ALERT<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In less than a century, the international peace architecture has shifted from a universal project of global regulation to a politically paralysed and financially strangled structure. By the end of 2025, the glass tower[1]<\/a> had a record $1.6 billion in unpaid contributions, whereas a third of its member states no longer regularly meet their financial obligations[2]<\/a>, having lost faith in the effectiveness of this \u201cthing\u201d.<\/p>\n

Without a fundamental reform of its funding and decision-making mechanisms (a long-standing issue dating back several decades[3]<\/a>, as its charter and functioning have never been significantly changed and have always reflected the world order shaped by the Western powers following the Second World War), the UN will soon be merely surviving, incapable of launching new ambitious operations on its own without external co-financing, whether public or private. In other words, without a fundamental overhaul, it will no longer lead, but merely support. Yet who will ensure international peace and stability when the traditional multilateral mechanisms inherited from the 20th century cease, de facto, to function?\t\t
