China, France, Russia, UK and the US.

What if we replaced the UK with Egypt, and the US with Venezuala and France with Libya.

Do you think that the new SC will evince western values? Would you be OK with their support for dictatorships, fascism, bigotry against Jews, LGBT+, minorities? How do you suppose this fantasy SC, with the support of Arab/Persian countries will make the world a better place?

The truth is that western values form the basis towards the most efficacious path to a better world, many developing countries only offer greed, death and destruction. The rest have no voice.

Its incumbent on western leaders to help those that don't share progressive values to show them the path to a better world.
