Annan calls on US/Europe for "long term Global Collective Security"
ANNAN CALLS ON EUROPE AND THE UNITED STATES TO HELP USHER IN
LONG-TERM GLOBAL COLLECTIVE SECURITY

The Secretary-General yesterday addressed the 41st Munich Conference on Security Policy, in which he called on Europe and America “to think ahead and to help plant the seeds of long-term global collective security”.


The message is simple, he went on: “Our global security environment has been transformed, and our global collective security system, including the United Nations, must be transformed too”.


He laid out a four-part formula to realize this vision: 1) strengthen our collective defences; 2) when prevention fails, consider the use of force; 3) equip ourselves to build lasting peace in war-torn lands and 4) take democratization, development and human rights seriously.


The Secretary-General turned to Sudan, and said, “People are dying every single day while we fail to protect them.” He said that organizations with real capacity, including NATO and the European Union, must give serious consideration to what, in practical terms, they can do to help end this tragedy.
