Summary/Abstract: The military aggressions involving various states in the recent period raise significant and substantial problems regarding the possibility of maintaining a right of veto regarding the intervention in the conflict of some international organizations in order to restore peace. Given that the notion of the right of veto extends to many areas such as the economic, the social, the free passage of goods and services, the possibility of development on the labor market and the military, it cannot be completely abandoned the prerogative of exercising such a right in its entirety. As in the current international context, most of the world’s states have joined or are preparing to join international organizations with economic and security purposes, and these organizations have as principles the granting of the right of veto for decisions regarding international political cooperation and their functioning, it can be admitting the necessity of a division of the prerogatives conferred by the right of veto. The article aims to analyze the essential prerogatives that the right of veto gives to the member states of an international organization and the possibility of maintaining them against the backdrop of military conflicts that have arisen at the international level recently. Conclusions of the paper will aim to determine the sustainability of the right of veto in the current international context.
