[UNOCT] Japan's Political Faux Pas

Written by KCNA

A dangerous diplomatic disaster

During a United Nations Office of Counter Terrorism (UNOCT) conference earlier today, the delegate of Japan compared the current situation in Afghanistan to the dark web.

This absurd comparison only has merit in the sense that in both these situations, there are many groups with conflicting interests.

However, this is where the similarities end.

The horrifying abuse of human rights in Afghanistan is not remotely comparable to the dark web.

This comparison victimises and exonerates the criminals who haunt the dark web, while blaming the innocent citizens who are fearing for their lives.

These malefactors actively choose to endanger both themselves and others, while the people of Afghanistan have absolutely no say in the matter.

In an act that reflects Japan’s callous attitude regarding the crisis, the “noble” country has left more than 500 Afghans stranded, including embassy staff and their family members, while they live in a state of terror and uncertainty.

It is shocking that a representative of a country that prioritizes diplomacy would use such a provocative tone in the face of a humanitarian crisis.

Unlike Japan, North Korea stands with the suffering in Afghanistan, and recognises their struggles.

Our country is making an effort to improve the lives of the suffering, as we empathise with their trials and tribulations.

Japan would benefit by emulating our approach, especially after the political disaster today.

In addition, Japan should consider taking action to ameliorate its policy of diplomacy, considering how easy it was for their delegates to make light of such a calamity.

This does not bode well for the future of Japan’s diplomatic relations.

[UNHCR] Exiting Afghanistan: Biden’s Big Blunder

Written by Wall Street Journal Upon American troops’ evacuation from Afghanistan, Kunduz and other provincial capitals fell to the Taliban within just 48 hours. On April 14, 2:29PM, President Biden announced that “more and endless American military force could not create or sustain a durable Afghan government”. A bold claim, especially since following American troops’ evacuation from Afghanistan, Kunduz and other provincial capitals proceeded to fall to the Taliban within a mere 48 hours. Biden’s controversial decision to pull out American troops from Afghanistan was not received well internationally, with news agencies such as BBC and NPR  stating that “As Kabul falls, Biden backlash grows” and that “Republicans were scathing about the White House’s actions, and Democrats, while acknowledging that President Biden was carrying out the policies of his predecessor, criticized the haphazard manner of the U.S. withdrawal.” In addition, how relinquishing a large amount of support from A...

[G20] A Delicious Outcome for Food Security

Written by Daily Mail After yet another day of productive discussions, the council of G20 has achieved not one, but multiple agreements and articles, a feat that may seem far-fetched to other councils. Amongst the agreements and discussions said, some key ideas stood out more than others, such as technology that is more sustainable and efficient, together with the use of genetic engineering. Creations of various different aids and funds have also pushed the council to greater heights, ensuring that the council progresses forward as a whole. The council plans to use “a kind of genetic engineering, which is a kind of controversial, as the GMO that we currently have at the moment”, as said by the delegate of Italy, who claims to be the unofficials spokesperson of the G20, alongside the delegate of Spain. The delegate of Italy also stated that, “the council believes that research into mutated genesis will be extremely beneficial in reducing the impact of climate change going forward”, in a...

[UNCTAD] No More Silence

Written by RT      RT has interviewed the Delegates of New Zealand and the United States of America to better understand their viewpoints regarding the mitigation of fallouts of the US-China Trade War.      RT chose to interview the Delegate of New Zealand based on her claim that the Trade War has not created a great impact on its nation. However, New Zealand also believes in shifting away from the US and China as economic powers.      The Delegate of the USA has remained relatively silent during the council sessions. As one of the large countries in question, RT hopes to find out more about the views of the US regarding the damage they have caused due to the Trade Wars. But can we really stop the silence? Q: To the delegate of New Zealand, you have mentioned that the US-China Trade War has minimal consequences on your nation, so why would you be willing to incur high administrative costs to diversify your supply chain? A: “By switching suppl...
