Without a doubt, Russia should be removed given that this position allows veto power. However, given that Ukraine is directly involved as the victim of Russia’s criminal invasion I don’t think, as Thiessen argues, that they should replace Russia. They probably deserve a seat on the Security Council, but given the lack of historical independence I would not hand them the veto power of a permanent seat. Norway, or perhaps Australia would be far more fitting in such a position.

I never agree with Marc Thiessen, but his column advocating for kicking Russia off the Security Council is spot on. And giving Ukraine its seat is fine with me. Ukraine is fighting for civilization as we know it. She has more than earned it.
