Statement: World without a compass

Abstract:

The Russian war of aggression against Ukraine has been shaking Europe since February 24, 2022. Its consequences and the risk of escalation are of global significance. With the terrorist attack by Hamas on Israel, October 7, 2023, has taken on a comparable significance for the Middle East, where a regional conflagration threatens. At the same time, the United Nations Security Council is paralyzed. Interest-driven minilateralism is replacing institution-oriented multilateralism. In short: the world is without a compass.
