Veto Power a relic of old age...

Recommended Posts

How many of you think this "Veto" power is really out of date...?

 

Where is the justice in the so called United Nations charter, which on the one hand preaches that all nations are equal, while of the other gives extra powers to certain nations (mostly Western nations and more precisely all being on the northern hemisphere)...

Designed for certain nations .. never fair.

 

RUSSIA, USA, FRANCE, CHINA, & UK

 

Are these countries 'better' than the rest?

I concur... but isn't time the rest of the world, in particular the Africans to raise up and demand their share of this exclusive club?

And Isreal (of course...) but what about Germany and Japan? I thought they had veto powers too.... perhaps.

Suldaan,

those are the only 5 that have veto power, Israel, Germany and Japan are not permanent members of the security council. You see, it was established immediately after WW2 and therefore the vanquished powers such as Germany and Japan where left out.
