As a country with supreme power, its permanent members have the right of veto and have significant influence on a number of major global issues. At present, there are only five permanent members of the United Nations: the United States, Russia, China, the United Kingdom, and France, all of which are the result of the post-war world situation.
However, in today's international situation, many newly rising countries want to become permanent members of the United Nations in order to gain greater power and voice. Of these countries, India is the most active and resolute. India sees itself as an ancient civilization, with a large population, a strong economy, and a nuclear power, and therefore it has every right and must be granted permanent membership of the United Nations on an equal footing with other world powers.
This demand is not new to recent years, and when India established the United Nations in 1945, it also asked the United States to join it, but the United States opposed it. After that, India joined forces with Japan, Germany, and Brazil to form the "G4", with the aim of promoting the reform of the United Nations Security Council and striving to further increase the number of seats, so as to achieve "normalization" together with the other three major powers.
However, India's "normalization" process has not been smooth sailing, and it has encountered many obstacles and obstacles. First, the process of reforming the Security Council is cumbersome and must be endorsed by more than two thirds of the States Members of the United Nations and by the five permanent members. This means that any country is likely to object to India's demands, and many small countries do not want to disperse their rights to other countries.
Second, some countries have objections or doubts about India's "entry into normalcy". For example, Pakistan, Italy, Argentina, and some other countries do not approve of India's "normalization" because of historical disputes, geopolitical rivalries, or political differences with India. Moreover, if India were to become a permanent member, it would upset the regional balance of the United Nations, giving Asia two seats instead of regions like Africa and Latin America.
Third, India's "normalization" itself has its own problems. While India has strong cultural self-confidence and patriotism, there is also a tendency towards arrogance and self-deception. India places too much emphasis on its own history and culture and ignores its own realities and shortcomings. While India has achieved rapid growth, it also has many problems such as a large gap between the rich and the poor, social unrest, and backward infrastructure. Although India has shown strong initiative in foreign policy, it has also encountered difficulties in its confrontation with its neighbors, in its relations with major powers, in its relations with developing countries, and in its relations with other developing countries.
There is still a long way to go for India to "become normal", and this is inseparable from India's unremitting efforts and international understanding and support. India should abandon arrogance and prejudices and work hand in hand with other countries in a more open and inclusive manner to promote peace and development in the international community. Only in this way will India be able to gain the respect and recognition of the world, and hope that its dream of "normalcy" will be realized.
