対米全面テロ

＞っとありまして↓だと思います、ですが、私にはチンプンカンプンで議長の役割について述べてあるのかわかりません(^^;

Rule 19

The President shall preside over the meetings of the Security Council and, under the authority of the Security Council, shall represent it in its capacity as an organ of the United Nations.

この規則19がそのようですね。あくまで会議の議長であり、進行と取りまとめを行うだけで、確たる権限があるわけではないようです。また、規則20では議長国が自らの判断で会議に欠席した場合はアルファベット順に次にくる理事国が議長代理を務めるとのこと。議長国がどこであるかというのは、あまり重要ではないようですね。

Rule 20

Whenever the President of the Security Council deems that for the proper fulfilment of the responsibilities of the presidency he should not preside over the Council during the consideration of a particular question with which the member he represents is directly connected, he shall indicate his decision to the Council. The presidential chair shall then devolve, for the purpose of the consideration of that question, on the representative of the member next in English alphabetical order, it being understood that the provisions of this rule shall apply to the representatives on the Security Council called upon successively to preside. This rule shall not affect the representative capacity of the President as stated in rule 19, or his duties under rule 7.
