Robert Wood worked for the Biden administration at the UN Security Council. He saw first-hand the threat that China and Russia pose by working together to undermine the US.
Since 2016, Beijing has been on a relentless campaign to remake the UN in its own authoritarian image. Robert Wood served as the U.S. alternate representative for special political affairs in the UN from 2022 to 2025, with the rank of ambassador. He also was U.S. ambassador to the Conference on Disarmament from 2014 until 2021.
To many UN observers, China and Russia have now come to the shared conclusion that the UN has become a tool Washington and its allies regularly use to destabilize their regimes and diminish their global influence. Consequently, the United Nations has become a critical battleground in the current era of "Great Power" competition.
