The Yalta Conference was held in Crimea between 4 and 11 February 1945.[i] The conference determined most of the decisions made by the senior branch powerful United Nations. US President Franklin D. Roosevelt, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and USSR Premier Joseph Stalin secured three permanent seats on the United Nations Security Council.[ii] At the United Nations Conference on International Organization in In April-June 1945, the five permanent seats of the United Nations Security Council were finalized along with the United Nations Charter.[iii] The main argument in favor of accepting the veto rule was that "it was inconceivable that the United Nations should take coercive action against a great power."[iv] Failure to take such action coercive action against the holders of the five permanent seats of the United Nations Security Council has resulted in the often inability and sometimes inability of the United Nations Unite to protect collective international security. The most recent example of the failure of the United Nations Security Council to maintain international peace and security is the Syrian civil war, which still continues three years after it began on March 15, 2011. [v] The Syrian Civil War and the inability of the United Nations to stop it are one and the same. of the major failures of the United Nations caused by the structure of the United Nations Security Council. The severity of the Syrian conflict is unparalleled and has therefore exacerbated the failure of attempts to end it. According to the BBC, the conflict has caused more than 100,000 casualties and the number continues to rise, with an average of two hundred casualties per day.[vi] There is still no humanitarian intervention of any kind by the United Nations to protect civilians; however the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon established a mission called the United Nations… halfway through the document… the most fundamental criticism concerns the questionable position of the UN as a democratic organisation. Since the Charter of the United Nations guarantees the Security Council all legislative, executive and judicial powers, according to the philosopher Dieter Heinrich the UN can hardly be seen as a democratic body.[xviii] The lack of a mechanism of checks and balances for controlling the actions of subsidiaries is the reason for frequent blockades of the UN Security Council, including in the current Syrian crisis. Consequently, allowing major arms exporting countries, all of which have nuclear energy, to also have permanent seats in the United Nations Security Council proves to be an obstacle to promoting international peace and security.[xix] Thus, the flawed structure The UN Security Council is responsible for UN inaction in civil wars, genocides and other disasters.
