Hello Everybody,

The United Nations has a strange way of counting.

78 years ago, in February 1945, three world leaders got together
in Crimea - the only safe area in Europe all of them could meet.
At that meeting, these three men (Churchill, FDR, and Stalin)
hammered out an outline of what was to become the United Nations.

As part of the United Nations, there was to be a Security Council
consisting of five nations. We all know what those five nations were,
and why they were chosen.

However, two of those nations that were original members of the
Security Council are no longer there. The Republic of China was
dropped in favor of the People's Republic of China, and the USSR
ceased to exist as an entity in 1991 as it dissolved itself into
oblivion.

I could find no record of either the People's Republic of China
or Russia having been voted as members of the Security Council by
any resolution of the General Assembly.

Why did the USSR not disappear from the UN Security Council when
it voted itself out of existence? If a country does not exist, it
cannot by definition be a member of the UN Security Council.

The Republic of China was simply dropped without a vote of any kind.
And then replaced by a fake China which claims itself as being the
one and only unbreakable China.

So what gives? What real countries are on the UN Security Council.
I can count only three ...

For Life,
Lee
