The UN Charter sets out conditions of membership. Articles 1, 2.3 and 2.4 specifically forbid acts of aggression against other member states. Articles 5 and 6 lay out the procedure whereby offending states may first be suspended from UN membership and then, if they persist in breaking the rules of the UN Charter, be expelled. It is now time for Russia to be ejected from a body which has, as its main task the preservation of peace and the outlawing of aggression.
I suggest that leave a whataboutery fest to one side for the time being and concentrate on Russia's unprovoked invasion of Ukraine.
