NO! Especially in modern day, people should do their best to expand and improve their fluency in foreign languages.

If someone only speaks one language, it greatly limits their world experience and creates a solid barrier between cultures.

Speaking more than one language improves an individual's opportunity to get a better job and ups their ability to travel and have a much more personal experience in other countries.

If you mean, people around the world as a whole should agree to all speak one language, then I don't agree with that as well.

Language is a HUGE factor in separate, unique, wonderful traditions around he world and it would eventually annihilate the wonderful variety of cultures we have today!

No, people should be able to speak multiple languages if they have the capacity and interest to do so. Speaking multiple languages can open up opportunities for communication, cultural understanding, and personal growth. It is advantageous in a globalized world to be able to connect with people from different linguistic backgrounds.
