India narrowing differences in UNSC, helped shape discussions on Afghanistan, Myanmar, says Ambassador T.S. Tirumurti.
India has "been a bridge" in a polarised UN Security Council, narrowing differences and helping shape the Council's statements, discussions on Afghanistan and Myanmar, pushing for greater meeting of minds to address humanitarian crisis in Syria and focusing on terrorism, India’s envoy to the UN said. With India completing three months as an elected non-permanent member of the 15-nation Security Council, the country’s Permanent Representative to the UN Ambassador T S Tirumurti said India has been able to bring a “unique perspective” to discussions in the Council. “You can call this an Indian perspective if you like. It has been an intensive period,” Mr. Tirumurti told PTI. He noted that India got into a Security Council which had been polarised sharply in the recent past.More Related News
