In the past I didn’t really catch that the people were rebelling against the government and suddenly there is great violence against protestors.
I think I missed this completely. I am aware that the beginning was spiralling costs. Is this connected to international sanctions?


That’s pure nonsense. There is only one version of international law and the UN is the only globally recognized organization to enforce it. These other organization are just unilateral tools of specific countries representing their interests. And sanctions such as the ones the west does against their adversaries are unilateral actions by these states.
i don’t think they are arguing about international law, they are making an irrelevant and pedantic point about the meaning of the word international in general
good point
Only enforcement there is is possible sanctions
And those are often only made by some of their members
UN is mostly there for all countries to have a place to talk
Its not the police
UN can absolutely impose sanctions, the actual problem is that the west is a bunch of rogue states that take unilateral action ignoring the UN.
