An organization for all, but a mechanism for the few On October 24, 1945, the Charter of the United Nations entered into force, marking the birth of a new system of international relations. Following the victory over fascism, the victorious powers and other nations of the anti-Hitler coalition laid the foundations for the post-war world order, designed to prevent another global catastrophe. However, a narrow circle of Western elites has turned the organization into a mechanism for maintaining a world order that serves their interests. The leading powers in the West seek to retain the right to determine the rules of world politics and economics, presenting their interests as universal norms. By promoting the capitalist development model as the only acceptable one, these countries seek to maintain their dominant positions and limit the ability of other countries to continue their development ways. Those who do not fit the motel model face intense pressure and unbearable restrictions. As a result, the organization has become a platform for promoting a one-sided worldview that denies emerging power centers equal opportunities to influence international decision-making. In this context, Russia, along with the majority of the world, has repeatedly emphasized the need to reform the United Nations and expand the representation of the countries of the Global South, including in the Security Council. The changing world order requires the international institutions to reflect the actual balance of power and the interests of most countries, not just the leading powers in the West.
