Need to reform UN, define terrorism: PM Modi

[ad_1]

Hiroshima: In the G-7 meeting, Prime Minister Narendra Modi insisted on reforms in the United Nations and the Security Council, saying that these institutions are miles away from the reality of the world today. It needs a lot of improvement now. If these institutions do not reflect the realities of today’s world, they will remain mere ‘dialogue forums’. Along with this, Modi also insisted on defining terrorism.

Meeting with PM Sunak fruitful: Modi reviews India-UK talks on ambitious FTA

Addressing a session on the last day of the G-7 summit in Japan, Prime Minister Modi pointed out the shortcomings of the G-7, the organization of the world’s richest democratic countries, and the United Nations. He said, it is a matter of analysis that why do we have to talk about peace and stability at different forums? The United Nations was established with the idea of ​​establishing peace in the world, but the same United Nations is failing to stop conflicts in the world today.

Prime Minister Modi said that we have not yet been able to define terrorism which has spread all over the world. Even the definition of terrorism could not be accepted in the United Nations. If we introspect, one thing becomes clear that the organization formed in the last century is not compatible with today’s 21st century systems. That’s why major institutions like the United Nations need to be reformed. They also have to be the voice of the less developed countries. Otherwise we will only keep talking about ending conflicts.

On the sidelines of the G-7 meeting, Prime Minister Modi held a bilateral meeting with British PM Rishi Sunak on Sunday, in which the two leaders reviewed the process of negotiating an ‘ambitious’ free trade agreement and agreed to take the talks forward.
