I didn't know you could be Vice President of the Assembly without paying your fees or being able to vote. Then again, the UN is the same group that allowed Saudi Arabia to chair their human rights comission. They sure do love their affirmative action.

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The United Nations says seven countries are so far behind in paying their dues that they are losing their voting privileges in the 193-member General Assembly, including Venezuela and Lebanon.
U.N. spokesman Stephane Dujarric said Friday that three other countries — Comoros, Sao Tome and Principe and Somalia — are also in arrears by the assembly decided in October that they can retain their vote until September.
He said the other countries that are losing their vote are Central African Republic, Gambia, Lesotho, Tonga and Yemen.
