Small Group of Nations Manipulating UN: India's EAM Jaishankar
For long, India has been raising its voice in support of reforming the United Nations (UN). But frustration seemed to have grown in New Delhi in recent days due to lack of action over the matter.
India's Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar has accused a small group of nations of withholding reforms of the United Nations (UN).
"We genuinely believe that the overwhelming majority of members of the UN today want to see change. And it's a very small group of countries who do not want to do that and who, in a sense, are
manipulating the system," Jaishankar said in a YouTube video shared by India's External Affairs Ministry.
Jaishankar's remarks about the UN becoming a politicized organization come at a time when New Delhi has repeatedly urged permanent members of its Security Council to expand the body so that it reflects the
world's present-day geopolitical realities.
In June, Indian Ambassador to the UN, Ruchira Kamboj, criticized the Inter-Governmental Negotiations (IGN) held under a United Nations mechanism to discuss the enlargement of the Security Council, the top body of the organization.
With the IGN not yielding any tangible results over the issue of the expansion of the UNSC, Kamboj labeled the whole process a "wasted opportunity".
"As a responsible and constructive member of the United Nations, India will, of course, continue to engage in this process alongside our reform-minded partners, and persist with our efforts to move from repetitive speeches to
text-based negotiations. However, for those of us who truly wish to fulfill our leaders' commitment towards an early and comprehensive reform of the UN Security Council, looking beyond the IGN looks increasingly to us as the only viable pathway to a future
UN Security Council that would better reflect the world of today," Kamboj stated in his speech at the UN headquarters in New York.
In her swipe at the Inter-Governmental Negotiations over the issue, Kamboj claimed these discussions could go on for the next 75 years and yet would not be able to accomplish "genuine reform".
"This state of affairs is clearly in the interest of those who seek a status quo, to keep this process frozen in repetitive cycles," she concluded.
