All nations should work together to develop the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea, also known as the Maritime Constitution. This will entail international standards based on freedom, democracy, constitutionalism and cosmopolitanism as well as the principles underlying One World under One Set of Laws. The goal will be conservation and sustainable use of marine resources and the marine ecology to ensure continueddevelopment and environmental safety in the future. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Human security and sustainable development are two of the major tasks of the UN, and all nations – members or not – should comply with its norms. This entails implementing One World under One Set of Laws and giving international law precedence over domestic law, with direct bearing on the rights and duties of the people. All nations should comply with the UN Charter, the Paris climate agreement and all other relevant pacts. Fordetails see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

When the people of a nation are indifferent to or ignorant of the Constitution and its value, the dictator at the top finds it easy to gradually tighten control over all citizens. The need for the people to exercise their sovereign rights is all too evident, with measures such as direct election of the heads of the executive, legislative, judicial and procuratorial branches and other mechanism to hand power to the people. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

Free speech is a universal value, and all democracies should call for constitutional reform to ensure media freedom and prevent the government oligarchy from monopolizing the media, the internet and all other channels of communications. All people must be protected against enforced disappearance, torture and other forms of abuse, and absolute law must take precedence over international law and the constitution. For more, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

To eliminate the conditions that create refugees, the international community needs to agree on uniform constitutional standards that conform to the ideals of human rights, constitutionalism, international law and natural law. This means adopting the core values of One World under One Set of Laws and complying with Article 1 of the Humanitarian Charter, which deals with the right of each person to live a normal life. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.

The UK's referendum on Brexit was purportedly an example of how democratic societies function to reach decisions that reflect the will of the people. The closeness of the vote and efforts to stifle another vote on the issue, however, cast doubt on the mechanics of the referendum process and the true feelings of the people of the UK on their relations with the EU. Constitutional reform is the key to ensuring that the people's voice is heard through referendums and other opportunities to vote. For details, see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.

British historian Lord Acton summed it up thusly: 'Power leads to corruption, and absolute power leads to absolute corruption.' To put an end to  corruption, the people should exercise sovereignty and call for comprehensive constitutional reform to implement democratic rule of law. This means separation of powers and checks and balances as well as free election campaigns for candidates to cut symbiotic ties between government and business that engender corruption. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for details

Russia has never been a problem-solver, it has always been a trouble-maker. The US should support Taiwan's efforts toward constitutional reform to achieve greater democracy and freedom. This would spur the 1.4 billion people of China to seek democratization, pressing Russia in turn to accept real democracy – and world peace would be the result. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.
