India on Thursday sharpened its push for sweeping reforms of global institutions, with External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar warning that the effectiveness and credibility of the United Nations would remain “constrained” without meaningful changes, including an expansion of the UN Security Council.
Addressing the BRICS session on reforms of global governance and the multilateral system, Jaishankar said the structures underpinning global governance had failed to keep pace with a world that is now “more interconnected, complex, and multipolar” than when many international institutions were first created.
