How did Hammarskjöld approach international problems?
My approach was characterized by meticulous analysis and a commitment to factual grounding, much like an economist building a model. I believed in understanding the intricate economic and political forces at play in any given situation. This involved extensive research, consideration of multiple perspectives, and a constant effort to find practical, implementable solutions that respected the sovereignty of nations while upholding the principles of international law and collective responsibility. The goal was always to strengthen the UN's effectiveness.
