Kenya’s Permanent Emissary to the United Nations, Martin Kimani, has cast doubt regarding the UN’s longevity, cautioning of its potential demise after its inaction in the Ukraine and Palestine conflicts. But mere criticism will not halt the UN's weakening,” stated Kimani. However, he also cautioned the world’s major powers for their silence on the matter and their tendency to act in self-interest. “The enduring fact is that the major powers will always act in their perceived self-interest; to believe otherwise is naive," explained Kimani. In addition to cautioning the major powers, Ambassador Kimani reiterated that the wars weaken the resolve of the UN and diminish the influence held by friendly nations in the Permanent Membership of the Security Council.
