Conduct between nations is sovereign, and outside of any enforceable jurisdiction or legal system. So there will always be the need for a a strong dominant nation to set and establish the rules of conduct and enFORCE them as has been the role of the US since WW2.

Its a dirty job keeping this world order in some semblance of functional, and the Dominant enforcer of that order will always take a cut for their imperfect pursuit of the same. All-volunteer police forces are less common than the compensated type. Perhaps CRINK (China, Russia, Iran and NoKo) will deal you and your peoples a better hand than the US has?
