International Appeal
for a French Veto at the Security Council of the United Nations
To the President of the French Republic :

Mr. President,

According to the rules of the United Nations, each permanent member, i.e. C=
hina, the United States, France, Great Britain and Russia, has the sovereig=
n
power to block any Security Council resolution.

Enormous pressure is being exerted on leaders, on States and on public opin=
ion, to start a war against Iraq with unfathomable consequences.

Public opinion in your country, as in many other countries, is opposed to t=
his war.

Because France has means of action that other countries in Europe and in th=
e rest of the world do not have and that it is thus in charge of a
responsibility of historical import,

we ask of you:

In virtue of the power given you by the constitution of your country and of=
the power bequeathed you by the rules of the United Nations;

To demand that any war declaration made against Iraq be put to the vote at =
the Security Council;

To use France's right of veto to block any resolution that would allow the =
start of a war against Iraq.
