The president of the USA Georges Bush has called to make Japan one more constant member of UN Security Council, which is having five countries. Bush has told that the USA “are opened to prospect” expansions of Security Council.
Making speech at UN General Assembly meeting, Bush has also emphasized that they consider, that Japan meets all requirements for constant membership in Security Council and that other countries also can be considered as further candidates.
Let’s remind that the question on expansion of Security Council is being discussed within last decade. Germany, Japan, Brazil and India apply for a constant place in Security Council. However, till now this question remains unsolved. It has not been decided yet how many countries may apply for constant membership in Security Council, what countries need to be made constant members and whether they should have a veto right.
Now the UN Security Council includes 5 constant members, possessing veto right: Russia, the USA, the Great Britain, France and China. Ten more members of the United Nations participate in sessions of Security Council on a rotational basis, being replaced by each two years. Meanwhile the significant part of UN members considers, that the Security Council has ceased to be representative, and its politician is dictated by interests of the developed countries.
