Soviets Have Three Votes In United Nations
In a UN primer, the Soviet Union holds three votes while the United States once could have shared similar power. A 1945 Yalta pact granted three Soviet seats and pledged equal U.S. votes if desired, but details and implementation were kept secret and never enacted. The Ukraine and Byelorussia were founding members with limited influence, and their presence offered moral support rather than decisive power in UN decisions.
