Russland Vorsitz Weltsicherheitsrat

[Axel Henrich]

Russland übernimmt im September den Vorsitz im Sicherheitsrat der Vereinten Nationen.
In diesen Zeitraum fällt auch die 70. Tagung der UN-Generalversammlung, zu der auch Putin mit einer Delegation anwesend sein wird und eine Rede halten wird. Tschurkin gibt wohl morgen eine Pressekonferenz.

Den Rest des Jahres übernehmen dann Spanien, UK und USA den Vorsitz.

Lavrov: Proposal from London, Paris for limiting veto power in UN has no future

"We are very much worried by the growing attempts to provoke a confrontation in the UN Security Council by proposing unilateral resolutions over certain issues, be it Srebrenica or Malaysia’s flight MH17," Lavrov said. "That’s not diplomacy but a wish to make the UN Security Council a propaganda tool, if the spade is to be called a spade."

France’s idea of voluntary restrictions on the veto power does not imply formal amendments to the UN Charter. Instead, a special procedure is proposed: at the request of no less than 50 member-countries the UN secretary-general is to assess the situation proposed for consideration by the UN Security Council. If the events in question are qualified as serious and widely spread violations, for instance, genocide or war crimes, then a "gentlemanly arrangement" implying the voluntary abdication of the veto right will be employed. This initiative implies that this mechanism will not operate whenever the national interests of at least one permanent member of the UN Security Council is at stake.
