Finland's President Calls for UN Security Council Reform

Alexander Stubb advocates abolishing veto power and suspending members engaged in illegal wars, citing Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

President Alexander Stubb proposes expanding the number of permanent members on the UN Security Council from five to ten, including additional seats for Latin America, Africa, and Asia.
Stubb argues that no single state should have veto power in the UN Security Council to prevent geopolitical deadlocks on critical issues.
He calls for the suspension of any member state engaged in illegal wars, specifically mentioning Russia's actions in Ukraine.
Stubb emphasizes the need for greater representation from countries in the global South to maintain their support for the United Nations.
He urges Western nations to lift restrictions on donated arms to Ukraine and dismisses Russian nuclear threats as unlikely to be supported by the global community.
