Abstract

Seventy years after the establishment, organization of the United Nations is in serious crisis. Numbers of reform demands have increased. The UN Charter has an important deficiency- veto power of Security Council permanent members violates the principle of sovereign equality of states. Having in mind authorizations of the Security Council, its reform is one of the first associations when thinking on the reform of the United Nations. The links and common functions of the General Assembly and the Security Council could be one of the directions of the United Nations reform. It is necessary to establish balance within the powers of these two bodies, and give essentially significant and concrete powers to the General Assembly.
