While a US commitment that NATO would not expand towards Russia was made during talks with the Soviets in 1990, and remains a topic of heated dispute, no undertaking was written into the treaty on German reunification.

Even if it was, that was the USSR, Not Russia. While the rest of the world has generally accepted Russia as taking over the USSR seat as a drop in replacement across the board, Russia has been pulling back from former Soviet agreements that they don’t like lately.
The rest of the world should probably do the same across the board. For instance, as a compromise Russia can keep their UN Security Council seat, but they lose their veto. The seat and veto were for the USSR, not Russia.
They should straight up lose their seat, maybe Ukraine gets it lol
Why should they keep their security council seat
