Africanize UN Security Council: Mugabe
2010-09-27
[Iran Press TV] Zimbabwean President Bob (Muggsy) Mugabe has called for the addition of at least two African nations as permanent UN Security Council members with full veto privileges.

In his address to the UN General Assembly, Bob said the United Nations, aka the Oyster Bay Chowder and Marching Society must allow African nations to play a more active role in the Security Council in particular, Press TV reported on Friday.

He criticized the UN Security Council, saying there should be a major overhaul of the UN's policies and guidelines.

On the second day of the annual high-level segment of the 192-member UN General Assembly, he also called for two more non-permanent seats on the Security Council to be reserved for African countries.

He went on to say that the economic sanctions imposed on Zimbabwe are illegal and should be scrapped immediately.

The people of Zimbabwe should, like the people of every other sovereign state, be left to freely determine their own destiny, he noted.

Mugabe also said the major powers are hypocritical because they preach democracy while in reality they fail to fulfill their promises.

#7  The real question is: Which bastion of human rights would we put in the council? ZimBoBwe? Rwanda? or possibly a north african muslim nation, since they've been bellyaching that they want on the council too. We could kill two birds with one stone that way.
