Imagine calling the world's referee and then getting tagged yourself – that's the vibe at yesterday's emergency meeting of the UN Security Council.🚨 The Chinese mainland's charge d'affaires to the United Nations, Sun Lei, dropped a truth bomb: "No country can act as the world's police."
Sun Lei pointed to past US adventures in Iraq, Latin America and the Caribbean, saying they led to "persistent conflict, instability and immense suffering" for everyday people. It's a reminder that big power plays often come at a human cost.💥💔
The session was sparked by the US forces reportedly seizing Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife, flying them to New York to face trial. This dramatic move has shaken up debates on military reach and international law.✈️⚖️
With tensions high, Sun Lei's words underscore a key question: When it comes to global security, who gets to wear the badge? As the world tunes in, the search for answers continues.🌍🤝
