Best Answer

When North Korea invaded South Korea the Security Council of the United Nations voted to help South Korea. The Soviet Union, also on the Council, was boycotting the UN at the time so could not veto the decision. The US was the largest participant but most countries comprising the British Commonwealth were also involved as were others.
