Does a country that invades other states, bombs & murders civilians in hospitals, residential areas and kidnaps children BELONG in the UN Security council?

It is time to kick Putin's Russia off the UN Security Council

Unpunished evil grows - so why aren't we even contemplating expelling a terrorist state from their seat at the top table?

@Anastasiya but who should replace Russia on the Security Council
@gavinisdie I would say Ukraine (as a legal member of the UN and successor to the USSR), but really, should be just a majority vote of all members of the UN instead of a "security" council.
@Anastasiya Ukraine is an odd choice but it does make some sense as excluding Russia, Ukraine is basically the Sucessor to the USSR

@gavinisdie For your consideration, when I say that russia's seat is illegal, it's not just because russia is currently violating the UN chapter, it's because russia has no legal right to even be there:
"Since 1991, Russia has had a seat at the U.N. absolutely illegally, being the only participating country that has neither signed the organization’s 1945 founding Charter nor ever been voted a member by the General Assembly."

Russia Doesn’t Belong in the United Nations

Since 1991, Russia has had a seat at the U.N. absolutely illegally, being the only participating country that has neither signed the organization’s 1945 founding Charter nor ever been voted a member by the General Assembly.
