Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has questioned why countries like India, Japan, Brazil and his own people are not permanent members of the UN Security Council and say “that day will arrive when this will be resolved.”
There are many talks about reforming the United Nations. How did everything end? There is no result, Zelenskyy said in his message who had been recorded previously to world leaders in the general debate of the UN General Assembly on Wednesday.
If you look carefully at our peace formula, you will see that the implementation has become a de facto reform from the United Nations. Our formula is universal, and unites the north and south of the world. This requires the majority of the world, and encourages to expand their remaining representations. This is an imbalance when Africa, Latin America, most of Asia, Central and Eastern European comply with Veto’s rights, which they never have, “he said
And this is what Ukraine discussed. And have you ever heard of words like that from Russia? But that is a permanent member of the Security Council. For some reason. For what reason, not Japan or Brazil, not Turkey or India, not Germany or Ukraine. That day will come when this will be resolved, “he said.
India has been at the forefront of efforts at the United Nations to encourage the long -delayed reform of the Security Council, emphasizing that it deserves a place in the UN high table as a permanent member.
