    I do think it would be a fantastic idea if UNSC vetos required another SC member to second said veto for it to actually go into effect

    Until the UK backed every US veto and China backed every Russian veto.

      That would still be an improvement. France is more European aligned than American - so they’re not a reliable yesman… and even the UK is better now than the days of Blair.

      Russia and China both want to avoid political isolation but they disagree on a lot of stuff.

      Allowing a two member veto would probably be much more stable.
