Ep5 - UN Veto: Why the World's Peacekeeper is Powerless
Description
In this unmissable episode of The Italian Uncut, we expose the inconvenient truth behind the United Nations' struggle to resolve global conflicts. We dive deep into decades of ignored UN resolutions against Israel and the selective disregard for international law by the United States. From the Palestinian right of return to the Cuba embargo and the Nicaragua ruling, we reveal why the UN, despite its vast theoretical power, often acts like 'a pencil without lead, a gun without bullets.' Join us as we dissect the paralyzing mechanism of the Security Council's veto power, showing how a WWII-era structure and a handful of nations continue to hold global peace hostage. We don't just point out the problem; we propose radical but essential reforms: a more representative Security Council and a majority-based veto system to finally make the UN an effective force for collective good. It's time to understand why our global institutions are failing and what it truly takes to build a world of cooperation over conflict. Tune in!
