EAM Jaishankar’s Urgent Call: UN Faces Irrelevance Without Sweeping Reforms

In a powerful address, India’s External Affairs Minister, S. Jaishankar, underscored the critical need for immediate and comprehensive reforms within the United Nations. Jaishankar warned that without substantial changes, the global body risks losing its efficacy and becoming increasingly irrelevant in addressing contemporary international challenges. His remarks highlight a growing sentiment among many nations that the UN’s current structure and functioning are no longer adequate for a rapidly evolving world, calling for greater inclusivity and a more democratic decision-making process to reflect global realities.
