Question:

Which among the following was not a part of the resolution adopted by the United Nation's General Assembly in 1992?

Options:

The Security Council no longer represents contemporary political realities.

The decisions of the Security Council reflect global values and interests.

The Security Council lacks equitable representation.

The Security Council is dominated by a few powers.

Correct Answer:

The decisions of the Security Council reflect global values and interests.

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (2) → The decisions of the Security Council reflect global values and interests.

In 1992, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution. The resolution reflected three main complaints: 

  • The Security Council no longer represents contemporary political realities.
  • Its decisions reflect only Western values and interests and are dominated by a few powers.
  • It lacks equitable representation.

The very premise of this resolution and the subsequent discussions was that the Council did not adequately represent the interests and realities of the contemporary world.
