there's the problem. that's why it happens such an undemocratic results like voting for the motion condemning the US embargo of cuba when a result was 137:3. three members against the motion: US, israel and uzbekistan.

" The United States has to realize it does not own Central America or any other part of the world, and that people have a right to shape their own destiny, to choose the type of government they want. We don't lose Cuba, we don't lose Nicaragua, because they were never ours to lose."
