Not satire: China offers to be UN authority on ‘fairness’

The Chinese Communist Party led the inaugural meeting of its new United Nations group, Friends of Global Governance, on Tuesday, “responding to the needs of the people” and offering its “wisdom to uphold international fairness,” said Ambassador Fu Cong. The party’s Foreign Ministry said the group “aims to build a more just and equitable global governance system” and make a “new contribution to world peace and development.” It also said that the other member nations of the group, which include Cuba, Iran, North Korea and about 40 other nations, “commended China’s leading role in global governance.” The world’s most oppressive and belligerent nations forming such a group further highlights the UN’s tragically farcical failure to establish peace.
