Conflict and policy updates

Sound familiar?

01

Wikipedia country pages aren't enough

Wikipedia is a starting point. For a MUN position paper or a foreign-policy memo, you need ratification history on a specific treaty, voting record on a specific UN resolution, current bloc alignment — none of which is reliably one click into Wikipedia.

02

CIA World Factbook is dated

Excellent for baseline statistics. Bad for current foreign-policy positioning. Model Diplomat Country Profiles update with policy moves, statements, and votes as they happen.

03

Stitching across sites takes hours

Treaty database in one place, UN voting records in another, government statements scattered across hundreds of ministry sites. Model Diplomat assembles a coherent profile in one search.

What you get.

Foreign policy position library

Each country's positions on the topics that come up most: nuclear non-proliferation, climate finance, Security Council reform, R2P, conflict-specific policy. Sourced and current.

Voting history across UN bodies

General Assembly, Security Council, ECOSOC, Human Rights Council, and major treaty-body votes — searchable per country, per topic, per year.

Bloc and group alignments

G7, G20, BRICS, NAM, OIC, ASEAN, AU, EU, NATO, P5, IBSA, MIKTA. See which groups a country belongs to, votes with, or chairs.

Treaty obligations and reservations

Which treaties has a country ratified? What reservations? Is the country in arrears on UN dues? Cited from UN Treaty Collection and ministry sources.

Live conflict and crisis context

For countries involved in active conflicts or crises, profiles include current military situation, humanitarian status, sanctions regime, and key statements from belligerents.

Diplomatic style cues

Each country has a distinct diplomatic register — the tone of Chinese statements differs from Brazilian or Estonian ones. Country Profiles surface the actual statement language so position papers can mirror it.

Common questions.

How current are the profiles?

Static facts (UN member-state status, capital, ratification dates) are kept current; foreign-policy positions on hot topics are updated weekly during active news cycles. Where a position has shifted recently, profiles flag the most recent statement and its date.

Can I use Country Profiles for MUN position papers?

That's the primary use case. The profile gives you the foreign-policy stance and the primary sources to cite. Pair it with Model Diplomat AI Search for topic-specific research and the Position Paper Helper for structure.

What sources back the profiles?

UN Treaty Collection, UN General Assembly voting database, individual government ministry statements, IMF and World Bank country reports, established foreign-policy publications, and the Model Diplomat editorial team's primary-source research. Every claim cites a source you can verify.

Are smaller countries (Tuvalu, Liechtenstein, Bhutan) covered?

Yes. All 193 UN member states are profiled. Coverage depth scales with foreign-policy activity — Tuvalu's profile is shorter than Brazil's, but both are complete for the topics that come up in MUN and policy work.

What is South Africa's position at the ICJ on Israel and Palestine?

South Africa filed an application instituting proceedings against Israel at the International Court of Justice on 29 December 2023, alleging violations of the 1948 Genocide Convention. The application invokes the Court's jurisdiction under Article IX of the Convention; both parties are state parties.1

Provisional measures: in January 2024 the ICJ ordered six provisional measures, including that Israel take measures to prevent acts of genocide, prevent and punish public incitement to genocide, enable provision of humanitarian assistance, and preserve evidence. The Court did not order a ceasefire.2

South Africa's foreign-policy framing positions the case as continuation of its post-apartheid moral diplomacy and Non-Aligned Movement leadership. Domestic political support has been broad. Subsequent intervention declarations under Article 63 have come from Nicaragua, Colombia, Libya, Mexico, Palestine, Spain, Turkey, Chile, Maldives, Bolivia, and Ireland (as of the latest filings).3
