Detailed explanation-1: -September 18, 1934 general meeting of the League of Nations adopted a resolution on the admission of the USSR into the League and the inclusion of its representative to its Board as a permanent member.
Detailed explanation-2: -Be that as it may-after 15 years of opposition the USSR had joined the Organization which, judging at least by the declarations of its founders, was created in order to safeguard general peace and to prevent a new world war.
Detailed explanation-3: -Russia, now the Soviet Union, was not invited to join the League due to the radical policies of the new communist government. The Soviet Union finally became a member of the League in 1935. In November 1919, the US Senate voted against accepting membership to the League, and the nation never joined.
Detailed explanation-4: -Despite formulating the concept and signing the Covenant, the United States never joined the League of Nations, and some relatively-isolated sovereign states in Asia also did not join, including Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Mongolia, Nepal, and Bhutan.
