"India elected to the highest UN statistical body for a 4-year term beginning on 1 January 2024! Congrats Team- Permanent Mission of India to the UN, for coming through so strongly in a competitive election." EAM Dr S Jaishankar.
Why is it a big deal? The main competition was between India & China, Chinese cheque book gave it just 19 out of 53 votes, while India's diplomacy alone received a resounding 46 out of 53 votes.
Last week, I mentioned IMF bailouts were issued to both Sri Lanka & Bangladesh which was backed by India & China. While Chinese alone backed Pakistan hasn't received any bailouts even after months of pressure.
