It is unlikely that the world will ever be completely free of wars. However, it is possible to significantly reduce the frequency of wars through the implementation of global peace initiatives and strict anti-war policies by the United Nations.

I believe the tolerance for war is decreasing as modernization takes place. But I don’t think war can be eliminated to its totality.

I think that if it is possible to eliminate the war completely. This leads to a process of mass growth of the entire population, of learning many things about themselves. In general, that would represent a great evolution of all people; and that takes a lot of time.

It has decreased to some extent, but that does not mean that it is gone entirely. We can only hope for peace to continue.

Absolutely, I believe that with each passing generation, we are becoming less tolerant of actual war. I believe that warfare in this world is already evolving. For instance, it no longer takes place physically but rather through technological and natural resource competitions.

With all we have achieved in the world, I don’t think anyone wants to war and risk destroying all that they have built. This generation is busy trying to be innovative and the last thing on our minds is war. We would rather talk things over than go to war.
