Bhutan Prime Minister Tshering Tobgay addressed the 80th United Nations General Assembly session Saturday. He advocated for Security Council expansion to add India and Japan as permanent members. The leader emphasized transforming the UN into an effective organization that produces tangible outcomes rather than empty declarations. Tobgay described the current Security Council structure as outdated.
The Bhutanese official has repeatedly championed India's candidacy for permanent membership. He cited the nation's economic expansion, diplomatic influence and leadership within developing countries as strong credentials. Tobgay maintains the Security Council fails to represent modern global power dynamics. His remarks contribute to mounting international pressure for comprehensive UN institutional reform.
