The Americans have chosen Donald Trump as their president for the second time. How will that affect the rest of the World? The return of Donald Trump injects another level of volatility into the world's crisis, both for people living in the midst of crisis and for those trying to respond and for entities like UN.

We need to be ready for the sequel of the Trump show. The myth of Trump as a successful businessman remains strong in Africa as well I Russia, partly because of a tv-show "The Apprentice". His history as a businessman trump the lack of experience as a politician, negotiator or peace maker.

Diplomacy, Negotiation, Mediation is more important than ever. The capacity, mandate and legitimacy of UN is often discussed, yet the body represents the major battle line for the future of humanity's soul and collective wellbeing. Historic re:currence is the repetition of similar events in history, I can't stop thinking of the work of Dag Hammarskjöld in Africa and Folke Bernadotte in Israel, two great men brutally killed in their effort to make peace. For the greater good these unselfish work need to proceed. Resilience is more important than ever
