What was accomplished during the meeting of heads of states at the United Nation?

Lots of inspirational speeches but does anyone listen? Did Obama convince Khadafy, Kim Il, Ahmanedajd (sp?) and Hugo Chavez to to conform with internationally agreed rules and treaties? Seemed like it's the same rhetoric at the United Nations as last year and the years before that.What was accomplished during the meeting of heads of states at the United Nation?
The Security Council voted unanimously that all nuclear weapons should be gotten rid of, doesn't that count for something? Certainly wasn't one of Bush's priorities.What was accomplished during the meeting of heads of states at the United Nation?
Don't hold your breath.

1: Well there was the issue of climate change which you seem to be ignoring. Japan agreeing to a 25% reduction in greenhouse gases by 2020 and China agreeing to reduce energy intensity.





2: There was the advancements on nuclear non-proliferation that somebody else mentioned.





3: Creation of the Global Jobs Pact.





4: Creation of the Global Impact Vulnerability Alert System.





5: They devised an agreement whereby in the case a global flu pandemic certain countries would donate vaccines to those countries without the necessary resources.





Global politics is much broader then a simple focus on nuclear proliferation. Iran and North Korea have every right to develop nuclear capabilities, as worrying as that may be and the UN is simply a mediator, they can't just go flexing their muscles and expect everyone to bend to the will of the west.
Absolutely nothing was accomplished. Nothing much has been accomplished at the UN in 60 years.
nothing, as usual
