Answer: “No”
I vote for removing the veto from France, since Napoleon is long dead.
Oh this would be fantastic. You know things always get agreed upon much quicker with a larger group.
NO, and remove Russia who never deserved it in the first place.
AS far as Africa is concerned, let’s see if you can feed yourself on your own for awhile without attacking your neighbors or brutalizing your own citizens for a whole year, and then any of those countries who can do these two things can have a shot at a seat.
By all means, lets create more permanent memberships with veto power so that the UN will never be able to reach any consensus on anything.
By all means give a permanent seat to Iran and Venezuela, maybe even a 10 year gig for Raul. /UltraMegaGigaGoogleplexDrippingSarc

US out of the UN, UN out of the US.
Let’s be very clear about this, the UN Security Council is in dire need of reform. Brazil, India, Japan and Germany are all US allies and responsible nations.
We should be careful not to belittle India’s desire for a seat on the UN Security Council. India is the World’s largest democracy, a natural ally and a potential counterweight to China. India’s economic growth is remarkable and with economic growth comes responsibility.
It doesn’t help our standing in India when Russia supports India on the Security Council and we don’t.
Let’s get out of the ‘Cold War’ mentality. The next great conflict is not going to be in Europe. This century is likely to be an Asian/American dominated affair. What clout does France and Britain have in Burma, North Korea, ‘The Stans’ and South East Asia?
We need to stop playing last century’s game this century.
