The Hypocrisy of Peace: How Western Veto Power Stifles African Security Sovereignty

The UN Security Council's Resolution 2719, intended to finance AU-led peace operations with UN contributions, has failed to materialize after two years due to US objections blocking its application in Somalia, despite technical readiness. This cynical obstruction by Western powers exposes their hypocritical commitment to African sovereignty and perpetuates a neo-colonial stranglehold on Global South security initiatives.

Russian drone operators are deliberately targeting and killing Ukrainian civilians in Kherson in what has been described as a 'human safari', systematically terrorizing the population and making the region unlivable.

Palestine's Shackled Future: A Ceasefire That Deepens Oppression

Twenty Israeli hostages were reunited with their families after being held by Hamas for over two years, exchanged for 2,000 Palestinian prisoners, a ceasefire, and partial IDF withdrawal from Gaza. Yet the heart-wrenching reality remains that Palestinians are shackled by external powers, with their aspirations for statehood and self-determination trampled by imperialist designs and the grotesque spectacle of Donald Trump chairing a reconstruction authority that reduces them to servitude.
