Sept. 27, 2024 (EIRNS)—As has become painfully obvious over the recent period, Western leaders who have traded their souls for a place at the table of the Anglo-American imperium are standing in opposition to peace. On Friday, Sept. 27, a group of 20 nations founded the “Friends of Peace” group on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly. Headed by China and Brazil, and centered around their “six common understandings” to end the Ukraine-Russia conflict, these nations insisted that more fighting and weapons is not the pathway to peace. As China’s top diplomat Wang Yi said at the event: “It took time for other people to understand that other paths don’t lead to peace.” China’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian claimed that fully 110 nations are supportive of their initiative.
