The following figures are from memory, for who pays for the UN:

US 25% (veto)
Japan 10%
China 8% (veto)
Germany: 5%
UK 3% (veto)
France 3% (veto)
Brazil 2%
Italy 2%
Russia 2% (veto)
India 1%

The UN is a joke. It’s 180 countries shaking us down. On climate change, on peacekeeping missions, you name it.

Ditto NATO.

If the UN and if NATO were fair, countries would vote in proportion to their contribution. And, no country should have a veto power just because they were on the winning side during WWII (or, in the case of France, because we felt sorry for them).

Those who pay the piper should call the tune.
