Red has it right - The Soviets staged a walk-out from the Security Council in protest and were boycotting the UN.

Because of this, the resolution was able to pass unanimously, getting the UN involved in the Korean War.

Link attached for the text of the resolution.

The UN passed a resolution calling on member states to provide military aid to South Korea in 1950. I would say, either the USSR and China voted for this, or abstained from the vote allowing it to pass without appearing to support North Korea publicly

The Russians made a mistake. They left the building. Communist China was not part of the security council then--Taiwan was. So we passed the vote while they were gone. Russia learned by this mistake.

The objective became that, i think of to become a allied u . s . because of the fact in international war2 it became very almost impossible for US to stay impartial, and additionally they grew to become the chief of the United countries. i think of the phobia became that the jap will benefit territories in Korea and there they might get clever components to apply in conflict, in international conflict 2 the Axis countries began to triumph over international places so, all of us became afraid that there will be a 2d international conflict in the event that they helped the rustic the axis countries have been conquering and simply by an identical reason the US government had feared that in the event that they do no longer help Korea quickly yet another international conflict might began and If there is Wolrd conflict 3 no human will stay to tell the story.
