Zeid Ra'ad al-Hussein, the outgoing United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, warned that the five permanent-member states on the UN Security Council wield too much power. China, France, the UK, Russia and the United States are "running too much of the business" because they are able to veto resolutions put forward by other UN members, said Hussein in Geneva. "That has to change: otherwise in the end the organisation can collapse at great cost to the international community." he added.
