    • Agencies Tags : Unsc, Security Council, US, India Posted: Thursday , Jul 09, 2009 at 1511 hrs New Delhi:

    Government on Thursday said that the United States has not expressed support for a permanent seat for India in an expanded United Nations Security Council. "While the US has stated in the UN that it supports expansion of the Security Council in both permanent and non-permanent categories, it has not expressed support for a permanent seat for India in the expanded Security Council," External Affairs Minister S M Krishna told the Rajya Sabha in a written reply.

    He said the government has discussed expansion of the UN Security Council and India's aspiration to be a permanent member of an expanded Security Council with the US administrations, including the current one.

    Permanent Seat for India on the Security CouncilBy: Bala Varadarajan | 03-Sep-2009 Reply | Forward Permanent seat on the Security Council implies that the Country is strong and can play role on the world stage to provide security to the rest of the world. India is not even in a position to protect the lives of its own citizens and has allowed a rogue state (i.e Pakistan) to get nucleur capability. Terrorists in Pakistan with the help of the Government machinery can strike at will anywhere in India. Permanent seat for India will make a mockery of the Security Council.

    US support for UNSC membershipBy: S. Kumar | 02-Aug-2009 Reply | Forward Should India and its "intellectual" media be surprised by this news? Why would the USA like to treat India as a co-equal if the honourable Indian leaders have already agreed to be treated as a subservient nation, as indicated by the Sharm declaration and India-US deal, which they of course thought would serve India's "national" interest? Is it not a fact that India was one of the last nations to be contacted by the new US President? Does not it appear that India have already granted the USA the right to consider itself as a "Yes Sir" nation in a silver platter?
    UNSCBy: Ramesh Chhabra | 10-Jul-2009 Reply | Forward India has right for UNSC seat. Lot of countries is agreed for full support to India for UNSC seat. In case US did not support for UNSC seat, India should cancel N-deal with US. .
