<And we support international organizations that actually have international work to do, even through the UN, see, e.g., WHO. But (picking at random) Zimbabwe doesn't have much in the way of international interests, and (again picking at random), Chile doesn't have much to tell Zimbabwe about its personal interests. At least, not yet.> Zimbabweans would like to have geostationary orbit allocations managed well. Spectrum flows everywhere. Rivers run through countries which I guess includes Zimbabwe. Air quality is everywhere. Climate is everywhere. Zimbabweans travel and would like to have a law of the sea and for aviation so that aircraft don't crash into each other or get hijacked, inter alia, casus bellicose, ipso facto, etcetera, [legal jargon which all international agreements should have as lawyers will want to get some money out of it]. Good point about Chile not having much to tell Zimbabwe about how to run Zimbabwe. I don't see why a constitution for a NUN should have a parks department included to lay down pruning techniques for individual plants, nor a tooth management supervisory authority to ensure Zimbabweans floss their teeth in a NUN approved style. A NUN constitution should only determine things which are international in effect, not how children should hold a toothbrush or how long a murderer should be imprisoned, or whether they should be executed or not.
