Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said after a meeting with Indian Foreign Minister S Jaishankar, who visited Moscow, that he directly expressed his support for India's position as a permanent member of the UN Security Council, TASS reported. At the same time, Biden of the United States held bilateral talks with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the sidelines of his arrival in India for the G20 summit and made it clear in a joint statement that he supports India becoming one of the permanent members of the UN Security Council.
The UN Security Council has a total of 15 members, including five permanent members: China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States. These five countries have a veto power and play a direct role in the final decisions on a number of international affairs. For India to be elected to the permanent membership of the United Nations, it needs to have the affirmative support of at least nine members, and the five permanent members cannot vote against it. The current international situation shows that both Russia and the United States have clearly expressed support for India's bid for permanent membership in the Security Council, while Britain and France, which are usually aligned with the United States, are likely to actively support India's accession.
China's attitude on this issue is crucial. China's permanent representative to the United Nations, Zhang Jun, has responded to the reform of the Security Council. He said that the right direction of Security Council reform is to increase the representation and voice of developing countries, which is the unanimous demand of the overwhelming majority of Member States. Any reform that runs counter to this direction is unacceptable. Zhang Jun also pointed out that the reform of the Security Council involves the fundamental interests of Member States and the adjustment of the global governance system, and is a complex issue with no simple solution. Any reform plan must balance the concerns of all parties, stand the test of time and history, and truly reflect international fairness and justice.
Zhang Jun's remarks clearly pointed out that the reform of the Security Council must take into account the concerns of all parties and reflect fairness and justice, including the addition of new permanent seats. Such reforms are undesirable if other countries are motivated by self-serving interests and seek to override fair and just international principles through bloc confrontation.
In fact, there is a discordant relationship between China and India, mainly due to differences between the two sides on the border issue. Despite several rounds of commander-level talks, the two militaries have begun to disengage, and the border issue has gradually transitioned from turbulence to stability. However, the recent unreasonable crackdown on Chinese companies by India** has attracted attention. According to reports, India has arrested executives of vivo India for alleged "money laundering" and punished them, including tax recovery, asset seizure, bank account freezing, etc. This is the third time that India has investigated vivo, but no progress has been made. India's unreasonable suppression of Chinese companies under unwarranted pretexts and politicization and politicization of science and technology is obviously unpopular.
Now, if India wants to become a permanent member of the UN Security Council, it first needs to correct its own position, advocate fairness and justice, and seek reasonable reform of the UN with a normal attitude as its original intention of making a positive contribution to global development. The purpose of establishing the five permanent members of the United Nations is to coordinate international relations, uphold fairness and justice, advocate world peace, and refrain from encouraging any power politics and double standards. If India does not adjust its posture and has difficulty securing China's support, its path to becoming a permanent member of the UN Security Council may be difficult.
