Permanent Representative of India at United Nations Security Council, TS Tirumurti on January 08 informed that India will chair 3 key subsidiary bodies of UN Security Council.
The three committees are Taliban Sanctions Committee, Counter-Terrorism Committee (for 2022) and Libya Sanctions committee.
"Taliban Sanctions Committee has always been a high priority for India keeping in minds our strong interest and commitment to peace, security, development and progress of Afghanistan.
Our chairing this committee at this juncture will help keep the focus on the presence of terrorists and their sponsors threatening the peace process in Afghanistan.

Pakistan accuses India of "extra-judicial and extra-territorial" assassinations in a complaint to the UN Security Council, alleging breaches of international law and sovereignty. Despite India's denial, Pakistan persists in its accusations, while grappling with its own internal turmoil fueled by terrorism. India rebuts Pakistan's claims, highlighting Pakistan's dubious track record and challenging its narrative on the global stage.

The resolution would have made Palestine
the 194th member of the United Nations. .
Deputy Ambassador Robert Wood stressed to the
Security Council that the U.S. veto of the resolution... .
... “does not reflect opposition to Palestinian statehood
but instead is an acknowledgment that it will only
come from direct negotiations between the parties.”.
Similarly, deputy State Department
spokesman Vedant Patel said that the U.S. has...
... “been very clear consistently that premature actions
in New York — even with the best intentions — will
not achieve statehood for the Palestinian people.”.
In response to the failed vote, Palestinian U.N.
Ambassador Riyad Mansour told the council that
the decision would not deter the Palestinian people.
The fact that this resolution did not
pass will not break our will and it
will not defeat our determination, Riyad Mansour, Palestinian U.N. Ambassador, via Associated Press.
We will not stop in our effort.
The state of Palestine is inevitable.
It is real. Perhaps they see it as
far away, but we see it as near, Riyad Mansour, Palestinian U.N. Ambassador, via Associated Press
