I liked his speech and his 4 points. But it seems like landlocked countries, civil wars and natural resources intersect so much they should almost be counted as one. When the lines were drawn between countries it wasn’t with long term planning or any acknowledgment of the cultures they divided. This is most clear in the Rwandan genocide in the 1990’s. Thats not to say they cant be fixed separately but in some cases I dont think they can.
It reminds me a bit of the Iraq war. Iraq was created without regard to the tensions between sunni, shiai, and kurds. When we invaded and took over governance (number 4 on the list) we insisted the country go back to being what the Europeans had forced it to be in the 20th century. This led to insurgency and near civil war. It helped create ISIS too for an added bonus. I don’t know what the right answer is but I think sometimes we should look at the idea of changing borders as happened (with bad effect) with Sudan recently. These arent historical or cultural borders so why do we consider them sacrosanct?
