SNAPSHOT: The world stands still – UN security council observes minute of silence for Nelson Mandela
As tributes continue to pour in for the late Nelson Mandela, the world literally stood still for the icon.
Members of the United Nations Security
Council were photographed earlier today observing one minute of silence
in honour of the freedom fighter and anti-apartheid campaigner.
The UN Security Council consists of 15
members, 5 of whom represent China, France, Russia, the UK, and
the US,
who are the permanent members of the council.
