U.S. Mission to the United Nations
(redirected from US Mission to the UN)

U.S. Mission to the United Nations

It promotes U.S. interests before the UN and, like the missions of four other countries, has veto power over Security Council resolutions. Because the U.S. is a founding member of the UN, the mission has existed since 1947.
