Troubled Times.

At this time you might well be forgiven for thinking that we appear to be surrounded with conflict. Historically there have long been terrible disputes and depictions of war and bloodshed. Usually these fights are fought over territory, power and dominance of control. However, given that progress is meant to come with important lessons learnt from the past and insightful perspective, it is again quite reasonable to assume that the hostility of brutal war should not be reenacted.

It is ideas and desire that motivate action. If ideas included that of the positive capabilities that are available, international relations and political leadership would be the basis for a far more adept and humane mode of response. Just because people have different views of a solution that does not entitle either side to cause brutality. If actions involve destruction and harm to a vast number of civilians, then politics on any side is no defender of justice if it seeks out more violence in an aim of retribution and autonomy. Issuing redundant instructions claiming safety when practically none is given, should not be acceptable. Politics should be about positively influencing the plight of the people and in the case of international resolution helping to bring about parity not provoking the potential for prejudice. Countries should attain a focal point of promoting safety without question and that has to include an equal welfare code of conduct sought for the benefit of each other's populations.

Legitimate talking is often the key to reaching a settlement. However if respective leaders are unwilling to find a talking solution to their differences, another idea could be to endorse more conducive leadership. Leadership that does acknowledge diplomacy and works towards recognising that people’s needs across all sides are the priority.

Political conflict is not easy but that is why the actions of ministers and leaders are integral to success and should convey an ability to choose positively inspiring language or internationally seen actions rather than increase people’s level of tension or aggression.

Even more so in troubled times, leaders need to convey the thoughts of peaceful promotion nations. Power is something that can be used in many ways but the true application of it when it comes to any country is in how well a leader can bring about safety and success for the people. It should recognise good international relations and a sense of decency and integrity in how issues are governed.
