United Nations Security Council Resolution

The United Nations Security Council, a 15-member body, adopts resolutions through a vote of at least 9 members, except for permanent members which can veto non-procedural decisions. Resolutions can be classified as legally binding under Chapter VII or non-binding under Chapter VI, although this distinction is often unclear in practice. The Charter authorizes the Security Council to take action on behalf of all members and make decisions and recommendations. Article 25 requires member states to carry out Security Council decisions, while the International Court of Justice has confirmed the binding nature of Security Council resolutions.learn more on wikipedia
