Yes that is surprising, and interesting. I am surprised that it would not have been cheaper to obtain ice from the Himalayas, or from Russia.
So some questions regarding the United Nations that should not require Google searching, just knowledge of some basic facts about history as well as awareness of recent current events.
When and where was the United Nations first chartered? What country most recently joined the UN and how many member states does the UN now have?
Slightly more difficult bonus question. Name one universally recognized country that is not a member of the UN?
