Rochelle Ferguson Bouyahi is pleased to welcome Fanny Badache, Researcher at Sciences Po and Lecturer at the University of Geneva. The UN mandate is international peace and security, yet its ability to fulfill that mandate ultimately depends on the cooperation of sovereign states, namely the five powerful permanent members of the Security Council. As the UN is confronted with an increasingly fragmented, volatile and unpredictable international order, Badache argues that when those powers are divided, the mechanisms designed to enable collective security can instead produce paralysis.

With the US midterm elections now just six weeks away, we’ll speak to our Washington correspondent Fraser Jackson about whether President Donald Trump could help or hurt his party’s chances. Polls have pointed to what some are calling a “blue wave”, with Democrats potentially regaining control of the House, while the Senate race remains more uncertain. Trump has ramped up campaigning, including spending heavily on advertising and proposing $5,000 payments to voters who support Republicans. But with his approval ratings under pressure amid the war in Iran and the Middle East, and rising oil, gasoline and commodity prices compared with before he took office, the political landscape could still shift significantly in the coming weeks.
