Where the countries yesterday were openly opposing the trade of oil in USD today U.S.A went as far as proposing a consortium with countries like Libya, Canada, Qatar, Kuwait etc. Some of these very countries had accepted OPECs idea to not trade in USD but exceptionally the U.S also included them. This consortium was initiated not only for the NATO countries to meet their demands on petroleum but to also stabilize upcoming economies like India, which are heavily dependent on petrol and diesel. Terms were agreed on this consortium but before it could take off, the idea of a consortium was scraped. OPEC therefore stated to unanimously sell to everyone.
suggested were the loopholes in the peace making organizations and then reforms to correct the same. Unreliable group concentration, inadequate planning and Non-functional logistic gaps were some of the problems highlighted by the delegate of Madagascar who also suggested the motion. There were also time problems which India rightly pointed out for the implementation of various plans and strategies which sometimes get no time at all, but sometimes can stretch towards eternity. Bahrain pointed out quite abnormally that the peace keeping organizations are meant for the agenda of the developed countries but forgot to mention that the U.S has indeed helped out millions with their resources. The delegate for Syria then pointed out that the UN failed to keep the basic right of life in the Middle East, Asian and African countries. This point was supported by other nations as the protection of civilians is very important for long term peace building. The UN should therefore maintain on meeting its success and not fall in the same scene as the defunct League of Nations.
The U.S also led the point that the organization takes a step backwards to the old ways and therefore continues with the US dollar since it has proved time and again that it can survive any crisis and furthermore has been used in all kinds of transactions. The Indian delegates had it all coming their way because even if the consortium was dissolved, the agreements that India had with OPEC countries still managed to be pulled through. The U.S delegate on the consortium not working stated that the reason was that in order to move with the times, one must consider the goodwill of all the countries, an opinion to which everyone agrees on.

The Council on Disarmament dealt with an arms deal crisis. The USA was groundlessly blamed while the KGB got away without scratches despite possessing Intel that only terrorists had access to. The Russian delegate however continued to raise suspicions against the USA, despite the fact that US delegates were killed while in negotiation with China regarding its possession of US military equipment, that was quite clearly sent to Iraq. In fact, Chinese involvement in the crisis was highly suspicious in that it breached the trust of India and the US, and furthermore seized the arms from the Somalia pirates, de facto stealing from the thieves (delegate of Spain) and claimed it as their own. When faced with the terrorist attacks on South Korea and Chinas proximity to North and South Korea, the Chinese delegation chose to distance *itself+ from the allegations. This act of China was considered a blatant violation of everything discussed in the past two days. China, in fact, suddenly developed a conscience at one point and claimed to respect the sovereignty of India. The fact that everyone is trying to deal over here is the blatant lies by China and how the U.S was blamed for nothing yet are giving away everything.

Non Alignment movement This council was sure heating up! The delegate of Vietnam and the delegate of Libya lap danced as a punishment for coming late! Poor old soul! The delegate of Libya dozes off when the situation IN LIBYA is being discussed!
General Assembly The delegate for Hungary, on failing to keep his phone on silent, stated to the Chair that the call was from the Hungarian foreign minister, urging the delegate to ask for a permanent seat on the Security Council for Hungary. Now that is thinking on your toes! The guest chair when admiring te arguments made by the delegate of India was shot down by the chair, telling the delegate of India to ignore that emotional comment. Come on, how cold are you chairs??!!!
