UN to vote on Security Council veto reforms
The 193 members of the UN General Assembly are set to vote on a resolution that would require the five permanent members of the Security Council to justify their use of the veto in future...
Directly targeting the US, China, Russia, France and the UK – who are the only holders of the veto right – the measure would “make them pay a higher political price” when they opt to use their veto to strike down a Security Council resolution, said an ambassador from a country that does not have the veto.
The veto in the Security Council doesn't make sense. The countries should not only have to pay a price for using the veto, there should not be a veto at all. However, I doubt this will happen in the near future. If this Ukraine war doesn't teach us that, when will this happen?
