UN will be more democratic if countries of Latin America are included
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said India plays an active role in a range of integration structures in South Asia including the United Nations as well as within the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). Earlier in September this year, while addressing the 77th UN General Assembly, Lavrov had said that the Security Council would be more democratic if countries from Africa, Asia, and Latin America were included.
In his address, he said that India and Brazil should be included in the Council for permanent membership. The Russian Foreign Minister said India and Brazil are promoting their applications to join the UN Security Council along with Japan and Germany, indicating multipolarity.
