New York (US), December 15 (ANI): The UK, France and UAE on December 14 extended their support for India's permanent membership at the United Nations Security Council (UNSC). UK Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Dame Barbara Woodward said, "The Security Council must as others have said become more representative of the world today and the UK has long called for its expansion in both the permanent and non-permanent categories, as the UK Foreign Secretary publicly reiterated this week - we support new permanent seats for Brazil, Germany, India and Japan." Nicolas de Riviere, Permanent Representative of France to the UN said, "We support an expansion of the Security Council to take into account the emergence of new powers that have the world and the ability to shoulder the responsibility of a permanent presence on Security Council. France thus supports the candidacies of Germany, Brazil, India and Japan as permanent members." Both countries supported India's bid for permanent membership in the reformed Security Council. UAE Minister Noura Bint Mohammed said, “Congratulate you and the Indian mission at very successful 8th term on the Security Council. Your voice at this chamber is necessary and UAE reiterates its endorsement of India's bid for permanent membership of the reformed UNSC.”
