My plan for the United Nations
Article Abstract:
New UN Sec General Kofi Annan will seek during his term to reduce bureaucracy in the international agency, as well as promote it as an organization working for the people. He also believes that a nonconfrontational stance, especially with its largest contributor, the US, is the best style of democracy. He will also work for an expanded Security Council, believing that a free election by General Assembly members is the best approach in selecting members of the council.
