On more than 30 occasions, the United Nations Assembly has discussed the blockade against Cuba, which costs the island 5 billion dollars annually, according to some estimates. Every year the resolution is proposed and the whole world, through the vote of the absolute majority of the member countries of the United Nations General Assembly, has condemned the imperialist attitude of the United States towards Cuba.

      If that same thought or sentiment grows around the world … then why have a UN if its just treated as a play toy by the ones with the biggest guns?

        The UN is, like marginally more effective than the League of Nations was. Which is to say: nearly completely meaningless.

        So, UN would?

        But then all the major powers woukd exit cuz this doesn’t suit them, and the UN would be useless again.

          if only the UN wasn’t so useless

          It’s actually a scam that it is pointless. All it does is it creates an illusion of discourse when there is none - the “big boys” will still do whatever suits them best - be it China, Russia, US.
