"Only Russia, China and Brazil voted in favour of the Russian-drafted text on Monday, while the
remaining 12 council members abstained. ..."
Err...so obvious.... Of those 12, 3 are already western perm members : France, UK & US...
The remaining 9 are either small nations or pro-US countries : Albania, Ecuador, Gabon, Ghana, Japan, Malta, Mozambique, Switzerland & UAE
Brazil stands out as the only non-Perm developing country which is also member of the powerful BRICS.
