Original Note:
The U.S. is not the only nation with veto power in the UN Security Council. Russia, China, France, and the UK are permanent members, therefore they can also veto any drafts. https://www.un.org/securitycouncil/content/voting-system Russia is the most frequent user of the veto, used also to support their allies.
