Africa-Press – Cape verde. <\/strong><\/span>The United Nations General Assembly has concluded talks on Security Council reform. Many have agreed on the need for modernization, while opinions on the appropriateness of veto power differed. During the UN General Assembly discussion on Security Council reform, African representatives actively called for making the body more inclusive.<\/p>\n

A delegate from Senegal said that the Security Council cannot remain “frozen in the past.” According to him, reform is necessary for creating a more democratic and effective body that is capable of managing crises. He called for representation of Africa among the permanent as well as non-permanent members. This would correct a historic injustice, he said, noting that equitable geographical distribution and regional representation is of utmost importance. According to the envoy, the new permanent members should have the same rules as the original ones, including the veto right.<\/p>\n

Delegates from other African countries, including Ghana, Burundi, and Congo, called for the abolition or constraint of the veto rule, calling it anachronistic and ineffective.<\/p>\n

Vasily Nebenzia, Russia’s permanent representative to the United Nations, objected to the idea of curtailing the veto authority, arguing that its existence stimulates the Security Council members to seek balanced solutions. However, he supported calls for broader representation of developing countries that are in Africa, Asia, and Latin America.<\/p>\n
