The Role of the West

The prime minister,who had been heralded by trumpets,continued his observations:While I see a world that is facing a financial crisis,there is evidence of this new multilateralism at work.Together we can create a new global society.The challenge is to build a consensus for a new global financial system.I believe we in the West should approach these challenges with a degree of humility.The alliance between Britain and America,Europe and America,can and must provide leadership.The election of Barack Obama can only be a source of hope and inspiration.Let that hope be fulfilled with a pact with the rest of the world to lead and fulfill the first truly global society.
