Since a while ago (I can't remember the exact date, but it was around 2000), every single year Argentina has presented a petition to restart negotiations with the UK over the supremacy of the Falkland Islands. And, every single year, it got approved. And, every single year, the UK shat on it and refused to begin negotiations.

So yeah, I wouldn't say it's exactly working. Perhaps it's useful for those countries with lots of power at stake among their ranks, but for small countries, no can do.

In my mind, it's more like a cruel joke, as someone said already, sort of like democracy. I know, it's the best we've got, but it's like this sort of game where everyone pretends to be fair and just, and things just don't work like that at all.
