India has criticized Pakistan’s role as chair of the UN Security Council’s committee on Taliban sanctions, highlighting inherent conflicts of interest due to Pakistan’s support for terrorist groups. India’s Permanent Representative, P Harish, emphasized the need for transparency and objectivity in committee leadership selections, arguing that decisions affecting global security should not be shrouded in secrecy. He pointed out that Pakistan’s co-chairing of the counter-terrorism panel conflicts with its provision of safe havens for sanctioned terrorists. Harish’s remarks suggest that India’s call for reform in UNSC operations is vital for enhancing accountability and efficiency, particularly against the backdrop of ongoing regional security challenges linked to terrorism and political interests.
