Who hailed the post cold world as the emergence of a 'new world order"?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
*The correct answer is option (3) - George H. W. Bush*
In August 1990, Iraq invaded Kuwait, rapidly occupying and subsequently annexing it. After a series of diplomatic attempts failed at convincing Iraq to quit its aggression, the United Nations mandated the liberation of Kuwait by force. For the UN, this was a dramatic decision after years of deadlock during the Cold War. US President George H.W. Bush hailed the emergence of a ‘new world order’.
