Eighty-one years after the creation of the United Nations, how well has the organization lived up to the ambitions set for it in 1945? And what role can it play in a world once again marked by geopolitical rivalry and conflict?
Thibault Camelli spoke with Felippe Coaglio at TV Globo about the UN’s origins, its record over eight decades, and what the parallels and differences between 1945 and today reveal about the continued importance of multilateral cooperation.
They also discussed Brazil’s role at the UN and the distinctive place the country occupies in the organization as the 81st session of the General Assembly gets underway.
