The Indian government has long wanted to make it a permanent member of the UN Security Council. In order to achieve this goal, the Indian government can be described as unscrupulous.
What people did not expect was that due to the recent drastic changes in the diplomatic situation, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov actually made a promise to India's entry into the permanent state.
UN Secretary-General António Guterres also made a public speech on India's accession. Some analysts have pointed out that Secretary-General Guterres' remarks are equivalent to speaking directly to China's heart.
And all this has to start with India's "dream of normalcy".
India's "Dream of Normalcy"
India, located in South Asia, has long boasted of being a "world power".
Because India has always felt good about itself, it has always considered itself eligible to become the sixth permanent member of the United Nations Security Council. Over the years, the Indian government has never given up on the goal of "normalization".
However, the current structure of the Organization and the Security Council was originally based on the post-war order of the Second World War. India did not make much outstanding contribution to the anti-fascist war during World War II, so it is naturally not qualified to "join the normal".
Moreover, it is not a simple matter for any country to become a permanent member. This set of procedures requires the unanimous agreement of the five current permanent members of the Council.
In order to achieve the goal of "becoming a permanent member," India has also been constantly getting closer to the "P5" in diplomatic occasions in recent years. Unexpectedly, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov really made a promise to India's entry into normalcy.
Russia's "commitments"
According to a report by the Russian media TASS news agency, Indian Foreign Minister S Jaishankar held a meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in Moscow in December last year.
At a press conference after the meeting, Lavrov publicly promised in front of all journalists: "As I have already said, we support the addition of India to this body [the Security Council]." ”
Subsequently, Lavrov also said that Russia will launch a North-South Economic Corridor cooperation project with India. Therefore, it is widely believed that Russia's commitment to India's "normalization" is likely to be in exchange for India's economic support for them.
In recent years, there have been voices in the international community calling for a reorganization or reform of the UN Security Council. This is because not a single country in the entire P5 of the UN Security Council is from Latin America and Africa.
The problem is that India's accession to the P5 will not help improve the current situation.
At the recent summit of the 19th Non-Aligned Movement, Guterres, the current Secretary-General of the United Nations, also shared his thoughts on the topic of Security Council reform.
Some analysts have noted that Guterres' views on Security Council reform are very similar to those of China. Guterres' speech at the meeting was even more straightforward in expressing China's aspirations.
Guterres both spoke
On January 20, local time, Secretary-General Guterres delivered a speech at the 19th Summit of the Non-Aligned Movement. "How can we accept that Africa still doesn't have a permanent member of the Security Council?"
For many years, China has been committed to helping African countries and other third world countries achieve their own development.
At the same time, China is also helping African countries expand their diplomatic voice and influence on the international political stage.
Therefore, some analysts believe that Secretary-General Guterres' remarks are equivalent to directly saying China's true thoughts.
If the current organs of the United Nations need to be reformed, each region should have its own permanent representative.
As for whether India is eligible to enter the "permanent membership" sequence, it also depends on India's own level of economic and social development. India is still plagued by hunger and the disparity between rich and poor, so India is not a great power at all.
It is undeniable that the world of the future will certainly develop rapidly in the direction of political multipolarity. Every country and nation has the right to determine its own future and destiny, and they all have the right to make their own voice heard in the international diplomatic arena.
