Fin de partie à l'ONU [French]

By Pierre-Edouard Deldique

If the idea of a remodeling of the U.N. is not new, never has it been more crucial than now. The war in Irak, geopolitical upheaval and accusations of corruption have discredited the U.N. while underlining at the same time the absolute necessity of a more efficient, more representative organisation, capable of dealing with the new threats that nations face today.
The U.N. is at a turning point. Today there are 191 members, 5 permanent Security Council members, one Secretary General and an army. What about tomorrow?

Pierre Edouar Deldique discusses the reforms proposed by Kofi Annan. The same ones that will be discussed at the next world summit meeting that will commemorate the U.N.'s sixty years of existence: reform of the security council and the right to veto, extension of the right to interfere and modifications of the Secretary General's powers as well as a reorganisation of the General Assembly. Highly documented, this impassioned investigation goes well beyond the French point of view and is enriched with interviews of Boutros Boutros Ghali, Mustapha Niasse (ex prime minister of Senegal), Alain Jupp and Alain Dejammet.
