Group of Friends Defending UN Charter Holds Meeting & Issues Declaration

Quietly with no media fanfare on November 5th, the Final statement of the First Meeting of the National Coordinators of the Group of Friends Defending the United Nations Charter was published in Tehran. I've noted the existence of this organization at MoA and elsewhere since its founding and this is the first statement I've found related to its goals and concerns. The Declaration has 24 points in all, but IMO numbers 3&4 are the most pressing and important:

3. We reiterate our serious concern at continued attempts aimed at replacing the tenets enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations – which have been agreed upon by the entire international community for conducting their international relations – with a so-called “rules-based order”, that remains unclear, that has not been discussed or accepted by the wide UN membership, and that has the potential, among others, to undermine the rule of law at the international level.

4. We concur that double-standards, coupled with selective approaches or accommodative interpretations of the provisions of the Charter of the United Nations, aimed at advancing political agendas of dubious nature, in clear contempt for international legality and in disregard for the common good or collective interests of the peoples of the United Nations, represent one of the major threats to the prevalence and validity of that universal and legally binding instrument that constitutes an exceptional achievement for humankind and a true act of faith on the best of humanity.

As the drive for a New International Economic Order gains momentum, I expect the membership in this organization to expand as the new Multipolar organizations in their declarations all subscribe to the UN Charter's tenets and no other. Further along at point 10 it's noted the UN Charter is based upon the concept of Indivisible Security, the same concept that was incorporated into the OSCE Treaties that all NATO nations broke and Russia demanded be reimplemented. Hopefully, it won't take another major conflagration to get that concept accepted and observed for the first time globally. As most readers of my VK know, that's one of the major reasons for Russia's SMO.

Do read the Declaration as you'll discover a few surprises, then you'll be prepared to ask your nation and fellow citizens the question: Why aren't we defenders of the UN Charter; didn't we vote to join and obey it?
