If the aberration happening in many nations is an indication, it gives us a cynical outlook. Some examples:
1. President of USA, mighty nation, requests his counterparts in Ukraine & China to testify against his political rival, to win the election
2. Alexei Navalny, opposition leader of Russia, governed long by Putin; is poisoned and put into coma, this being the signature annihilation tactic of Russian leadership for long, need we say by whom?
3. North Korea’s dictator Kim Jong-un have his elder brother killed at a Malay airport with VX toxin, ensuring that no one comes to claim his throne
4. Xi Jinping, the China’s absolute leader amends the nation’s constitution to ensure his continuance as Its leader for life
5. Muhammad Buhari, former army head of Nigeria taking over the country in a coupe & then ensures a second term by rigging elections
6. Saudi Prince & son of its King, MBS ensures his continuity by neutralising rest of the claimants thru imprisonment
7. Hungary’s PM Viktor Orban assumes dictatorial powers by amending its laws
8. Changing worrisome polity in India
There are similar stories in many other nations where democracy is a casualty, of course!
Is there any hope in the planet for peace, humanity and harmony?
