Open to Debate · Is the United Nations Obsolete? (Encore) · 18 Sep 2026 podcast

Okay, I have to break in there.

The lines of division are clear in this conversation, but that concludes round two of this debate, and here's where we are.

We're about to hear brief closing statements from each debater.

These statements will be two minutes each.

It's their last chance to try to change your minds, because remember, right after this round, we will ask you to vote for a second time, and your votes will decide which team has been most persuasive and, therefore, our winner.

So let's move on to round three, closing statements, and first making his closing statement in support of the resolution that the UN is obsolete.

Here is, one more time, Rajan Menon.

me, thank you for listening.

Thank you, Rajan Menon.

And next, a closing statement against the resolution that the UN is obsolete.

Here is Angela Cain.

Thank you, Angela Kane.

And our next speaker will be again arguing in support of the motion that the UN is obsolete.

Here is Niall Gardner.

Thank you, Niall Gardner.

And getting literally the last word in the debate itself, making his argument against the resolution that the UN is obsolete, here once again is Mahmoud Mohamedou.

Thank you, Mahmoud Mahmoudou, and thank you to all of our debaters.

As that concludes the final round of our debate, and it's time now for our second and final vote.

The competition is over.

I just wanted to thank our debaters, Angela, Rajan, Mahmoud, and Niall, for a really excellent debate.
