    Explaining how difficult adding new members to the UN Security Council would be only highlights how unfair the current setup is. Of course you're not going to want to rock the boat if you currently hold a seat and veto power.
    I'm with President Stubb on this: The organization is losing its legitimacy. Reform is necessary to save it.

      Love the Finnish president. 🏆❤
      He was "making RUclips videos" on his geopolitical understanding of the world right before he became the president, on a "geopolitics YT channel" I forgot the name of...

    Don't you have internet in London? You are shooting yourself in the foot with quality. Change your ISP today.

      All internet companies use the same infrastructure in UK. So if your Internet is bad with one it will be bad with all.

    India, Nigeria, and Brazil should be considered for permanent Security Council seats. Not a 2nd African country.

      Nigeria is not a credible country. Its a failing state with huge human rights issues.
      Only South Africa is a credible player.

    What relevance does the UK have in the world today? I really think the UN is entering a League of Nations stage of irrelevance where formerly relevant nations still think they can drive policy. Unfortunately were probably headed towards a global conflict due to current conflicts. When the new order shakes out I think the United States remains at the top of the pile but Europe has some humble pie to eat and recognize its mostly globally irrelevant unless its unified under an EU banner.

      Nice deflection from the fact that Russia is the major threat to world peace today.

      ​@EvoraGT430 there is no deflection. I agree with you on that topic 100%.

      We need to be clear on what we're talking about, UN General Assembly or UN Security Council. The former sort of works, the latter doesn't.
      The League of Nations managed to kick Stalin's Soviet Union out after it invaded Finland. The Russian Federation continues to hold a permanent seat in the Security Council illegitimately.
