Why has the Security Council often failed to take action when it is needed?
BoncaSmith
(Action by the Security Council is often blocked by the "great power" veto.)
The U.N. Charter (constitution) gives each of the five permanent members of the Security Council the power to block Council action. This power is called the "great power" veto.During the Cold War years, the Soviet Union used its veto hundreds of times and thereby crippled the Security Council. For example, when in 1946 the Greek government asked the Security Council for help in its fight against communist rebels, the Soviet Union blocked this action. One of the few times the Security Council was able to take action was when it voted to stop North Korea's invasion of South Korea. The Soviet Union was not able to veto this action because it was boycotting the U.N. at the time.
