Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Article 23 of the UN Charter names China, France, the Russian Federation (as successor to the USSR), the United Kingdom and the United States of America as the permanent members of the Security Council. Japan is not a permanent member; its terms as an elected non-permanent member do not change that. China, the United Kingdom and the United States of America are all permanent members.
