8. It's Being Put On The Table
Edited on Mon Dec-06-04 01:59 AM by CHIMO
I wouldn't despair. There is a feeling the the veto does not represent the world as it is now. My take is that things are being put on the table. The other countries do not feel that the veto represents present day politics. Who do you think is going to give up their veto?
So to dilute this power one would increase the number of members on the security council.
The next step would be that anyone that has nuclear, first strike capability will have a veto. If we don't want the multiplication of nuclear weapons then the veto has to be withdrawn.

This is a proposal that lays it on the table. OK. What is it that you want!

I would look upon the proposal as an opportunity for the nations of the world to stand up for their interests.

Edit: Spelling and grammar
