Germany – Munich Security Conference 2014

February 1, 2014

By Padmini Arhant

Global security is threatened with concentration of power in parallel system.

The contemporary challenge facing civil society  is neo-imperial aspirations promoting agenda embarked on extremism,  military aggression and economic sanctions.

The prominent nations attending the meeting in Munich, Germany and the host as leading EU member share responsibility for violence and political unrest in the Middle East, Eastern Europe, Africa, Asia and Latin America. 

In fact, the major powers i.e. P5+1 combined nuclear status and military capability pose imminent danger to humanity considering their legacy and current engagement pursuing hegemonic goals in the respective region and worldwide.

The entities in control of EU, UN and most governments especially the United States, Britain and France are responsible for human suffering across the globe.

Neo-colonialism having exhausted means to destroy nations, culture, religious sanctity and human dignity ultimately resulting in self-inflicted economic crises, the urge to maintain status quo defies logic and rationality.

The disproportionate defense spending and investments in nuclear weapons enhancement programs together with massive expenditure in terror manufacture and sprawling intelligence apparatus under national security pretext has drained treasury and diminished economic prospects in the west and similar experience among their allies elsewhere.

Since geopolitical dominance for strategic and economic gains remains the central focus, the shadow power behind governments and organizations have lost capability to minimze volatility confronting them in every frontier.

Accordingly their action adopting desperate measures further debilitate structure on the brink of collapse.

The solution to burgeoning problems is to abandon counterproductive ambitions and end conflicts in Syria, Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, North Korea and most parts of Africa and Latin America.

Illegal invasion and occupation of Palestine, Golan Heights and territorial annexation in the Middle East, Asia and worldover contribute  to oppression and gross human rights violation.

Besides the military incursions and reconnaissance cause unnecessary tensions and undermine sovereignty.

Notwithstanding crimes against humanity involving drone attacks targeting civilians in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Somalia and Yemen…and refusal to shut down prison camps such as Guantanamo Bay in Cuba and several foreign locations exacerbate victims plight facilitating militancy and opportunity for terror recruitment.

The narcotic trade with poppy cultivation in Afghanistan, cocoa production in Colombia and alike in Latin America boost arms sales and distribution to terror networks, drug cartels in Mexico and rebels representing hegemony to destabilize nations and region. 

Similarly instigating unrest in Ukraine, Thailand, Egypt and other domains potentially harm global economy.

Hence refraining from self-detrimental activities and instead diverting attention towards domestic issues would be constructive in many respects and restore credibility.

Nuclear disarmament beginning with P5+1 is the preliminary step towards establishment of peace and nuclear free world.

In conclusion, the recognition among global powers as the origin of deteriorating conditions affecting mankind and acknowledgment with commitment towards peaceful endeavors would guarantee individual progress.

Sincere pledge to peace, democracy, social justice and environment protection exemplified in result-oriented policies is key to universal peace and prosperity. 

Peace to all!

Thank you.
