Must Reform Security Council, Says Guterres at UNGA - The Tribune
He said the 15-member body must reflect today’s power balance and give Africa permanent representation as divisions among veto holders persist.
- On Tuesday, Secretary-General Antonio Guterres delivered his final General Assembly address, urging world leaders to reform the 15-member Security Council to reflect today's world and address current geopolitical challenges.
- Guterres argued the Council remains deeply polarized among its five permanent members, reflecting power arrangements of 80 years ago rather than today's changing realities.
- Highlighting the lack of permanent African representation, Guterres called it the "most stunning example" of injustice, describing a 21st-century Security Council without it as "unjust and indefensible."
- India continues pushing for permanent Council status, arguing the 1945 structure is unfit for the 21st Century, while Guterres warned against the "Great Fracture" dividing the world into rival blocs.
- Concluding his nearly 35-minute address, Guterres emphasized the movement toward a multipolar world is "irreversible" and stressed no single power can solve today's challenges alone.
