It allows any permanent member to block a resolution.
The ‘Veto Power’ in the UN Security Council grants the five permanent members (China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States) the ability to block any substantive resolution, regardless of the level of international support it receives. This power gives them significant influence over UN actions and decisions, making cooperation among the permanent members crucial for effective global governance. It ensures that no resolution can be adopted if it is opposed by any of the permanent members, thereby safeguarding their respective interests and ensuring balance in international relations.
