The point of the veto restraint is, at minimum, to raise the political cost for those who would block action designed to ensure that there are no more Cambodias, Rwandas, Srebrenicas, or Syrias. The French proposal, though still evolving, has already struck a responsive chord internationally.
否决权克制的关键点是至少要提高阻挠为了确保柬埔寨、卢旺达、斯雷布雷尼察和叙利亚悲剧不再发生而采取的行动的政治成本。法国的议案尽管仍在不断完善，但已经触动了国际反响之弦。其他“五常”成员国忽视这一信号是十分危险的。
