India has once again started efforts to get temporary membership of the United Nations Security Council i.e. UNSC. This temporary membership will be for the period 2028-2029. India has also started its official publicity for this.

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar launched the campaign ‘Peace: India – Norms, Trust and Allegiance for the UN Security Council 2028-29’ during a special event organized at the UN Headquarters. Permanent representatives, diplomats and senior officials of various countries in the United Nations were present in this program.

India said its approach towards the United Nations is based on the concept of ‘peace’, which means ensuring overall progress through norms, trust and integrity. Earlier, India had been a temporary member of the Security Council for the period 2021-22.

India competes with which country?

Elections for the term 2028-29 of the UNSC will be held in June next year. There will be a contest between India and Tajikistan for the sole seat in the Asia-Pacific group.

Jaishankar is also scheduled to meet United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres. Earlier, he was on a visit to Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait and Oman from July 5 to 10. He reached New York during the weekend. He will participate in the third meeting of the India-EU Trade and Technology Council in Brussels on July 14-15 and will also meet his counterparts from the European Union and Belgium.

UNSC elections at a time when there are many changes in the world

This election of the United Nations Security Council will take place at a time when the world is facing a rapidly changing geopolitical scenario. Events like Ukraine war, Gaza conflict and US-Israel military action against Iran are giving a new direction to global politics.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while addressing the Parliament of Indonesia last week, had said that the global system is changing rapidly, at such a time developing countries like India want equal participation and a more effective role in global affairs. He had said that in this changing global scenario, reform of the United Nations Security Council has become necessary.

India has been an advocate of reform in UNSC

India has long been a key supporter of the demand for comprehensive reform of the UN Security Council. He says that the 15-member Security Council formed in 1945 is no longer in accordance with the needs of the 21st century and the current geopolitical realities. Therefore, the number of members in both the permanent and temporary sections of the Council should be increased. India has also been continuously reiterating that it is a legitimate claimant to the permanent membership of the Security Council.

By creating diplomacy, economic-army pressure…what did America’s Vice President JD Vance say on the deal with Iran?

India’s permanent representative to the United Nations, Ambassador Harish Parvatneni, slammed Pakistan in the UNSC meeting. In the meeting regarding Afghanistan, he said that it is an old habit of Pakistan to blame its neighbors for its failures. This attempt to mislead the world will fail.

The Indian envoy said, ‘India wishes to emphasize the importance of the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) and its work and extend full support in these difficult circumstances, as it tries to promote peace and stability in Afghanistan. In its statement today, Pakistan raised questions about the intentions of UNAMA and the veracity of the UNSG report. We wish to emphasize that supporting multilateralism and the United Nations is not a ‘pick-your-own’ menu. Pakistan’s military airstrike campaign against Afghanistan is causing huge loss of life and property to civilians and the Afghan people are suffering. We reiterate the Secretary-General’s deep concern over the civilian casualties caused by airstrikes, cross-border firing and targeted killings, as reported by UNAMA.’

India scolds PAK on airstrike in Afghanistan

India strongly condemned Pakistan’s airstrike in Afghanistan during the month of Ramadan. P Harish said, ‘India strongly condemns the airstrike in Afghan territory, which is a flagrant violation of international law, the UN Charter and the principle of state sovereignty. According to UNAMA, 372 civilians were killed and 397 injured in the first three months of this year alone; Most of these people were killed during the holy month of Ramadan – a time of peace, compassion and introspection, which makes these acts all the more reprehensible. “We reiterate UNAMA’s call to adhere to our responsibilities under international humanitarian law – such as the principles of caution, differentiation and proportionality – to protect civilians from harm.”

He further said that no religion, law or morality can justify such actions! I say it again – calling a genocide a military action does not absolve the perpetrators of it. Killing, maiming or orphaning civilians is not an anti-terrorism action. Talking about the high principles of international law and Islamic solidarity while simultaneously carrying out brutal air strikes during the holy month of Ramadan is the biggest example of hypocrisy. It is an old habit of Pakistan to blame its neighbors for its failures. This attempt to mislead the world will fail.

India also narrated on Fitna-al-Hindustan

Apart from this, P Harish said, ‘Islamabad calling the groups operating within its borders ‘Fitna al-Hindustan’ is nothing but an officially sponsored misinformation campaign and propaganda wrapped in religious terminology.’ According to reports circulated by Pakistani media, the Pakistan government last year officially declared all terrorist groups and organizations operating in Balochistan province as Fitna al-Hindustan and alleged without providing any evidence that these organizations are involved in terrorism at the behest of India. Parvataneni described it as ‘the result of an organized factory of hatred run by the ruling establishment of Pakistan, whose objective is to keep its citizens in a state of permanent hostility against India, so as to maintain their grip on power and control over national resources.’

Pakistan has been fostering terrorism for years and this trend is still going on. India has once again slammed Pakistan on the issue of terrorism. He has exposed Pakistan in front of the whole world. India has said in the United Nations that Pakistan will have to accept that sponsoring cross-border terrorism has to face consequences. India also said that it has every right to protect itself from terrorist attacks.

