Commentary blames U.S. and great powers for weakening the U.N.
Original: Great Powers like the U.S. are dismantling the U.N. while blaming its failures on powerless secretaries-general. https:/
A Japan Times commentary argues that major powers, chiefly the United States under Trump, are dismantling the United Nations while shifting blame for its failures onto secretaries-general who lack real authority. The piece says the institution's weakness stems from great-power actions rather than the leaders who head it, and criticizes Washington for setting up the U.N. to fail while denouncing its shortcomings.
Why now: Ongoing U.S. criticism of and disengagement from the U.N. has renewed debate over who is responsible for the organization's problems.
