Solution
(II) is the reason for (I).
Explanation:
Statement (II) provides the evidence and reason for Statement (I). The General Assembly is recognised as the main deliberative and governing organ of the UN precisely because it holds supreme decision-making powers. Its authority to elect the non-permanent members of the Security Council, the Economic and Social Council, and the Trusteeship Council demonstrates its central, supervisory role over all other major organs of the United Nations.
