DIFFICULTIES IN ADDRESSING INTERNATIONAL ISSUES OR ADVISING GOVERNMENTS ON SOUND POLICIES

DIFFICULTIES IN ADDRESSING INTERNATIONAL ISSUES OR ADVISING GOVERNMENTS ON SOUND POLICIES

From my perspectives, addressing international issues or advising governments on sound policies are incredibly hard. If any one found it easy, they are doing it wrong. It requires lot of analytical skills. For instance,

1. It requires serious fact checking.

2. It requires new or more persuasive arguments, persuasive arguments offers different perspectives.

3. It requires clear thesis backed by rigorously marshaled evidence.

4. It requires complete information and being wrong has been consequences.

5. It requires learning to right.

6. It requires integrity, honesty, fair and balance arguments on international issues

7. It requires paternalistic theory consistently with sound arguments

8. It requires collective responsibility in problem solving.

9. It requires good connections and opinions acceptable to leaders.

The fact that the Armenian Prime Minister's son is doing his military service in the Armenian army located in Azerbaijan's Nagorno-Karabakh and started an undeclared war against Azerbaijan, occupied Nagorno-Karabakh and 7 adjacent regions of Azerbaijan, and massacred and forcefully deported Azerbaijani aborigines was the main reason for the lack of peace in the region.

The laws of armed conflict failed to discriminate between those taking parts in the fighting in Nagorno-Karabakh. The laws of armed conflict failed to protect the environment as war causes severe or long term damage to the environment. The fact here is that there is a number of international doc...

You did a great job President as you know the value of peaceful conflict resolution. This would allow you to play the role of peacemaker....

To: The Right Honourable Israel Prime Minister Mr. Benjamin Netanyahu, From: Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja Date: May 09, 2018 RE: Israel – Iran – Syria Conflicts Suggestion The Honourable Prime Minister Mr. Benjamin Netanyahu, I am writing this letter to you on Israel air strike in Syria yesterday. You are trying to do everything possible to stop Iranian bases in Syria. Do you believe that Iran is building permanent bases inside Syria or close to Israel? How much land has Iran captured or taken from Syria? My answer is none. But you are openly threatened Iran. Let me put it very clearly to you, there are no winners with war but losers are there. I agreed that you have strongest military force on earth. You could easily arrange a favourable peace treaty with Syria and Iran but you don’t want to negotiate with the Syria and Iran.
