Which of the following statements about the admission of a new State into the United Nations is correct?

Under Article 4(2) of the UN Charter, admission to membership is effected by a decision of the General Assembly upon the recommendation of the Security Council; the Assembly cannot admit a State without that recommendation, and the Secretary-General has no power of admission. Admission does not amount to recognition by every member: Israel was admitted in 1949 although several member States did not recognise it.
