Jaishankar acknowledged that efforts to "block" India's path with obstacles and arguments are expected, yet he remains "more confident" now in overcoming these hurdles than in the past decade. He highlighted India's strong performance in UN body elections as a sign of its growing global influence, anticipating a future where India's impact is significantly larger. The UNSC currently consists of five permanent members - China, France, Russia, the UK, and the US, with the unique ability of these members to veto any substantive resolution.
