The UN security council is VERY effective at what it's actual purpose is, which is preventing all out nuclear war between the major super powers. That is why they are the ones with vetos.

Everything else is quite explicitly window dressing.

Mutually assured destruction does that. The security council has nothing to do with it. Also, at the time of its founding, the US was the only country with nukes, so that's not the logic behind who the permanent members are.

Ah, but not by many years. I guess it was more 'the global powers got nukes first', rather than 'the nuclear countries got the veto'. Interesting!
