French President Emmanuel Macron backed India's bid for a permanent seat on the UN Security Council (UNSC) during his speech at the UN General Assembly. Macron emphasized the need for UNSC reform, advocating the inclusion of India, Brazil, Japan, Germany, and two African nations to make the body more representative. Macron’s comments align with past calls from world leaders, including Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who highlighted the lack of geographic balance in the UNSC, where only five nations currently hold permanent seats.
