The United Nations goal is technically maintaining international peace and security. If they’re always afraid to do something when a country attacks another without provocation, out of fear of escalating the situation, why does it even exist?

I assume this is about Russia-Ukraine. First off, China has a huge backdoor if they want a chunk of Siberia. They should take it, but they’d get nuked, too.

The problem is the nuclear weapons and those who control them. When the US used them in Japan, there is an argument to be made that it saved lives, despite killing 100-200k people. Those 2 bombs ended the war.

People don’t recognize how advanced the weapons have become, and how if someone is losing the conventional battle, how a couple of countries have the capacity to flip the game board into the air and everyone dies.
