Abstract:

With Cold War tensions easing, the U.S.-Soviet conflict at the U.N. too can ease. By working together the two nations, which together contribute nearly 37 percent of the U.N.’s regular budget could control many, and probably most, of the U.N.’s actions. Cooperation between the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. on these issues will have many benefits. A well-managed U.N. will cost less, saving money for both nations.
