Why would the president seek approval from the united nations to take military action in a foreign country?

Hi there!

One such reason is the fact that the UN's job is to maintain peace and help other countries. If the president went to them, he can see what they think the best option is, being as they are not just apart of the US, and their main objective is to help other countries!

Hope this helps!
