      <br>
      I would not like to hurt anyone on this list, but, beside
      considerations of legitimacy, I fear that placing Broadway in
      Ukraine in a 1930 items database is not yet completely a proof of
      readiness to govern the world. Is it?<br>

            Yes. India's <a moz-do-not-send="true"

            better developed, and with clear multistakeholder input
            systems. With a few differences, India's propose a body
            inside the UN, and the European Commission proposal, one
