Colombia's president Gustavo Petro: "The motto Liberty, Equality, Fraternity that was created by the French Revolution no longer has its place in Paris but in South Africa.

It's been the case for a while but if this war achieves anything, it is to sound the death knell of the West's credibility when it comes to respecting human values... and showcases the fact that global South countries are in fact the credible ones.
