Imagine what this world would look like.
You would need total nuclear disarmament to begin with, because a world in which nuclear powers have a veto as a first line of defence and a nuclear weapon as a last line of defence, taking away their veto they would have just a last line of defence.
But then you need to somehow engineer a system in which perpetrators of major war crimes can be brought to account. This would be a world in which ASPA was repealed, the FBI would be able to arrest and investigate the US president, and every living US president would be in prison.
In such a world it might be conceivable that a) Putin be brought to justice by his own internal security apparatus and sent to the Hague, in this astonishing new system of democractic and lawful governance the likes of which humanity has neverbefore seen, or b) that it would be possible for chapter 7 article 51 to be applied and for the security council to assemble a military coalition to repel a war of aggression without risking the termination of the human experiment due to a nuclear exchange.
