Biden to Raise Issue of Making Amendments to UN Security Council's Structure, Says White House
MOSCOW (Sputnik) - US President Joe Biden intends to raise the issue of changes to the architecture of the UN Security Council next week, National Security Council Strategic Communications Coordinator John Kirby said.
"I think President Biden, and you will hear him talk about this a little bit more next week, we have been clear that we believe that it is time to take a look at the architecture of the Security Council. We believe it should be more inclusive and more comprehensive," Kirby said in an interview with a British newspaper.
When asked if this means that Washington will propose changing the veto rules or the membership structure, Kirby said "we just think it’s time to have a discussion about the architecture in the organization. I think President Biden, the United States, would support more members."
