A primary purpose of the state is the violent control of people and things.
An organization of states won’t be any different.

That’s unfortunate.
Technically this hasn’t been approved by the General Assembly yet, and the individual countries would need to ratify it. But press coverage suggest it’s a done deal.
In many places, ratifying a treaty requires parliament approval, so it’s not going to be quick. Talk to your representative once this treaty comes up in your parliement’s agenda.
