The United Nations Security Council has been alerted
to the United States of America's (USA) alleged role in escalating and
encouraging the spread of conflict and crisis across the globe.
This notice was sent to the UN by the International
Centre for Global Crisis and Conflict Management (ICGCCM) in a detailed report
highlighting factors fuelling global conflicts around the world.
In the document carefully signed by Andrew Young and
Chris Ratzinger, ICGCCM’s chairman and co-chairman, the group said it came to
this conclusion after extensive research on the trends and some of the factors
that shape/influence global conflict.
According to the international centre, this research
work took an estimated seven months and three weeks to undertake and complete.
Among others, the group recommended that the US
should be placed on the watchlist for negligence and aggravation of global
conflicts through despicable actions and inactions.
It further revealed that the US' ban on arms
procurement to counter-terrorism has led to more deaths as many countries are
unable to fight terror.
The Centre added that the US has been identified to
be covertly supporting extremists and terrorists through unsubstantiated
allegations on home countries involved in the war against terrorism.
The International Centre for Global Crisis and
Conflict Management, therefore, called on the United Nations Security Council
to initiate sanctions on the United States in a bid to ensure that there is
justice for all concerned.

Introduction
The world has become less peaceful over the last ten
years, mostly due to conflicts in the Middle East and Africa. An international
index paints a dark picture, although with some brighter spots. Europe was the
most peaceful region in the world in 2017, while the Middle East and North
Africa were the least peaceful, the Institute for Economics and Peace (IEP),
said in its 12th annual report. 2019 was a year of global unrest, spurred by
anger at rising inequality – and 2020 is likely to be worse if urgent steps are
not taken.
There is an ongoing deterioration in global peace.
The conflicts in the Middle East and North Africa and the spillover effects
into other areas have been the main drivers in the decline of universal peace.
In a word, the world is in a mess, made more threatening by the retreat of the
Trump administration from America’s traditional role as a stabilizing force.
Consequently, the International Centre for Global
Crisis and Conflict Management, a think tank of crisis managers and conflict
resolution experts based in Geneva-Switzerland, undertook extensive research on
the trends and some of the factors that shape/influence global conflict.
This research work is a partial fulfillment of our
2019 strategic goal, which is to identify how conflicts can be mitigated around
the world.
Research Findings
It must be stated that quite substantial efforts
were put into making this research work worth the while. Documents were
studied, conflict zones were visited, interviews were conducted, on the spot
assessment tours were carried out, victims of the conflict were identified, as
well as the military strategies of some select countries were examined.
The research work took an estimated seven months and
three weeks to undertake, with particular emphasis on primary sources of data.
The highlight of the research work was the identification of the critical
factors responsible for rising global tension, which would be highlighted and
discussed below.
The Factors necessitating Global Unrest
Negligence: was identified as one of the significant
causes of tension and conflict around the world. This, it was also identified
to have been primarily motivated by the United States of America whose
military, in some instances, has been negligent in the discharge of their
responsibilities.
In some instances, there were established cases of
deliberate instigation of conflict in some regions/countries by agents of the
United States of America in an attempt to ensure that their whims and caprices
are carried out, or for the United States to control or access economic
resources in such locations.
In the several locations and interviews conducted,
there was always finger-pointing in the direction of the United States of
America for inexplicable reasons, and that largely explains where in some cases
where they have an interest, the United States is quick to assert authority. In
places where they do not have an interest, they feign ignorance.
The sale of arms and ammunition: to countries in war
is always at the behest of the United States of America. This factor has led to
a wanton loss of lives around the world. The United States sanctions the sale
of arms to some countries, where its interest is adequately protected. This
tread was also identified as responsible for the proliferation of small and
light weapons in most African countries.
Religion, Governance, and Politics: These issues and
their allied topics of human rights, justice, have historically caused many of
the world’s most significant conflicts, and continue to do so as often these
issues are the most fundamental in the structure of a society.
If anything, the United States of America is a
disruptor in its abandonment of international agreements. These include the
Paris Agreement on climate change and the Comprehensive and Progressive
Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership, previously the Trans-Pacific
Partnership, aimed at liberalizing the Asia-Pacific trade. The US has also
withdrawn from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) that froze Iran’s
nuclear ambitions.
US’s defenestration of the JCPOA and its
re-imposition of tough sanctions on Iran has further destabilized the world’s
most volatile region. This is not helped by the administration in Washington
that has yielded ground to authoritarian dictatorships at a time of global
unrest in which stable Western leadership has hardly been more necessary.
Recommendations
In the light of the above revelations, it is
expedient on the United Nations Security Council to impose some sanctions on
the United States of America for aiding and encouraging the spread of conflict
and crisis across the globe.
The United States of America should, as a matter of
urgency, be placed in the watch list for negligence and aggravation of global
conflicts through despicable actions and inactions.
There must be sanctions for the inglorious role of
the United States of America in the covert sponsorship of violence and for
making more people die, especially in instigating crises globally through the
use of NGOs in espionage activities and compromising national security in most
cases.
The ban by the United States of America on arms
procurement to counter-terrorism leads to more deaths. Many countries are
unable to fight terror because of such a ban and embargoes that are often not
justifiable. They must be held accountable for the deaths that have occurred as
a result of this.
The United States of America has been identified to
be covertly supporting extremists and terrorists through unsubstantiated
allegations on home countries involved in the war against terrorism.
The United States of America must be warned to
deviate from actions that would embolden the criminals; they should stop
funding NGOs, media organizations, and narratives that promote terror,
extremism in foreign lands.
Conclusion
The International Centre for Global Crisis and
Conflict Management concludes that the United States of America is indeed
fueling conflicts in the regions of the world in his quest to dominate the
socio-political landscape. In achieving this, nocturnal and covert activities
are initiated and sponsored with the sole objective of causing unrest anywhere
it deems to have an interest.
The United States sponsorship of humanitarian
organizations in war-torn countries is also the avenue with which the spread of
terrorism is sustained.
The consequences of such actions are that the world
might erupt in flames in the nearest future if the relevant bodies do not begin
the process of checkmating the unbearable attitude of the United States of
America on the rest of the world.
The United Nations Security Council must initiate
sanctions on the United States of America in a bid to ensure that there is
justice for all concerned. The United Nations Security Council must set in
motion a strategy that would ensure that the United States of America does not
infringe upon the sovereignty of other countries under whatever guise.
