i know and I get that, didn’t stop them having a vote anyway last week to apply diplomatic pressure. They even somehow got China to abstain. Whilst it’s clear the UN is toothless, partly because of the Russian veto, it doesn’t stop you using it as a tool to continue trying to isolate Putin, I know he doesn’t care and will veto everything put in front of him but as an aside to all the other stuff the world is doing I still wonder if it isn’t worthwhile to keep pushing votes. Even if you don’t stand a chance of winning one.
