Established    : 1945
Headquarter  : New York, Unites States.
​
The UN Security Council Charter established six main organs of the United Nations, including the Security Council. It gives primary responsibility for maintaining international peace and security.
According to the Charter, the United Nations has four purposes:
  • to maintain international peace and security;
  • to develop friendly relations among nations;
  • to cooperate in solving international problems and in promoting respect for human rights;
  • and to be a centre for harmonizing the actions of nations.
All members of the United Nations agree to accept and carry out the decisions of the Security Council. While other organs of the United Nations make recommendations to member states,  it is the only UN body with the authority to issue binding resolutions to member states. The Security Council held its first session on 17 January 1946 in London. Since its first meeting, the Security Council has taken permanent residence at the United Nations Headquarters in New York City. Beyond this the Council may opt for enforcement measures, including:
  • economic sanctions, arms embargoes, financial penalties and restrictions, and travel bans;
  • severance of diplomatic relations;
  • blockade;
  • or even collective military action.
Permanent and Non-Permanent Members
The Council is composed of 15 Members:
  • five permanent members: China, France, Russian Federation, the United Kingdom, and the United States and 
  • ten non-permanent members elected for two-year terms by the General Assembly
