The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has a long-range plan that very much includes the U.N. In recent years, the regime even opened a “School of Global Governance” at the Beijing Foreign Studies University (BFSU) to train armies of future diplomats and spies to work in international organizations. In 2018, Chinese leader [[Xi Jinping]] said Beijing would take “an active part in leading the reform of the global governance system.”  Former U.N. investigator-turned-whistleblower Peter Gallo said,

Some American critics view the UN as an agent for [[War on Sovereignty|eroding the sovereignty]] of the [[United States]] and instead promoting forms of [[one-world government]]. Some claim that President [[Bill Clinton]] rejected and ignored the position of the United Nations when he ordered U.S. military "police actions" in foreign countries. President [[George W.
