Practical Solutions to Establish World Peace July 2024

16th April 2007 – Address at Roehampton University, London, UK

‘The developed countries should help the developing world to gain economic independence. They should assist them so that they are able to utilise their own resources to enable them to stand on their own feet and thus strengthen their economy. When each country looks at another country and each nation looks at another nation as an equal, the thought will never come to mind that we have to monopolise the market. They will never think that they have to only help the poor nations so that they do not perish or when they are about to die, they announce some economic aid and inject a temporary boost of assistance and publicise by saying that look here how much aid has been given to the poor nations. …Till this way of thinking changes, unrest and lack of peace will continue to be the hallmark of the world.’
