India on Monday launched its official campaign for a non-permanent seat at the UN Security Council for the 2028-29 term.
External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar launched India’s official campaign ‘Shanti: India for the United Nations Security Council 2028-29. Norms, Trust, Integrity’ for the two-year tenure at a special event in the UN headquarters attended by UN envoys, diplomats and officials.
India said its approach to the United Nations is rooted in ‘SHANTI: Securing Holistic Advancement through Norms, Trust, Integrity.’ India last sat at the UN horseshoe table for the 2021-22 term.
Elections for the 2028-29 term will be conducted in June next year, when India and Tajikistan will compete for the sole seat in the Asia-Pacific Group category.
