President Mbeki: South Africa will change the UN

WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

President Mbeki: South Africa will change the UN

[Oh! This is clever. Now they want to “democratise” the United Nations because the “poor” are not represented. This is funny. The Third World nations want to take over the UN.

Their real purpose… I will bet… is so that they can use it as an international platform from which to bash the USA and Europe!

I love it… these rulers of failed tin-pot nations, who can’t run their own countries now want to rule the world and tell the successful nations how to live their lives. The tail wants to wag the dog.

Somebody should tell them to get up off their butts and go back home and shut their mouths until the countries they rule (including South Africa), have some semblance of deceny and order. Jan]

Johannesburg – South Africa will play its part in reforming the United Nations, President Thabo Mbeki said in Chile on Tuesday.

“We are aware that the secretary-general has initiated bold moves to revitalise and democratise the United Nations and … we will play our part to ensure that we transform this world body to be a true representative of all the peoples of the world,” he said.

Mbeki was speaking in Santiago in Chile on receiving an honorary degree from the Salon de Diputados.

UN secretary-general Kofi Annan in March proposed an overhaul of the world body, including an increase in the number of seats of the Security Council to 24 from the present 15.

African countries want two permanent seats on the UN Security Council with South Africa, Nigeria and Egypt lobbying for those positions.

Mbeki said the UN had been ineffective because of the disparities in power between poor and rich countries.

“It is also true that while the United Nations has always had the potential to be a ‘new seat of power’, this has not been possible because of the structural fault in the international system of governance.

“Indeed the question should be asked as to who represents the poor globally?”

Mbeki said developing nations, such as South Africa and Chile, and their respective regional bodies, the African Union and the Community of South American Nations, should strengthen their ties in response to this disproportionate power.
