Namaste all,
i'm curious regarding folks overall views... perhaps i should have made a poll about it but i'd prefer more thoroughly explained ideas.
my question is primarily thus: does the United Nations have the authority to create new nation states through the re-drawing of political boundaries?
i'm quite curious to know, for the negative respondents, if this view applies to all nation states which the UN has created or only to selected ones?
to be frank with you this is the sort of thing for which i turn to history to guide my views yet there has never been a thing like the United Nations and thus it really leaves me without any historical precedence to compare it with. to a certain extent, i suppose, it could be viewed in the same manner as a newly formed nation which then composes political boundaries for its' territory.
