UNGA: South African President Cyril Ramphosa Calls UNSC "Unfit"; Urges Reforms | Firstpost Africa

South Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa has reiterated calls for reforms at the UN Security Council. During his address at the ongoing United Nations General Assembly session, he said the UNSC is no longer fit to address the emerging global challenges. The South African President added that placing the fate of the world's security in the hands of a select few when a vast majority bears the brunt of growing threats is unjust, unfair and unsustainable. Ramaphosa welcomed Washington's support for two permanent seats for African nations on the UNSC, however he said that refusing them veto powers means they become second-class citizens once again. Watch for more details.
