On June 6, members of the UN General Assembly elected non-permanent members of the UN Security Council for 2024-2025. Following the vote, Algeria, Guyana, the Republic of Korea, Sierra Leone and Slovenia will sit on the UN Security Council during the upcoming period.

We hope that during their work at this key body of the UN system the newly elected members will facilitate the long-term resolution of the most important crises of our time, help strengthen the central coordinating role of the UN in global affairs, as well as make the Organisation more effective, and contribute to the formation of a truly equitable multipolar world order based on the goals and principles of the UN Charter and other fundamental norms of international law.

The Russian Federation, a permanent member of the UN Security Council, is ready for mutually respectful cooperation with the new non-permanent members in maintaining international peace and security. We are convinced that this would meet the interests of the entire international community.
