Those who think little of the United Nations are constantly puzzled by the authority it continues to exert for many others around the world. On Monday, India decided against sending a major contingent of troops to Iraq because the operation would be outside the UN mandate, thereby reconfirming Secretary-General Kofi Annan’s point about the unique legitimacy of the world organization. Having initially been sympathetic to Washington’s request to contribute an army division (some 17,000 troops) for post-war security duty in Iraq – in particular to stabilize the situation in northern Iraq – Delhi in the end, “on balance of considerations”, said no.
