Answer questions from the passage below: The UN was founded as a successor to the League of Nations. The UN's objective is to prevent international conflict and to facilitate cooperation among states. Two basic kinds of reforms are faced by the UN: reform of the organization's structures and processes; and a review of the issues that fall within the jurisdiction of the organization. One of India's major concerns has been the composition of the Security Council, which has remained largely static while the UN General Assembly membership has expanded considerably. It argues that an expanded Council, with more representation, will enjoy greater support in the world community. The membership of the UN Security Council was expanded from 11 to 15 in 1965. But there is no change in the number of permanent members. Not surprisingly, India itself wishes to be a permanent member of a restructured UN. India is the world's largest democracy. India has participated in virtually all the initiatives of the UN. Its role in the UN's peacekeeping efforts is a long and substantial one. |
