Claim summary · not a verbatim quotation
The older post-war rules-based order is gone.
The finding
What the evidence shows
Gone is a judgement call stated as a fact. The institutions built after 1945 are under real strain, and plenty of scholars agree the old arrangement is not holding. Plenty of others argue it is being renegotiated rather than ended. Presenting one side of a live argument as settled is what makes this one-sided rather than wrong.
No supporting source was captured. This finding should not be treated as a sourced conclusion.
