20 states making greater contribution to peace and security than the four pushing for permanent seat
UNITED NATIONS - Pakistan , member of the Uniting for Consensus group which opposes new permanent members in the U.N. Security Council, has reaffirmed its demand for adding more non-permanent seats to the 15-member body so as to make it more effective, representative and accountable.
Full-scale negotiations to reform the Security Council began in the General Assembly in February 2009 on five key areas — the categories of membership, the question of veto, regional representation, size of an enlarged Security Council and working methods of the council and its relationship with the General Assembly.
The Security Council is currently composed of five permanent members — Britain, China, France, Russia and the United States — and 10 non-permanent members elected to two-year terms. “Any country seeking a more frequent presence on the Security Council should do so by subjecting itself to the democratic process of periodic election by the General Assembly,” the Pakistani envoy said.
“Indeed, new individual permanent members would expand the ‘game of thrones’ in the Security Council and intensify the prospects of its paralysis and dysfunction,” he said.
