"Earlier this week, the organisers' assessment of the situation was even more blunt as they argued the post-war world order was under destruction, as we enter a period of wrecking ball politics where sweeping destruction rather than careful reforms and policy corrections is the order of the day. It added: The most prominent of those who promise to free their country from the existing order's constraints and rebuild a stronger, more prosperous nation is the current US administration."
