As Chilean ambassador to the United Nations, Muñoz sat on the Security Council just prior to and immediately following the US invasion and occupation of Iraq, serving part of that time as the president of the Council. In this memoir, he describes the diplomatic wrangling surrounding the war. His central argument appears to be that when the US spurned multilateralism it created problems for itself and Iraq but that when it involved the UN, such as in setting the elections for the new Iraqi government, it was more successful.
