‘The end of the world as we know it’: Is the rules-based order finished?
AI Summary
At the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland on January 21, 2026, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney stated that the post-World War II global rules-based order has collapsed. This assessment follows recent actions by the United States, including the invasion of Venezuela, threats to invade Greenland, and the imposition of tariffs on allied nations. US President Donald Trump is also promoting a new organization called the "Board of Peace" as a potential successor to the United Nations. Carney argues that the US's behavior has ushered in an era of great power rivalry, ending the illusion of a unified global order. Trump's speech in Davos further emphasized this shift, as he criticized Europe and alluded to the US raid in Venezuela.
