Tensions are high in the Security council!

Today as a dream team (and yes I mean both of us, Elina and Dimitris) we are attending the Security Council committee. The first one was being discussed for more than two hours and it finally passed! So many amendments, so many speeches, so many points of information! China and Russia were going to veto but in the end they seemed to be in a good mood, after yesterday’s exhausting conference. No speech, though, by the beautiful Colombian delegate, but a lot of note passing. Do not let us down! Delegates laugh and seem to enjoy every moment of ACMUN! The delegate of China isn’t satisfied as easily.  Does Germany form an “alliance” with Russia? That’s interesting. In the second clause discussed today the P-5 (the five countries that can veto) look like they are not going to end up with a good conclusion for all the delegations of the committee. Generally, a bunch of amendments passed while others did not. There was a lot of voting as well. The main question about all the clauses, amendments etc. is the following: Is China going to veto? Is the situation going to change tomorrow?
