Argentina Backs India’s Permanent UNSC Seat, Says World Order Has Changed Beyond 1945 Model

A major diplomatic endorsement has come India’s way. Argentina has openly backed India’s bid for a permanent seat in the UN Security Council, calling the aspiration “correct” and aligned with today’s global realities. Argentina’s envoy said the UNSC still mirrors the post-World War II order, not the multipolar world of today. With India emerging as a leading economic and political power, its absence from the Security Council undermines the institution’s credibility. While global consensus on reform remains difficult, Argentina’s support signals a wider shift in thinking, especially among emerging economies. The envoy also stressed growing India–Argentina ties, with trade expanding rapidly and cooperation deepening in food and energy security.