India’s permanent representative to the United Nations, Harish Parvatneni, said in the UN Security Council meeting on Tuesday (May 26), ‘Today I have to respond to Pakistan’s baseless and unfair comments. India wants to clarify the facts. He said, ‘Independent India started its existence by fighting Pakistan’s cross-border aggression. Pakistan was claiming those Indian territories which had become part of India due to valid, complete and irrevocable merger.

Parvataneni’s strong reaction against Pakistan came during the Security Council debate on upholding the purposes and principles of the UN Charter and strengthening the UN-centred international system. China, which is chairing the 15-member Security Council for May, hosted the meeting.

China’s Foreign Minister Wang Yi presided over the inaugural session of the meeting. While addressing the Security Council debate, Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar raised the issue of Jammu and Kashmir and also mentioned the Indus Water Treaty. India had suspended this treaty after the Pahalgam terrorist attack in April 2025. 26 civilians were killed in this attack.

‘Pak is conspiring to weaken India;

‘The Resistance Front’ (TRF), a front organization of Pakistan-based terrorist organization Lashkar-e-Taiba, had taken responsibility for this attack. Criticizing Pakistan, Parvataneni said, ‘Pakistan’s use of cross-border terrorism and its doctrine of ‘weakening India by giving a thousand wounds’ exposes the hollow rhetoric of its commitment to the UN Charter.’

He said, ‘India has every right to protect itself from such cross-border terrorism. Pakistan has to accept that sponsoring cross-border terrorism has consequences. The Indian Ambassador said that by waging several wars, showing unprovoked aggression against India and continuously supporting cross-border terrorism, Pakistan has violated the principles of sovereignty, territorial integrity and peaceful co-existence.

US Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz has said that Iran is becoming isolated in the world because of its actions. He alleged that Iran is carrying out illegal activities in international sea lanes. This includes laying mines in the sea and collecting toll from ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz. Mike Waltz, posting on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), said that the resolution brought against Iran in the United Nations Security Council has received the support of 113 countries. Iran’s activities have been criticized in this resolution.

US Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz also said that countries like India, Japan and South Korea have also supported this initiative. America says that Iran’s activities are affecting international maritime trade and security. The Strait of Hormuz is considered one of the most important sea routes in the world, from where a large amount of oil and gas is supplied. In such a situation, the increasing tension there has become a matter of concern for the whole world.

Ceasefire between America and Iran

There has been a ceasefire between America and Iran for several weeks. The situation between the two countries had become so bad that the risk of war had increased in the entire West Asia. After this, in April 2026, a temporary ceasefire i.e. ceasefire was implemented between the two sides, due to which the situation calmed down for some time. US President Donald Trump later announced to extend the ceasefire, but also maintained pressure on Iran. America continues to take a tough stance regarding Iran’s military activities and its nuclear program. On the other hand, Iran has clearly warned that if America attacks again, it will be given a strong response. Iran says that it will take every necessary step to protect its security and interests.

China openly supported the appointment of a woman for the next Secretary General of the United Nations, saying that it would be very happy if this time a woman occupies this top post. In the 80 year history of the United Nations, no woman has yet been able to reach this position.

China’s Permanent Representative and Ambassador to the United Nations Fu Kong said on Monday (May 4, 2026), ‘We would be very happy to see a woman as Secretary General. It has been 80 years – if this time a woman can become the General Secretary, China will welcome it.

The process of electing the next Secretary General of the United Nations has started. There are currently four candidates in the race for this post, including two women. The first woman is Michelle Bachelet, United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, and the second woman is Rebecca Grinspan, Secretary-General of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD).

Male candidates include International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) chief Rafael Grossi and former Senegalese President Macky Sall. Last month, all four candidates presented their vision to UN member states and civil organizations and why they are best suited for the top post.

When Ambassador Fu Kong was asked if China had a favorite candidate, he said with a smile, ‘Even if there was, I wouldn’t tell you.’ However, he definitely made it clear that China has some priorities. Fu said that the United Nations is currently going through a very delicate period and in such a situation, there is a need for a strong Secretary General who is committed to multilateralism, strengthens the role of the United Nations and does not blindly follow the policies of any one superpower.

He also said that China wants the next Secretary General to be a supporter of the three basic pillars of the United Nations – peace and security, development and human rights. The second five-year term of the current UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres will be completed in December 2026. He took over as the ninth Secretary General of the United Nations in 2017.

The Secretary General is appointed by the 193-member General Assembly on the recommendation of the Security Council. The five permanent members of the Security Council – China, France, Russia, Britain and America – have the right to veto. In September last year, the United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution expressing “regret” that till date no woman has become Secretary-General and urged member countries to give priority to women candidates.

China on Friday took over the presidency of the Security Council for the month of May. Ambassador Fu said that efforts will be made to give a concrete shape to the process of selection of the Secretary General under the chairmanship of China. He said, ‘We will start consultation on this at the beginning of this month and hopefully the selection process will start completely by June-July.’ Fu indicated that more candidates could also join the race for the post of UN Secretary General in the coming weeks.
