Can russia be removed from United Nations?

"The General Assembly may expel a member from the United Nations. But a Security Council vote to expel a member of the United Nations is required before the General Assembly can vote on it. That preliminary council vote requires the unanimous consent of its permanent members. Russia is a permanent member."

war is a violent extension to diplomacy, but it takes diplomacy to end the violence

(von Clausewitz I think)

kicking russia out of the UN would disable that diplomacy that is required to end the war

@Tracos russia can not be kicked out of the UN even if every country wanted that. They could unleash nuclear war on Ukraine and or all of NATO and their position in the UN remains secure.
