Serbia backs UN reform, broader Security Council representation – Vučić
The United Nations and its Security Council urgently need reforms to adapt to the realities of the modern world.
Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić addressed the UN General Assembly on behalf of his country, expressing support for the United Nations and advocating for its reform to enhance effectiveness. Vučić emphasized the need for a more representative Security Council, particularly through increased representation from developing nations, particularly those from Africa, and greater regional inclusivity.
He specifically called for an additional seat for the Eastern European Group. Vučić stressed that without a return to the agreed principles, Serbia would not expect any progress in the UN's concrete results. The 81st UN General Assembly is currently underway in New York, drawing high-level debates from over 130 heads of state and government.
