The current "Perm 5" are the United States, Russia, China, Great Britain and France. All of those countries except for France are major political, military and economic powers. France is the lone weak link and should step aside to make way for the European Union to take on a major leadership role. What says the Yahoo community?

First you should be ashamed of putting Riley as your avatar.

Second - France is a major military power globally and has a tremendous influence due to its nuclear arsenal.

In addition France's economic might is larger than Britan's. The only other country that could even roust Britain from the Perm 5 would be India and it would be the Perm 6 before they let India oust France, Russia, China, GB, or the States.

The EU isn't a country so it wouldn't qualify.

But I would suggest that Germany is a stronger European choice. And India has greater economic impact. Australia has always participated in greater number to any UN request for assistance.

Either of those three make more sense than France.

France may not be known as a military power, but they do have a large economy.

Let Mexico have the seat. They'd be better than France.

I agree, they are too dependent on foreign imports to make impartial judgments. Why not give the Netherlands the seat?
