United Nations: Asserting that the UN Security Council still does not reflect the current geopolitical landscape, the G-4 nations of India, Brazil, Germany and Japan on Thursday warned that the longer its reform is stalled, the greater will be its deficit in representation.
India’s Permanent Representative to the UN Ambassador Ruchira Kamboj also said that only enhancing membership in both permanent and non-permanent categories will enable the powerful UN body to effectively manage current conflicts.
Delivering the statement on behalf of the G4 nations at the UN General Assembly plenary meeting on ‘Question of equitable representation on and increase in the membership of the Security Council and other matters related to the Security Council’, she asserted that it is high time to bring the UN Security Council in line with its Charter responsibility to act on behalf of the entire Membership.
