Jurists and others gathered at the 17th International Conference of Chief Justices of the World on Thursday with a hope to make world a peaceful place for children to live.
Demanding reform in the United Nations to prevent armed conflicts, former President of Croatia Stjepan Mesic said the mechanisms of the UN should be reestablished to allow enforceability of "international law where no country would be allowed to force its own political system on another country".
Commenting on the triumph of Donald Trump in the US, Mesic said of the two candidates - Hillary Clinton and Trump, Clinton was on the top of US administration for a long time so her leadership was "predictable" but in case of Trump the world has no knowledge about his external politics.
"During the time Hillary spend at the top of US administration, there were wars on Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen, and Iraq…so we could assume what would be her politics but Trump's case we cannot predict what kind of external politics would he lead."
Prime Minister of Guyana Moses Nagamootoo reflected on the present day democracies. "In democracies, the uncertainties can happen so people who are involved, be it judges, society or politicians, they have to take note of the changing profile of the world because when one looks at how the US elected the president, we can all say that people have spoken and democracy is at work but also immediately look in … on the TV it conveyed the uncertainty has struck the world," he said.
Convener of the conference and founder manager of city Montessori school Dr Jagdish Gandhi said, the world is facing major problems due to which world's children are progressively becoming insecure.
These global problems can only be tackled by following the article 51 of the constitution of India. This article emphasises on establishing peace and unity in the world."
