Introduction:

The United Nations is hereafter conducting much more business on discord! There you can find a list of current Member States, the list of current UN Security Council Members, and channels for the use of the General Assembly and Security Council to propose, debate, and vote on resolutions in real time.

UN Trusteeship Council:

The UN Trusteeship Council (UNTC) regulates the UN’s trust territories. Please read the UN/IO guide for more details.

Only UNTC members may participate in the Council. Non-permanent UNTC members are elected for three-year terms, and unlike the UNSC, may serve consecutive terms. A list of current and prior UNTC members may be found on the UN spreadsheet. Presently, the UNTC consists of the five permanent members of the Security Council (United States, USSR, United Kingdom, France, the Republic of China), states who are currently serving as trustees (Australia, New Zealand), and temporary non-trustee members of the Council (Liberia). The number of non-trustee members will always be equal to the number of trustee members.

If you are a current UNTC member, please use the designated comments section to submit motions for the consideration of the Council at the end of the year.

1: Under the United Nations Charter, the Union of South Africa is generally expected to submit South West Africa (its mandate territory under the League of Nations) to the United Nations Trusteeship system. However, the International Court of Justice has ruled that South Africa is not obligated to submit South West Africa to a trusteeship agreement, and that the relationship between South Africa and South West Africa continues to be governed by the Mandatory agreement between them, but with the General Assembly assuming the responsibilities of the League of Nations Council.
