Les États-Unis toujours isolés à l'O.N.U.


Très bon topo ce matin dans le Washington Post. Quels sont les appuis indéfectibles des États-Unis à l'O.N.U.?

 "It is important to keep things in perspective a bit. While the United States has few close friends whose votes it can always rely on, the conflict is not nearly as intense as it was during the Cold War, when the United States had close friends but also a much more powerful adversary. The graph shows that, too: However contentious politics at the United Nations is these days, the Cold War was still much worse. Moreover, votes in the U.N. General Assembly are largely symbolic. If the United States has to take some on the chin, this is not the worst place to do so."
