".
This resolution either omits or lends tacit support to the ambitions and attempts at transforming the UN into an instrument dominated by the major capitalist powers led by the USA. It also glosses over imperialism’s aggression and interference, which, where possible, is conducted multilaterally.
Hence the measures proposed by the USA aimed at exploiting human rights, at imposing its ‘right’ to interfere and to resort to force, and at attacking the people and the sovereignty of (other) countries, under the ‘umbrella’ and ‘(pseudo)legitimacy’ of the UN.
The ‘Millennium Development Goals’ are referred to, yet no mention is made of progress in implementing those goals, such as reducing hunger, poverty and child mortality, guaranteeing access to water, health, education, and promoting equality.
There are no measures aimed at disarmament and the elimination of weapons of mass destruction, having been blocked by the USA, with the complicity of its allies.
I also wish to highlight the drift towards federalism, which was defeated in the no vote on the draft EU Treaty, but to which the resolution gives succour, in its reference to the ‘prospect of acquiring a joint European seat on the Security Council’ and the ‘merging’ of cabinets and delegations from different countries into a ‘common EU external delegation’."@en1
