensive response to COVID-19 the novel coronavirus that originated in Wuhan, China.
And some of the instruments that do have teeth, show little or no appetite to bite, as has recently been the case with the difficulties faced by the Security Council.
In the interdependent world of today, national interests are not easily separated from the global good, Guterres said.
Moreover, economic and social upheaval caused by the coronavirus pandemic has laid bare severe and systemic inequalities across the world, and underscored its fragility in the face of climate crisis, the threat of nuclear war, and lawlessness in cyberspace, he warned.
We must reimagine the way nations cooperate, Guterres contended.
We need a networked multilateralism, bringing together the UN system, regional organizations, international financial institutions and others, he said.
And we need an effective multilateralism that can function as an instrument of global governance where it is needed.
He reiterated the same message at a virtual press conference on June 26 to mark the 75th anniversary of the adoption of the UN Charter in San Francisco.

Go be a Globalist somewhere else.
Defund the UN!
Yeah....global governance like their Blue Helmets and how women of the Congo were treated.
This means that Biden and Pelosi dont meet the qualifications.
The UN has never won a war, but knows how to squander money, rape innocents in 3rd-world countries, and put actual genocidal murderers on Human Rights Commissions.
We should cut the gonads out of every UN employee for this.
Kister President, throw these commie vermin out of the US and stop funding their globalism.
Are they tone deaf ? HELLO, McFly...BREXIT ????
The Chinese Communist Party thinks this is how they will control the World
You might want to research the term, “liberty teeth”.

Not to mention the sex slave trade they are involved in. Keep it up and someone will show some teeth.
Why is global governance only for Western countries? Go save Uganda or some othe shit hole that might actually need it
Go scratch.
Time to purge this scurge from our shores.
