PM Anwar calls for ban on UN Security Council veto power in cases involving mass atrocities

KUALA LUMPUR: United Nations Security Council veto power should be banned in cases of mass atrocities until it can be abolished, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

He said the council's decision-making processes require broader support from both permanent and non-permanent members and be subject to ratification by the General Assembly through a simple majority.
