“Not beyond India’s capacity…” UNGA Prez Dennis Francis on India’s bid for permanent seat at UNSC
Oct 10, 2023
New York (USA), October 10 (ANI): President of the United Nations General Assembly Dennis Francis congratulated India for its bid for a permanent seat at the United Nations Security Council. “Well, what I can say is, first of all, to congratulate India, on its ambitions to become a member of the UN Security Council. It is quite a witty responsibility to become a member of the council. But also to become a permanent member is an extremely witty responsibility, which I am sure is not beyond the capacity of the government of India. The question of when that will happen will be a question for, the members of the United Nations to decide, in the context of the reform agenda that's taking place within the Security Council. And let me emphasize consistent with what I have said before that security council reform is not an event. It's a process. In fact, it's an ongoing process,” said Dennis Francis while speaking to ANI on October 10.
