Question 2

How can we say that the General Assembly is like an International Parliament?

Answer

The General Assembly takes decisions on important matters like the election of the non-permanent members of the Security Council, admission of new members, suspension of members, budgetary questions by a majority of members present and voting, etc. So, the General Assembly is like an International Parliament, where important issues are discussed and all the decisions are made by a majority vote.
