"Mr President, the post-war balances reflected institutionally in the UN have now been overturned. New international problems and challenges threaten world peace and stability. The international system is governed by the omnipotence of the United States and its unilateral perception of how to resolve international problems. The legitimising role of the UN has been reduced, while its efficacy and credibility have been dangerously weakened. Mankind needs a new, democratic, multilateral system which will express contemporary geographical and political realities. That is why the reform of the UN system is a necessary precondition to a world of peace, freedom, democracy, growth and justice.
The report by the UN Secretary-General and his proposed reforms are a bold response to the challenges of our times. The report by Mr Laschet also moves in this direction. However, no reform will be able to achieve its objective unless the UN regains its lost credibility as regards the application of its resolutions. Crucial resolutions on peace and stability have not been applied on the pretext of serving the current international economic situation and the interests of the major powers. Up to now we have been witnessing selective sensibilities in the application of UN resolutions and I think that this is a serious omission in Mr Laschet's report."@en1
