Which of the following best describes how the United Nations (UN) is able to implement its decisions?

a. Asking for funding from all member nations to obtain appropriate resources
b. Through five permanent members of its security council
c. Sending military units to developing countries
d. Using its moral authority and world opinion


ANS: D
Regardless of size, wealth, or political system, all member nations have an equal vote in the decision-making process. UN decisions reflect world opinion and the moral authority of the community of its 192 nations. The UN does not ask for funding from all member nations, as some of the nations do not have additional funds to provide to the UN. The security council is unable to implement decisions without support from all of the member nations. It is not feasible for the UN to send military units to developing countries to implement their decisions.
