The problem is with our expectations of the UN. Its actually true that UNs have weak mandate. I mean why would our netas give them a strong mandate. They have to be careful not to be seen as too interfering lest India raise hackles for interfering in their backyard and of course our home grown cynic intellectuals raising hue and cry for meddling in our affairs. Ya UN is like a cow who offered to be milked and we/our netas agreed coz we could use some help. They didnt force themselves onto us for sure.

There are problems within UN no doubt and being a western inst. and the aid they dole out, sure they command influence, but its not as bad as people think or blame. The problem is with our own house. You cant blame others for the collapse if it was already crumbling.
