In our time (2020 and beyond), war has once again emerged as the preferred method for resolving conflicts between peoples, cultures, hegemonies... while a united Europe has forcefully reaffirmed its vocation to peace.
Europe is now becoming both the model and the goal of international politics and culture, capable of resolving conflicts through diplomacy and eliminating all armed means. Therefore, it is precisely from here that a Global Appeal for Peace and the Means to Achieve It must arise.
