【Russian President's Press Secretary: "International Law No Longer Exists"] Russian President's press secretary Dmitry Peskov said on March 9 that there have been more turbulent periods in human history. It's just because we didn't experience them ourselves that we now feel as if it's the "end of the world." However, it cannot be denied that the current regional situation has become seriously unstable, with a large number of regional conflicts and long-standing unresolved issues piling up, creating a cumulative effect, and gradually leading to economic and political consequences. Unfortunately, we seem to have lost what we once called "international law."
Peskov admitted that he even doesn't know how to call on all parties to abide by the norms and principles of international law nowadays, because this system no longer works in practice. On the surface, international law still exists, but in reality, it has become a mere formality. As for what new rules will replace international law in the future, at present, no one can give a clear answer. International order #InternationalLaw
