Let us not forget that the UN was created by FDR and Churchill during WWII. There is a reason why the five permanent members of the Security Council are who they are: Those who stood in opposition to the Axis powers.

The stated aims of the United Nations are to prevent war, to safeguard human rights, to provide a mechanism for international law, and to promote social and economic progress, improve living standards and fight diseases. It gives the opportunity for countries to balance global interdependence and national interests when addressing international problems. Toward these ends it ratified a Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948.
