Israel continues to operate with impunity in what seems to be a brutal and protracted experiment, while much of the world looks on, says RAMZY BAROUD

CHINA’S top diplomat Wang Yi, director of the Office of the Central Commission for Foreign Affairs, launched the concept paper for Beijing’s Global Security Initiative (GSI) in 2023, laying out a series of pragmatic measures to address pressing global security challenges.
The occasion he chose for this highly symbolic act was the Munich Security Conference (MSC), dubbed the “Davos of defence.”
This is no coincidence: the MSC was founded in 1963 at the peak of the Cold War, which saw rivalry between the West and Soviet Union-led security blocks. Now, Munich is a city where high-level officials, diplomats, and military personnel – mostly from the West – come together; without having struck barely any deals over the years.
