“If you choose not to vote with council, we will go our own path”
Exactly what should have been said. China and Russia aren’t going to support us in the UN. The only purpose of this security council meeting is to make clear our resolve. Remember, China intervened in the Korean war - on North Korea’s behalf. China was also colluding with Cuba and competing with the USSR for inroads in Cuba at the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis.
But our job is to protect our country, not worry about South Korea. Just my two cents.
Though I think the man from Japan was pretty upset.
