Reforming SC to have no permanent seats requires Charter amendment which, whether under Art.108 or thru an Art.109 Gen'l Conf, would require ratification by 2/3 UN Members "including all" P5, i.e., all the P5 would have to agree to give up their permanent seats. Highly unlikely.

Great to host my fellow MDBs Heads colleagues at @the_IDB again! Happy to report that we're making solid progress in implementing our joint commitments of the MDBs. Our efforts are also being recognized by stakeholders across the board, with the #G20 Finance Ministers endorsing the roadmap for MDB reforms, which incorporates 14 of our 16 deliverables of the Viewpoint Note. Together we're delivering for more impact and scale, as a system, for countries and people.

The adoption of the Pact for the Future, the Global Digital Compact and the Declaration on Future Generations opens pathways to new possibilities and opportunities. We have unlocked the door to #OurCommonFuture. Now it is our common responsibility to walk through it.

#Africa demands 2 permanent & 2 non-permanent seats on the @UN #UNSC, for a total of 5 non-permanent. @_AfricanUnion would choose its permanent members. It wants the veto abolished or it must be extended to all new permanent members as a matter of #justice.
Replying to @AU_ECOSOCC
Africa, with 1.3 billion people and 28% of @UN membership, remains grossly underrepresented in the Security Council. This is a profound historical injustice that must be addressed. The call for reform is irrefutable. Through the African Common Position as espoused in the Ezulwini Consensus, Africa has articulated a clear and compelling vision and model for reform, one that ensures equitable representation and meaningful participation of #Africa in the #UNSC. -H.E. @PresidentBio (President of 🇸🇱 and the @UN Security Council (UNSC))

"Getting an agreement on the Pact of the Future would be a similar small victory, proving that UN member states have an interest in negotiation, despite their differences."

Good piece. Part of the issue is that the UN is like any other institution in that it is incentivised to move towards where it can have the most impact. But that's not what the UN's for, the UN exists to do the things only the UN can do - even when those impacts are much smaller

📢 NEW PUBLICATION ALERT: The Summit of the Future, the high-level summit of the UN scheduled for September 2024 expected to adopt commitment of UN member states for reform of the multilateral system, offers a unique opportunity for taking the policy process for the reform of the United Nations (UN) Security Council (UNSC) forward. Ahead of that, the African Union's Committee of Ten (C10) on the Reform of the UNSC is convening a ministerial meeting on 9-10 June in Algiers, Algeria. Our latest research report examines both how the C10 can position Africa to seize the current window of opportunity for UNSC reform and the kind of reform that both redresses the historical injustice suffered by Africa and makes the collective peace and security system fit for a multipolar world. 👉🏾shorturl.at/meOd7
