A Diplomatic Peace Is Not Yet the Real Peace
It was a hot summer day in a remote village of Africa. A group of tourists was exploring the village and happened to meet an old man sitting under the shade of a tree. They asked him – “What is the secret of your eternal happiness?” The old man smiled and replied – “I shifted my focus from what I cannot control to what I can control and that made all the difference.”
The Story of Yitzhak Rabin
Yitzhak Rabin was an Israeli politician and military general who served as the Prime Minister of Israel twice. He was born in Jerusalem on March 1, 1922. Rabin was instrumental in the signing of the Oslo Accords in 1993 which aimed to achieve peace between Israel and Palestine. It was a historic moment and Rabin was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts. However, his efforts were short-lived as he was assassinated by a right-wing extremist in 1995. His death was a huge setback for the peace process, but his legacy lives on.
Diplomatic Peace vs. Real Peace
A diplomatic peace is a peace that is achieved through negotiations and agreements. It is a necessary step in the peace process but it is not the real peace. The real peace is a state of harmony where there is mutual respect, trust, and understanding between all parties. A diplomatic peace is like a Band-Aid that covers the wound but does not heal it. It is a temporary solution that needs to be followed by sustained efforts to achieve real peace.
Examples of Diplomatic Peace
- The signing of the Oslo Accords between Israel and Palestine in 1993
- The nuclear deal between Iran and six world powers in 2015
- The signing of the Paris Agreement on climate change in 2016
How to Achieve Real Peace?
- Shift the focus from what you cannot control to what you can control – like the old man in the African village
- Practice empathy and try to understand the perspectives of others
- Be willing to compromise and find common ground for the greater good
Conclusion
- A diplomatic peace is a necessary step but it is not the real peace
- Real peace can be achieved through sustained efforts, empathy, and compromise
- Let us work towards achieving real peace in the world
