The 2024 elections reflected global trends of polarization, nationalism, and demands for economic and social reforms. These elections not only changed national political landscapes but also had far-reaching implications for international relations and the balance of power worldwide.
However, the integrity of elections is paramount. When elections are free, fair, and transparent, they ensure the voice of the people is heard and can prevent violent uprisings or social fragmentation. As such, successful elections contribute to both domestic stability and the promotion of democratic ideals on the global stage. In a world that is increasingly interconnected, upholding democratic norms through elections helps create a more stable and predictable international order.
