“Since it is impossible to eliminate wars the most important thing is to disarm them”
— Mario Vargas Llosa
Simplified Meaning:
Wars are a part of human history, and stopping them completely might not be possible. However, we should focus on making them less dangerous. Imagine two kids fighting over a toy; if they can't stop arguing, at least we can take away anything sharp they might grab. By removing their threats, the fight becomes less harmful. In the same way, getting rid of the most dangerous weapons makes wars less deadly. This approach can save many lives and reduce the damage, making conflicts less severe. It’s about managing the situation to ensure as little harm as possible happens, rather than trying for an impossible perfect solution.
