2. Veto Power - the body is paralyzed as US espouses Israel's interest, Russia its own interest. 3. It has failed to maintain peace as seen world grapples with violence in Ukraine & Gaza.

Has upheld core principles of peace & inclusive development. 4. Efficient voice of a moral earth. Hence, a shift towards expansion of BRICS & other multilateral bodies seem as UN becomes dysfunctional.
