Failure of the current proposal would mean an effective end to all efforts to reform the UN, with disastrous consequences for people across the world who depend on the aid provided by the UN Development Program, the security provided by the UN’s numerous peacekeeping operations, or the myriad other services rendered by UN agencies. For example, failure of management reform would fuel demands by the US Congress to withhold America’s contributions to the UN budget – a policy that would greatly undermine America’s own interests, such as the planned expansion of the mission to stop genocide in Darfur.
目前急需找到脱离这一困局的途径。当前的提议如果失败将意味着所有联合国改革努力的终结。这将给世界各地依赖于由联合国发展计划署提供的援助、联合国为数众多的维和任务提供的安全或者由联合国机构提供的难以计数的其他服务的人们带来灾难性的后果。例如，管理改革失败，美国国会将会增加扣留美国给联合国预算贡献的要求，而这一政策将会极大地损害美国的自身利益，例如计划中的扩大停止达尔富尔种族灭绝大屠杀的使命。
