Repeal
To submit a repeal, click the link UN resolutions throughout history on the UN page. In the list of passed resolutions that appears, every resolution has a link to Repeal this Resolution. Click the link below the resolution you want to repeal.
This is basicly submitting a proposal to repeal a resolution from the past. You need 2 endorsements to submit a repeal-proposal, and the repeal-proposal needs enough support from delegates to become a resolution. Repeals must also be phrased in such a way as to gather support, otherwise it becomes just another proposal to skip over and ignore.
Experience thus far indicates that simply submitting a repeal request will not automatically garner votes and approvals. The submitting nation will need to campaign heavily in the forums and by telegram if they have any expectation of passing the repeal.
