Answer:

positive aspects of veto power-

They have unparalleled power and importance, possessing the responsibility of maintaining international peace, and security and the ability to make decisions other member states are forced to implement.

negative aspects of veto power-

A negative vote from any of the permanent members will block the adoption of a draft resolution. However, a permanent member that abstains or is absent from the vote will not block a resolution from being passed.
