Addressing the last scheduled meeting of the UNSC of the year and India's term at the council, India's Permanent Representative to the UN, Ruchira Kamboj said, "During the last two years, we spoke out in support of peace, security and prosperity. We did not hesitate in raising our voices against the common enemies of humanity, such as terrorism. We were conscious that when we spoke in the Security Council, we were speaking on behalf of 1.4 billion Indians or one 6th of humanity. But we are also conscious of the fact that we were also the voice of the Global South during our tenure.”
