UK 'Firmly' Backs Permanent Indian UN Security Council Membership - (Cameron)

The United Kingdom "firmly” supports Indian membership in the UN Security Council, British Prime Minister David Cameron said Thursday alongside Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi

Earlier in the day, Modi started his three-day visit to London.

“The UK firmly supports permanent membership for India on the United Nations Security Council,” Cameron said.

Many countries have called for reform of the UN Security Council, including Brazil, Germany, India, Japan, Ireland and Russia.

Last month, Russia's Permanent Representative to the United Nations Vitaly Churkin told the UN General Assembly that UN Security Council reform must be based on consensus.
