Well, of course i understand you joke, Snow.
Well, in fact, i wouldn't say this. UN is necessary, but not in this form. Present UN status, and first of all the fucking veto right, makes UN a powerless puppet, facing crisis where a nation belonging to the permanent security council is involved. UN can do something, if it wants and, of course, when it finally decides it (remember the former Yougoslavia war in the 90's...) for some crisis, well, let's say in Africa or others parts of the world, when relatively "secondary ranked" nations, with inverted commas, are involved. But, as soon as nations as USA, Russia, China, United Kingdom and France are involved in such crisis, the arrogant veto right of these nations will block everything. Move along, people, there's nothing to see here. This veto right is a nonsense and UN status doesn't fit anymore for this world in XXI st century.

France renounces for now to deliver a Mistral carrier to Moscow
From Reuters.fr - September 3, 2014 - 20:47 French time
"The recent actions of Russia in the east of Ukraine contravene the foundations of security in Europe," says the French presidency in a statement.
"The president noted that, despite the prospect of a cease-fire to be confirmed and to be implemented, the conditions for France to authorize the delivery of the first PCB doesn't fit today. "

Well, afaik, the delivery of the first one, named Vladivostok, was officially planned for November 2014, so, at this moment, nobody seems out of contract and the tests of this first vessel are currently in progress in French waters, with a Russian crew of 400 men in training, trainings conducted by several tens of French technicians. So, wait and see...

NATO is creating a permanent military base and command center here in Romania.
I hope that they come here to Hunedoara and also fix our streets full of holes
Maybe they can also open the closed rooms in our castle since they were closed
some many years ago to the public
Good job Mr. President
