New York (Web Desk): Pakistan has told the UN General Assembly again that India does not even qualify for a seat on the 15-member United Nations Security Council (UNSC), citing New Delhi’s violations of its resolutions on Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK).
India — along with Brazil, Germany and Japan — has been campaigning for a permeant UNSC membership.
Speaking to the UN General Assembly (GA) on Monday, Pakistan's Permanent Representative Ambassador Munir Akram, reaffirmed Islamabad’s opposition to adding new permanent members in UNSC and reminded the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) that the South Asian country [India] had waged 20 wars since independence and fomented terrorism and instability across the region, especially against Pakistan.
One country, most insistent on #SC membership, has proclivity for use & threat of use of force;fomented terrorism across our region; violated #UNSC resolutions; targets innocent lives on #LoC.This has no qualification for #SC, permanent or even non-permanent membership:Amb Akram pic.twitter.com/w0eVxcFB5F
