This Eurth-related article is a stub.The Assembled Nations Security Council (often abbreviated as ANSC) is a pivotal component of the Assembled Nations, established to maintain international peace and security. The Security Council comprises 10 countries, falling into two key categories: permanent members and non-permanent members. The Assembled Nations Security Council operates under the umbrella of its AN parent organisation, and communicates in the same official languages.
Formation
The Assembled Nations Security Council was formed in 1958 following the Treaty of Deva. This treaty was signed in response to global conflicts that threatened international peace. The initial council was smaller, with 7 countries, but was expanded in 1989 to accommodate a more inclusive representation of global powers.
Operations
The ANSC operates through monthly plenary sessions and numerous committees that focus on various aspects of global security, ranging from disarmament to counter-terrorism. Whenever a security threat emerges, an emergency session can be convened within 48 hours.
Members
Permanent members
Permanent members wield significant influence. They have the power to veto resolutions, allowing them to block the council's substantive decisions. This veto power is a critical feature of the council's decision-making process, ensuring that major international actions require broad agreement among the most powerful nations.
Permanent membership in the ANSC signifies a position of significant influence and responsibility. This status was established following $conflictName, reflecting the global power structure at that time. This arrangement was designed to ensure that major international actions have the support of the most powerful nations, thereby maintaining a balance of power in international relations.
Permanent members have the power to veto resolutions, which gives them substantial control over the council's decisions. The veto power is used to block resolutions that they disagree with. This power has been both praised and criticised. It is seen as a way to ensure that major decisions have broad support among the world's most influential nations, thereby maintaining a balance of power. However, it has also been criticised for allowing individual countries to obstruct resolutions that have wide international support, potentially leading to situations where necessary actions are delayed or prevented.

Budget
For the fiscal year 2024, the ANSC was allocated a budget of A$ 500 million. This is used to support peacekeeping operations, administrative costs, research initiatives, and conflict resolution efforts. Member countries contribute to the ANSC's budget based on a scale agreed upon every three years, taking into account the GDP of each member state.
Staff
The ANSC employs approximately 5,000 individuals, including diplomats, administrative staff, and specialists in various fields such as international law, military strategy, and conflict resolution. The Secretariat of the ANSC oversees the administrative functions and is led by the General Secretary. The staff is diverse, representing over 139 nationalities, reflecting its commitment to global representation.
Affiliations
The ANSC has several affiliations with regional organisations to bolster its efforts in maintaining peace and security:
- Entente of Oriental States (EOS) – Working together on maritime security and trade route protection in and around the Oriental ocean.
- Group of Island Nations (GIN) – Partnering to address the common challenges of island countries.
The ANSC also has observer status in several other international organisations, and maintains diplomatic backchannels with many nations to ensure swift communication in times of crisis.
