| Jun 8, 2023 at 18:07 | comment | added | Ram | This question, as asked, is either political or badly formed. When investigating using stats it is critical to correctly formulate the question otherwise the answer is skewed along the lines that the question is. Consider that the UN security council is by design heavily stacked with the less "savory" countries along side the larger ones. Consequently it is heavily politicized; as such the answer to your question really reveals what country is most interesting politically on the global scale and likely reveals what country is most disliked by council members. My guess: the USSR and Israel | |

The stuff that gets put to a vote in such cases is often a case of using the vote as a public relations venue. | |
