*In a significant address at the 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly on Thursday, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer expressed his support for India to become a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC). This endorsement aligns with recent calls from US President Joe Biden and French President Emmanuel Macron for India’s inclusion.*
*Starmer highlighted the need for the Security Council to evolve into a more representative body. He stated, “The Security Council has to change to become a more representative body, willing to act – not paralyzed by politics.”*
*He advocated for permanent representation from Africa, Brazil, India, Japan, and Germany, along with increasing seats for elected members.*
Changes nothing.
China is going to say no just to spite India
So adding India would be interesting. India is well known for playing both to Russia and to the US depending on what is needed at any given moment. I bet both Russia and the US want India onboard to handle China, and it will bite them back.
