The United Nations Security Council is composed of five permanent members and ten non-permanent members.
The ten non-permanent members serve two-year terms. According to the principle of geographical distribution, each election of five new members must include three countries from Asia and Africa, one from Eastern Europe, and one from Latin America or the Caribbean Region.
The election requires a two-thirds majority vote from the General Assembly.
At this moment, inside the United Nations Security Council chamber, in addition to the representatives of the five permanent members, there were also representatives from the non-permanent member states: Belgium, Côte d'Ivoire, Dominica, Equatorial Guinea, Germany, Indonesia, Kuwait, Peru, Poland, and South Africa.
The entire room held only thirty or forty people, all of them diplomatic elites from their respective nations.
Everyone's phones were buzzing, but what they saw was different.
